I will also be putting extra money toward the principle and can pay the house off in 3-5 years.

Our students seem to value the knowledge they learn and ability to use those principles and tools for the rest of their investing journey, whether with FlipSystem or not.

@Blair Bennett You need to calculate your Return On Equity ((Cash Flow + Principle Paydown + Projected Appreciation)/Equity).

I feel like giving the listing agent's a hair more may be the best of both worlds, but that's the most plain sighted answer. 

By definition and generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) you should not include these in NOI.  

.- Charging owners for pics- Charing inflated application fees to make, you know, some money for their time spent- Some even charge tenants MoveIn Fees and other charges to make money.So, don't be short-sighted and expect PMCs to work for free!

@Michelle P Stafford, Any type of calculation of rent that includes a consideration of what principle they would have paid if they bought it, or corresponds to a payment amount of a loan could be considered an equitable interest in the real estate. 

Appreciation has been outta sight.

We advertise sight unseen, remote investing, and this is absolutely true in my case.

Unbelievable how short-sighted you are, pinching pennies, but losing dollars.
