By publicly advertising/marketing a property for sale they are practicing real estate without a license, and subject to all fines and penalties associated with doing so.6. 

Advertising the rental is the first step in getting the right people to apply.

After researching online, seems like all of the banks want you to come in the branch, however I would prefer to do it online and submit all the required documents electronically. 

Not everyone wants or needs their hand held to sell a house, and if they're willing to do all the work to get it sold, then they should keep the portion of the commission that they would otherwise have paid to an agent.To make it a little clearer for you: the seller is paying money to an MLS member broker in order to advertise their property to other agents, who they will gladly pay if they bring a buyer to the table. 

It turned out to be an advertisement for a real estate education program. 

We also have a clause in our early termination agreement that we can charge a little extra for advertising, cleaning, showings, etc...basically anything that required to find a new tenant.

I was curious if anyone is currently using solar power as a means to advertise lower rental costs to new renters, or if the strategy of implementing solar to decrease rental costs has been done by anyone else yet?

Obviously, I believe strongly in using advertising.

Maybe they don't have a computer or cell phone, or they don't trust electronic payments.

.- I heard famous injury attorney on my church radio today )if I understood correctly) advertising to file for lawsuits related to pipes older than 1975 not being re-plumbed by investors..so no shortcuts..extreme diligence.
