The additional expense of becoming an agent is prohibitive for me.

I may pick that up next, just wanted to get some additional options.As the title says, post your favorite or most influential Multi-family/commercial investing book here.

I honestly feel that sometimes the listing agents are waiting for an exclusive offer and not even submitting ours.

@Derek LesterFollowing the fine example of @Joel Florek, let me just say that different things work for different types of investors and in addition every area is different.

Hello BiggerPockets community,I'm a new to real estate and was hoping to get some advice on AirBNBing in Asheville NC.The reason for my inquiry is because I'm hoping to buy a house and use AirBNB to househack it.If any additional info is needed please let me know.Any advice would be greatly appreciated.Thank You,Evan Morales

@Lino B. that is an additional indictment of your managerial skills.Serve them with a notice to cease and quit.

So should each additional LLC have it's own Name?

That would be a very appropriate 1031 exchange scenario.If you go the 1031 route you will pay no tax and that tax will go forward as additional purchasing power for you. 

I thought with the paid membership there was some exclusivity but there isn't.

The difference in costs was close to an additional 600 per unit.
