The country is the economic powerhouse of Europe, with a highly diversified economy driven by strong industrial, automotive, and technological sectors.

I think it is fair to say that there is somewhat of a tradeoff between markets that provide positive cash flow on day one and relatively high appreciation-based markets.

I have gone lower before for high producing properties. 

Since you are in an expensive market, commissions will also be high so you should be able to cover all of your expenses with just 1 deal basically, maybe 2. 

the company I went with was 12k and performed high quality work.

Housing prices are high, mortgage rates are high, and competition is fierce so revenue is way downIt’s one thing if you bought a while back like many of us did, so your cost basis is much lower.

We bought a property that we feel is assessed by the our local government too high.

If it's a high dollar home, then no more than $1,000.

Quote from @Jimmy Rojas: I live in Arizona and homes here are sky high, youd be lucky to get %6 interest rate, I would be a 1st time home buyer, apart from being 1099 employed would Trumps real estate plans benefit the little guys like me? 

I would suggest the same thing to my own daughter.Heck, I have found out many of my members at MREI paid 40-50k to one of the high end "gurus".
