I do not want to make the agent feel uncomfortable or annoyed with me because I’m looking around with no intention of buying (obviously) but I like to know my market and I want to see some of the houses to get a good idea of how updated the homes are, and what people remodeled etc.

Even though, realistically speaking, if I refi my house for a 30 year total 206k between current mortgage and cash out the payment will be very similar, cash flow won’t change much.

Its obvious to me that those people have never truly been broke.

The more doors, the more cash flow.That is obviously my very simplified strategy.

.- As others have stated, total cost to maintain your license annually is ~$2,000 worst case, depending on your brokerage setup, etc.

Looking for a great insurance agency at a reasonable price for 11 total units.

This scam was pretty obvious but some might not be.

Yes, commercial investors can have numerous loans...totaling in the hundreds of millions. 

There are some like this that are more obvious, like a 1480 SF 3/1 that sold for $30,000, but you can see in the pictures that the windows are boarded up.
