There are asset protection companies who make lots of money off this - I talked to one who said it's $13,000 (for 4 properties) to set up layers of protection then annual fees after this. 

1.7 % of Loan Amount (Points) - $6,035underwriting fees - $1,400Are the above fees reasonable or not for refinancing a mortgage?

For example, we might arrange a shorter penalty period or reduced fees if you expect to exit the property within a specific timeframe.Ultimately, the key is aligning your financing terms with your exit strategy.

My question pertains to impact fees. 

I’m considering having a lawyer send them a certified letter, though I know that will still come with a significant fee, which is still preferable to full service.

That is a cheap pet fee and good cancellation. 

Your policy may also cover soft costs like permit fees and legal expenses caused by delays.

It allows them to keep those afloat and can collect fees on that side by retaining ownership of the deal. 

We’re open to offering a consulting fee or hiring for this expertise.Any advice, resources, or referrals are greatly appreciated!

I'm looking at it on my rental software and there is also a fee for it which is the main deterrent for me currently.
