I own two fully paid out single family homes through a 1031 exchange, my original thought process is to keep them long term since that's been what I've done in the past, however I am contemplating changing my strategy since I'm seeing a lot of movement in the local real estate market that people are flipping them within a month of their purchase on the home. 

Many homes, their design and furnishings are near original or quite dated.

They will have guides and rules...and of course, fees...for you but you can reach out to each one to find out more information. 

Take clear pictures and write down everything.You can charge a fair storage fee, but don't overdo it.

Properties in ny are to be transferred in original condition at time of showing.  

A broker, acting as a broker under the guidelines of regulatory agencies, acting with the knowledge that they have a duty and responsibility bound by their licensing and being paid a traditional brokerage fee with full disclosure on the HUD of the amount is perfectly fine and there is no difference. 

These LOCs will be unsecured and if it means anything, we have no business/investment history, as we're just starting; perhaps lower fee LOCs can be attained from a proven business with a history, or perhaps these fees are high independent of that?
