To help you in your search: be sure to find an accountant that is willing to grow with you, and is not too high priced fee wise.

Now, plenty of agents out there will see this as a way to double their commission, and they will push to make the deal happen, which is not ethical or legal.As an agent, I don't like dual agency, and I would rather get a referral fee by sending the buyer to another agent so that I can do my job of representing the seller, which is what they are paying for.

If they can be compared what factors do I take into consideration? 

Philly is different, because there are lots of political, crime, and other factors dealing with low demand. 

The number one factor in your profitability is going to be the operator for your property.

One other thought - avoid PMs that ask for an on-boarding fee.

Factors like your home's size, location, and any improvements made play a role.

If my plans were to flip it for a modest profit no way would I invest many thousands of dollars in attorneys fees just to possibly achieve that goal.

So they can earn commissions, but can't actively participate, only earning referral fees.
