I’m a DIYer who is really needing an extra set of hands for most things.

If they are putting the property in major outlets including WSJ, NYT and sharing the property all over then sometimes its better to pay an extra point, but the 6% is for both buyer and seller.

Where would a PMC get the extra money to hire more staff?

.: What are you hoping to get out of the extra time, work and costs of having the LLC?

We get an extra 3 deals a month from it.

We had to enter in holding costs, holding time (time value of the money), ARVs, rehab costs, a contingency reserve (a little extra to cover unforseen stuff), a reasonable profit margin, etc to get to a "Strike Price" as we call it.

Everything else in their screening was great and they agreed to extra deposit.

It may sound nice to pay a 6% management fee but the extra fees can add up to be more than the other company that charges 10% with no additional fees.

during the draw period (typically) you won't even be paying down principal unless you make extra payments.so unless you have cash i would wait. 

And you have taken the extra 150 hours required for the broker's license?
