Having one unit vacant or coming to a lease end date is a great way to attract more buyer to your listing.  

They're aiming to make things more transparent and fair, but as you can imagine, there's a mix of challenges and opportunities coming our way.One of the big talks is about the potential shift away from MLS listings.

Here is my understanding... the underwriter was a hard money lender who required the house to be put into an LLC initially so that he could use the estimated "rental" income as the way to get approved for the loan.

I recently came across a company recommended by a friend, but my initial contact, whom I connected with via Facebook, is no longer active, raising some concerns.

You can also browse real estate platforms like Zillow or Realtor.com for potential listings in your desired area.

I wouldn't necessarily say that this shift is here to stay, but we definitely have to make some changes to our acquisition process to accommodate creative deals and novations.This shift is due to the saturation of the major markets, resulting in newcomers in the business offering too much for properties and not delivering on those promises, realtors promising too much for listings only to have them heavily decreased or canceled six months later, and the small increase in supply that we have experienced since the beginning of the year.But yes!

Here are some questions I ask myself when underwriting properties, and speaking with potential investors.What am I working with as my initial investment ( equity) I am putting in? 

A main target of these thieves/squatters are houses being listed and sitting vacant.

Today, I want to take this opportunity to ​clarify some things and share what is going to change.Under the current compensation model, a seller typically pays a commission of 5% or 6% to their listing agent.
