I have properties in the Buffalo area (a mix of long term and short term) but was looking into Syracuse also, so would be interested to hear the responses.  

The short answer is being a middleman between a buyer and seller and you keep the difference in price.

At that point in time, we can just list the property and sell it. we have long-term capital gains rather than short-term capital gains, we would have probably experienced some appreciation during that time.

Bingo: you will get to see all your competitors, their pictures, their amenities, their descriptions and their PRICING.

You can send a short response and then flag it as spam.

To make this short and sweet investor “mind-like” agents are rare, in the residential sector, commercial is a different ballgame but for a regular local agent it’s rare to find one.

Also thank you for the great description of your business and its history and inner workings.

Here’s the situation:Purchase Price: $540,000Down Payment: 20%Mortgage Rate: 7.125% (30-year fixed)Monthly Expenses (Mortgage, HOA, Taxes, Insurance): $3,706Realistic Max Rent: $3,000As you can see, I’m currently short $706/month even with max rent.

Originally, the entire price of the academy would be refunded if you invested with RTR, but from what I can tell that has now dropped from 100% to only 90% refund (not sure why they dropped it so shortly after launching).

I'd rather keep the sub-3% rate for now and finance other properties conventionally for the short term.
