Here in WA yes they all charge around a 7% mark up on all repairs.

If this issue is really important to you I would certainly suggest that you research the applicable laws in the markets that interest you.Good luck with your investments, hope to see you post a "success story " or two in the future.Cheers,Mark

We do value getting acquainted so we engage in 5 to 10 minutes phone conversations when they contact us, we mark down their names, what we spoke about, and ask the same questions when they show up.

@Mark Creason That's helpful Mark. 

@Mark Marinaccio Congratulations on taking action and moving forward!
