Hi @Christopher BellI think when you don't write on specific people tend to pass on the requests. it is too broad just saying hey I am looking for a house.You might get more answers with specifics.Good Luck!!!

@Sang Nguyen You're jumping right into the belly of the beast.  

The $700 GE 18-cubic-foot just doesn't need that much juice

The emotional juice to keep you going in this crazy business...

@Lee Bell is most correct.

If you increase those three expenses, you're probably closer to breaking even on this property, which in my opinion - the juice isn't worth the squeeze. 

Not sure the juice is worth the squeeze for many.

Or we might go belly up tomorrow.

Taylor, Douglas, Samson, Fairfax are all no name brokerages with low fees to hang your license at if you feel like you wont really be doing any business.The other question is....is the juice worth the squeeze.

Ask some local realtors/friends/facebook for references, pick guys up in the parking lot at the Home Depot in the morning, hang out at local hardware stores, stoop to craigslist, or do like I do and hire your redheaded stepson as an assistant, snort some go-go juice and get it done yourself.
