Since they are solely transaction based and don't have to deal with tenants after they move in:1) Many are only interested in getting their commission and moving on2) Many think they are doing everyone a favor by working with a lease client, because they could be making so much more working on sales transactions3) Many complain about screening processes as they only see them as:---Potentially costing them their commission if their client isn't approved or finds something else during the process---Slowing down their commission payment4) NEVER allow an agent to screen a leasing prospect as they have a conflict of interest!

There doesn't seem to be a lot of MTRs (rooms and entire units) in the area just based on initial searches on Airbnb and Redfin, but I understand this isn't the only indicator of demand.

Quartz makes sense for a high end unit/ fancy neighborhood where you can and will attract tenants willing to pay more for them.Repainting is often a no brainer, but could be based on the current conditions as to whether or it is needed.I agree with Melanie on researching the washer/dryer comps.

@Steve Ford the points is usually based on your credit and your downpayment. 

I use a lot of different cards based on the best categories on my spending for cash back/miles, but one under the radar for rental investors that gives 5% cash back on up to $2,000 spending per quarter on utilities category when chosen is the US bank cash+ card.I max out on utilities spending with the card every quarter.

Once you begin to generate leads that fit their recent purchases/want to buy, run the numbers based on the ARV after repair value for after when they develop/fix n flip and subtract cost of build/repair, your assignment fee, and the original cost of the contract.

Are there any services that simply do that for a flat fee? 

I will qualify for REP status based on STR loophole.
