If you remove your blinders for a minute you may actually find out that they are legit and are trying to do things the right way.Your statement above is flat-out wrong too.

And I am pretty certain Chicago no longer has R2 designation.If it is a non-conforming 3 flat, it can be an issue when you get a building permit or during the triennial tax assessment or any number of situations.

Ebay charges a flat fee to list real estate.

Vacancy, maintenance, capital expenses, legal fees, evictions, tenant damage in excess of security deposits, utilities (at least when its vacant, property management (even if you do it yourself, your time is worth something.)

Engineers were paid as a percentage of total estimated infrustructure costs, utilities and environmental fees being more of a flat fee.

At that point the lender will allow only those amounts paid in excess of FMR to be allowed as a credit toward the purchase price.

My experience with a flat fee service involved the buyer's agent too.

Use the excess to pay off additional principal each month.

It is also quite easy to collect and gets rid of the necessity for people to file tax returns.I agree with you that the double-taxation of dividends encourages unnecessary leverage and, perhaps, also excessive hoarding of cash by companies.

or is it better to sell the leads for a flat rate?
