Critical Update: Waiting too long for the Fed to cut rates could significantly impact your approval chances.

So, yes, you can absolutely get a traditional loan using 20% down an receive a loan with lower closing costs and a lower interest rate...or you could go the other route.Hope that makes sense how I am describing it. 

Can agents get commissions/referral fees for their own purchases out of state?

Im looking to move our 5 (soon to be 17) short term rentals over from being solely listed on airbnb, to a comprehensive PMS system to save on airbnb fees and build some efficiencies into our workflow.

They seem to just forward emails and pay vendors and collect the assessment fees.

When taking applications, should I charge a fee to cover background, credit, and employment checks? 

And what resources/websites do you like use to analyze a market for things like: job growth, population growth, unemployment rates, crime rate, what big companies/firms are there/moving in, etc.? 

In times such as this with high interest rates, or to have a competative offer, you might offer all cash at a lower price with a short closing time frame to a seller in order to get a good deal.

Once that amount is adjusted you'll have a loan payment updated based off of the rate and terms of the loan. 2) In you long-term expense estimates I don't see any assumptions for property management (7-10%), repairs/maintenance (7-10%), and vacancy (5%) so I would re-run your estimates based off of new expenses.

Other popular fees are maintenance fees, release fees, eviction fees, inspection fees, and the list goes on and on.
