It's why most large landlords use their own in-house tools/software they pay someone a one time fee to setup for them and then hand off. 

I hope to net around $800k after fees and closing costs.

Received a letter that they are more than doubling my monthly fee + a $50 meter reading fee, and unfortunately this is a cost that the state does not allow us to pass along to the tenant!

Any bank fees.  

This structure simplifies management, centralizes ownership, and provides an extra layer of liability protection.Tax-wise, the state where each property is located will still require income tax reporting and LLC fees.

No one should ever ask someone for up front fees except appraisal fees paid directly to the appraiser...not the lender.

Strategic Purchase: Acquired a discounted double lot below market value with a $17k impact fee credit.Custom Design: Built a 6-bed, 5-bath home tailored for co-living or multi-gen use, maximizing tenant appeal.Efficient Management: Managed construction, and self-managed operations to minimize costs.Premium Marketing: Furnished the property and used multiple platforms to attract quality tenants quickly, achieving full occupancy.What was the outcome?

Although I probably get killed on transaction fees which is part of why I am not pulling the trigger (along with lack of time to execute well).There are games you can play for increasing your returns in the stock market (sector rotations, rebalancing, being a good company picker) but you lack operational control. 

Is there anyone that offers a service or fee to stand in for you at an auction if you are out of state and can't make it there at that time? 

The mortgage company gets paid off first, then in a traditional sale, the rest minus agent fees and utilities and closing costs goes to the seller.
