We found a few companies here in Texas & their fees range from $850-950 per transaction.

By the way you can buy houses in south Jackson in the 30-35K range without a leaky roof.

My Robbinsdale duplex rents for $1250/unit and I bought it for $195k.As an agent & investor, I'm viewing duplexes in western suburbs (Hopkins, Crystal, Golden Valley, etc) going between $230-290k with rents in the range you listed for the 400k properties.So...yeah...to me...you are right in saying it is too high.  

I am hunting Memphis right now for a lender that will do a portfolio loan for an investor looking to buy 10 properties, hoping for that elusive 5% range rate even if its a 5 year arm.  

The value range would then be based on $9,300, at 25%= 2,318 or up to 75% being 6,954.

The only exception I found was to have a "test range" outside of a free standing gun dealership only to be used limitedly for prospective buyers to test a handgun, and then only with the larger and harder to find containers. 

If you send me some details (price range, number of bedrooms etc.)

I have no knowledge of Alsip, IL until now House price: 117KI saw comps on zillow ranging from 140K to 225K.

Lots of cash chasing a shrinking inventory here.  

Part will depend on the price range you're buying and selling....under $200k they're earning their money....under $100k, you need to pay me extra, no matter how many you do.
