As a seller would you question this and renegotiate a lower percentage of purchase price (3% to listing firm only), or request it is a more even split?

This is something to consult with an attorney about.

But I am open to it if I can use the security deposit to replace the carpet (not sure to what extent it is legal).I was thinking of getting landlord rental protection from Zillow to cover pet costs but my premium will probably shoot up since the place is carpeted.Would love your thoughts on this dilemma!

There were some costs involved for demolition, making an application and a survey coming in around $30,000.One of the best parts of this deal was the “return on time”.

I’m on the west coast so pools are often a selling point and can charge more for this feature.

Assuming this is correct, how are investors able to get decent cash flow out of a rental?

So far, so good, but we've only had tenants in there for about a month at this point.  

I have had this job for 3 years.

Happy to answer any questions you may have starting out with this process. 

I would appreciate any advice on this.
