Between technology, the media coverage and the settlement itself, while the vast majority of sales will probably still be on market (MLS itself could have some issues going forward as a result of this settlement) but on the margins there will be an uptick of fsbo, of discount brokerages, again it won’t fundamentally change the majority of transactions but I expect the housing market to get even weirder than it already has been the past few years. it is invitation for the industry to be transformed, whether FSBO would be king, whether flat fee agent is rising, whether zillow or homes.com would be offering something revolutionary, that would be something new.the very fact that price fixing is gone is that, price fixing is gone.

I have a small amount of investment (inspections) in it now.

The loan amount is within the standard loan limit for a 4-unit.

I want to offer in the ball park of $370,00o to test waters have them meet me in the middle around 390,000 with a fixed rate 30 year 6.75%.

I like to spread relatively small amounts ($5K/month) across many property types, many states, many syndicators.

If you at least have a decent amount time, then you can try to find low hanging fruit on FB Marketplace, Craigslist, cold calling land owners. 

If you refinance the same amount but with a 7.75% loan, the debt service will be approximately $2,150/Mo.

We are aiming to fix and flip properties in the $250-350k ARV range. 

The new mortgage will be larger than your original mortgage since it includes the additional amount you have cashed out.

I would like to purchase two rental properties by the end of the year and two fix and flips.
