BOE = Building basis less land value * 20-30% * applicable rate (now 60%)

My company does the following:• Free and simple MLO Licensing (22 hours online or in person and you choose your schedule)• Mortgage team to handle the backend (meaning, no structuring, underwriting or processing loans) • Competitive mortgage rates backed a company with 20+ years in the business• Downline revenue stream on the lending side (similar to EXP model.)• They do not have to change brokeragesIn my mind, there aren't many cons to this.

that the BP forum may have for me moving forward with my basement conversion project would be great for me and anyone else with the same question here on the forum. 

Hi,I keep looking at current interest rates and property sales.

I intend to invest in a 3 BHK single family rental, around 2000-2500 sq ft and good school district in the Houston suburbs of Cypress, Katy and Sugar Land.Looking to connect with investor friendly agents with knowledge about the region to get an understanding  and initiate conversation.

Also, if I compare different lenders, if we just compare rate, for the same rate, less point is better, right?

And are you seeing major weather events impacting occupancy rates? 

. :)Also, this is not a "conversion" - you only need to move the funds to a custodian who allows using their funds as self-directed.

What are the concessions currently being offered by builders and the possibilities for rate buydowns in the current market?

I am looking to create a system which will allow me to analyze and choose markets more efficiently.I want to have a pool of resources/websites that I follow step by step so for example, 1: Check the housing prices, 2: Check the population, 3: Unemployment rate, etc... and then I will pull this data from the websites that provide it and keep going down the checklist.
