Hello BP Community,Hoping one of the tax experts out there can provide me some clarity. 

Price should be determined by the value they provide you...not how long it took them.

I am willing to provide my time, my knowledge, and any leg-work. 

I work with a great team that takes care of most of the work for me including sourcing deals, managing rehan (if necessary) and providing property management.

For instance, most track builders build in a crap-ton of fluff into the price of the house so they can provide a "credit" (like $15K or more) toward closing costs if and only if you use their lender...where they can charge whatever they want.

I can provide some recommendations if you want to connect. 

I never recommend selling a house unless you are selling it to invest the money in something that provides a greater return, or you are experiencing financial difficulty and can't get out of it through other means (e.g. a part-time job).Have you considered living in the 5bed house and renting out a couple of the spare rooms?

As a larger provider we employ both dynamic pricing software as well as a revenue manager that checks our prices daily.3.

The USDA offers a loan program called the Multifamily Housing Direct Loan Program, which provides funding for the development of affordable rental housing in rural areas.
