I was about to sign a contract for my first ever offer on a Florida rental when I read the last line of the offer contract saying "Buyer to pay ____ (brokerage name)___ $345 fee at Close"When asked, agent said it was for storage/document fees, and very standard across all firms.

Partners capital is currently in mutual funds with a Financial Advisor Firm. 

Also, would be looking to connect with and talk to some local property management firms that serve the Hartford area.Thanks!

You'll probably get a pretty good feel just based on the tone of those conversations what kind of firm you're dealing with.

Thank you sharing @Amanda McAvenaWhat are your thoughts on the following when it comes to the Brooklyn market: People leaving the city to seek housing in less dense, warmer clients due to the current pandemic with firms moving more to remote workJust cause eviction bill in New YorkI personally fear that these factors may effect the current real estate market in Brooklyn.

Hello BP Community,Currently I am college student who has been working with a local brokerage firm some time now and have gotten to learn a lot about real estate through them and other internships I have had.

I just received an invoice from OConnor & Assoc (local property tax attorney firm), & I am little cross.

From there I went to go work for a client as an originator and then moved over to my current originations role at another firm in 2015, where I have happily been since. 

If you are also looking for a remodeling/design firm checkout www.locidb.com "Studio Loci" as they will be helping me with this first flip since they have 30 years of experience. 

I am following the same strategy with 50 units or under in the South East to avoid competing with large investment firms and to find the more "mom and pop" operated properties to add value, refi to return the majority of investor capital, and then hold.
