Weren't these fees all disclosed to you upfront? 

@Tanya Rooney  Some Hard Money Lenders require you to put at least 25% down and the ones that do 100% will have a lot of fees involved and points.

It may sound nice to pay a 5% management fee but the extra fees can add up to be more than the other company that charges 10% with no add-on fees.

Thanks @Joshua Birk, I decided not to make an offer because there are a few extra fees that hurt the cash flow and I couldn't come up with a good idea on the attic!

Make sure you are using good % for your capital expenses, monthly maintenance, vacancy estimate, and property management fee on top of your taxes and insurance.

They pay you for the house, the wholesale fee or whatever mark up that would be done for providing the service.

For this option to pay off, it seems that I would want to minimize transaction fees, and find a place that will have low vacancy rates on the rental market and is likely to appreciate quickly.

however as I stated they are not keen on pass through escrows  so just put your money in first then close and resell.. that's how the locals do it. or get an assignement fee out of escrow.

If you did not and were charged late fees they must be paid before you get a full security deposit back.4. 

Look at the filing fees and if you have a day job time off and decide if you will make more then it will cost.
