Try looking at some of the larger offices in your area, especially ones that also facilitate real estate courses - reach out to the managing Broker and ask them to recommend a newer agent to you that would do it for a reduced listing fee - worth a try!

@Bahiyyah Parks Thanks so much for the great tip!

I would be scared to buy a home from him but do think he has some good tips on financing.

at around 8% For a long term loan you would land around the 6 to 7% interest rate at 75% of the LTV points would be around 1.5 to 2 Credit Score would need to be around 650 to get something done at these number If lower you would have to go HML points and rates would be higher of course 12 month loan with options

Fairly new to REI as well but over the course of 2 months have learned so much. 

There are of course people who do it every day but for your first property, it's probably not the best course of action.  

of course, i am going to get multiple coats of poly to finish it off. 

Any tips or suggestions?

I don't have real-estate experience, so I would need to learn thru program or on my own crash course on things like: easements, do I need LLC in each state I would buy in, learning to sell on terms (financing), how to close (can I do it myself), how good copy looks for mailings, etc.    

Of course one was an 11 unit that I'd owned for 7 years so it was a little easier.
