One thing about condos is the HOA fees.

Another oversight I caught on my own is that I included the management fee, but for a house hack I will almost definitely be managing it myself.

It can reduce borrowing costs like the origination fee, points and pre-paids. 

Question for the experts: is there any reason to not accept prepaid utilities and monthly pet fee?

Letting a management company take over My question is how do you analyze a property in order to allocate for management fees.

I decided to get my license and according to the math I will break even on the board of realtors fees if I do one deal per year.

I had an agent friend reach out to me about a pocket listing he has and wanted to know if I have an interested Investor, he is offering a finders fee.

If a juicy deal falls into your lap because you're out there networking and spreading the word about what you do, take it or assign it for a fee.  

We value each deal independently and agree on a fee structure (usually 1-5 points and 10-15% interest as a broad range).For context one of my company's business lines is first lien notes (hard money). 

Online payments with credit card require an additional transaction fee.
