I will often go back and forth, do quarterly Profit & Loss reviews, and reviews during tax time to let the clients know how the filing on their returns will affect their financial plans and qualification going forward.

I usually advice clients with rental properties to put the assets in a Multi-member LLC.

What do other seasoned agents do out there to better benefit their investor clients?

Hi David;If you are asking your agent to put your rental on the MLS and give you the various forms I know I wouldn't charge my clients anything.

It can work many differ ways, The title company may have a notary in the state where your client lives that can go to their house and sign all the documents, or the title company can mail them the packet and they sign all docs, have it notarized and Fed Ex it back.

All too often I have clients say but I read such and such here, and I have to correct them and explain what it pertains to exactly.And finally NO you're golden retriever is not your dependent for tax purposes.

Thank you all for your responses:I just recently obtain my license, and I'm just starting to build my database for potential clients, but no I do not want to just simply be an agent.

I'd like to extend the cost of the water to the lot renters by submetering each unit and sending them a bill (or having a third party do it) I was wondering, who has done this, how much I'm looking at spending, are permits needed, where can I go about getting the best deal on hardware (should I use a wireless meter which gathers data 4 times a day that I can review from home?)

My clients like to see 1.15% of purchase price for rents.

What I have discovered is that my clients have thousand of REOs nationally and through my relationships at the Asset Manager level I have access or the ability to look at them all.
