This should be interesting as better agents who have more business will naturally keep the firm at higher commissions, leaving less experienced agents with more low-priced business.Uninformed sellers will push back on including buyers commissions in the sales price resulting in less competition and lower prices on those homes.Uninformed buyers will self-sort out of the market unless they meet a great agent to explain their options.

My wife and I are planning on moving next year and we want to keep this house as a rental.

I have learned to calculate ARV, and reno costs roughly, although the latter I feel a bit uneasy about.

keep us posted on anything in particular you need help with as you get going!

Now that my client list is expanding and rentals aren't going as quick I need something to organize better and that goes out to more than 3 sites.I use Follow up boss but I'm trying to keep the rental side separate because I lose track of a lot when combined.Any low cost or free programs that meet my needs?

Silly to not keep property in the LA market?

Keep running the numbers and update as needed. 

With 14 properties, how much time would a bookkeeper spend on keeping my books up? 

Keep the seller informed of your lender's timeline.

I knew it was a long shot and so will pass on it and keep looking.
