Recently closed on residential with rate of 3.5%. I know investment properties run higher rates but is 5.75% a bit too high or that’s typical? This will be my first purchase of actual investment property. Thanks!

This is kinda a poll - more than a post. I'm curious to know why more agents aren't willing to work (when they can under their broker) or why more brokers don't allow their agents to work "a la carte" - or a fee for ...
