I've got a service business, and on the side I sell a paid coaching track. Twelve-month program, $6,000 up front or $650 a month, with a 14-day full refund window written into the…
We're four originators and a processor. Purchase volume is holding but refi is basically gone, and two of the four are living off a pipeline that's thinner than it was. I've been…
I'm getting ready to list two parcels and the agent's marketing person sent over a menu. There's a one-time line called brand kit at $1,200 and then per-listing packages under it.…
I'm sitting for my licensing and trying to build a real startup number instead of a guess. So far I have the state title insurance producer license exam and fee, an underwriter ap…
One shop wants $2,000 a month flat and says ad spend is separate, I pay Google directly. The other wants 15% of ad spend with a $5,000 monthly minimum spend, and their proposal sa…
Quote in front of me on a $480k cash-out refi of a rental held in an LLC. Broker fee 2 points, plus a $1,495 processing fee, and the lender's term sheet separately shows 1.5 origi…
A deck I was sent described this as asset light, start for under $1,000, which I don't believe. I read paper and notes normally, so I always look first for where the cash gap sits…
I run leasing and maintenance coordination for a small portfolio and an owner asked me to "set up the CRM" so tenant inquiries stop falling through. When I asked what he had, he s…
I manage 140 doors and I've been pricing out an annual condition walk on every unit, roughly $180 a visit with photos and a punch list. Two things are stopping me. First, if I hir…
We run a small service crew and I've been pricing out adding staging as a second line, mostly for two flippers we already do work for. Called our broker to ask what would change o…
I run two vendors against the same two counties, pre-foreclosure plus high-equity absentee. Vendor A bills $1.10 per contracted contact, vendor B $0.95. I finally pulled both supp…
Two numbers in this room don't fit together for me. A single family appraisal is $300 to $600, and AVMs or property condition reports already sit on something like 35 to 45 percen…
Got a package on a four-plex from an agent I've been talking to about representation. The listing sheet shows $3,400 a month gross. The leases she forwarded add up to $3,050, and…
I've been talking to a coach who runs a small group program, $4,000 for six months. On the call he offered me a second option instead: pay nothing up front, and he takes 20% of th…
The thing my audience asks for most, by a wide margin, is help raising capital, and I'm putting a service business together around it. Not raising it for me, teaching them to rais…
My closing disclosure shows a lender's title policy at around $600 and an owner's policy at around $1,100, and my agent said the seller customarily pays for the owner's policy whe…
He buys small multifamily and said if I bring him an address he ends up closing, he pays $500 per door. He wouldn't put it in writing, said that's just how it works and everyone i…
1,380 sf rehab, fixed price contract at $92,400, three draws at 30/40/30 with 10 percent retainage held to punch list. We're through demo and rough framing repairs. The GC's lumbe…

An owner forwarded me a screenshot of a caption on one of our rental listings: "ideal for a young professional couple, walk to the brewery." She drafted it in an AI tool and it we…
