Another thing you should think about is considering the transaction costs and holding costs. Transaction costs include all the costs of buying the property, as well as all the costs of selling it, and can easily top 10% of the sales price if you pay a full sales commission. Have any of you heard of the new reality show Bought & Sold on HGTV? You should check it out: http://web.hgtv.com/webhgtv/images/pac/59889/start_at_home.html?section=boughtsold,panel=videos. It’s a great show and you can really get a great idea on how the real estate industry works, from the inner workings, to the stories, the drama behind the sales, and the lengths brokers will go to just to get the deal. I work with the show, and this season is going to be great. The show airs Sundays at 10pm on HGTV. Thanks for your insight.
