The event hall is located next to an apartment complex I own.

Getting the Price Right in a Market That’s EvolvingOne of the biggest hurdles when selling a house on your own is figuring out the right price.

I don't know where you are located, but I hear condo, I hear crazy high hoa' dues, I hear very limited power as an owner and hopefully its a well run hoa with ample reserves and owners that hopefully run the association to the owners interest and not their own!

However, as I'm sure you know, there are additional ways to fill that gap that traditional HMLs leave us with (15-20% cash equity to close) that don't require an 'up front fee', like equity partnerships, gap funders, etc.If you don't close (for whatever reason, even due to no fault of your own - ie perhaps the seller changes their mind), is that fee refundable?

I'm in Connecticut and do my own.

I wasn't too keen on spending $35K on a program that I can't even try out but to each its own. 

I am currently renting but want to own.

The numbers I used can be found relatively easily on your own.

Getting a real estate license and becoming the agent May be a way to increase your income but it is not a Business that starts up all on its own.

I like to see a market standing strong on it's own 2 leg's not propped up by out-state $ because eventually it has to stand on it's own.
