How to become a discount agent?

[Jeremy Segermeister]

Hi everyone,

I posted a similar thread in the real estate professional group but think I would get a better response here.

I’m first getting started and looking to make my first investment in the near future. I’m doing everything I can to learn about the right way of doing it. I figure that getting my real estate license couldn’t hurt and will help me become more educated.

I was wondering has anyone here become or worked with a discount agent? My area is very expensive and if I could offer a rebate to potential buyers whom are willing to do most of the work on their own, it is a win-win. I also negotiate professionally so I could add value there. Furthermore, a few people in my network only purchase new construction where the sales price is the same regardless if they bring an agent or not.

Would love to hear everyone’s thoughts. Are there any reputable “discount brokers” that I can look into online?

Well, first look at your state guidelines. Here in Colorado even if you consider yourself a discount broker you still need to be full service for your clients.
