Licensed Agents Purchasing Investment Property

[John Bowler]

I am a licensed agent in the Phoenix AZ area. I am looking at acquiring some investment property for myself. They would be cash deals, no agency and no commissions on either side. I know I am required to disclose to the seller that I am a licensed agent, but am I legally able to complete the transaction as a private individual without going through my brokerage? ie. if use my own letter of intent, purchase contract etc. and have my title company manage escrow for me?

Rules vary state to state and brokerage to brokerage. I can buy, sell, and lease without involving my brokerage. If I represent others all fees must pass through them.
