How Do You Compensate Your Acquisitions Manager / House Buyer?

[Chris Bounds]

With more leads coming in I am considering taking on an assistant.  My first thought is to hire a buyer to train, assist with marketing, visit properties, and make offers. 

If you have buyers on your team, how do you compensate them?  Commission only?  Base + commission?  Thanks for sharing!

 Sounds like your business is going well & you're starting to systemize it.  We don't have "buyers".  We do have independent property finders,  photographers & virtual assistants.  Property finders get paid when deals close.  Photographers get paid per job.  Virtual assistants get paid per hour.
