Finding deals for you
Hi my dear BP community,
Is there such a thing or market for finding deals for other real estate investors for a commission without working for a company/bureau/agency ect. But more with a personal approach and relation.
Would love to know more about this or an equivalents of this.

@Steve Morris Dear steve,
I'm not sure how to interpret your message, but I am looking for somebody who simply does not have time to look for and analyze deals and would not mind paying a finders fee for someone that does the work for them.
How I would find these deals? below I'll list you 27 ways :)
On a more serious note, I myself am financially ready to invest but feel like I need more education. therefore I am super eager to analyze deals for others to gain experience, and if one of those deals will end up being an actual investment there could be a commission for the finder and it would be a double win.
Ways to find deals :)
