Bird dogs at closings?

[Antonio Bodley]

My bird dog is willing to work with me, but says my bird dog fee is low compared to what he could make doing bird dog for someone else. My price range for the homes I want to buy and in the area I want to buy is not extremely high, so my bird dog fee I am willing to pay is $500. He said most bird dogs doing the same thing he does get paid minimum of $1000. I have no problem doing that depending on how much profit I can make from the deal minus all the expenses including the transactional funding fee I owe. This bird dog has had issues getting his money from other investors and wants to be at closing. Is it even allowed to bring a bird dog to the closing? I never heard of such a thing, but he really wants to make sure he gets his fee when I get paid from the closing. This is the first bird dog that has ever requested to do this.
