No. Just get someone's permission to help them market their property. Then post real properties on CL to build your buyers list. It has the same effect, and you could actually make some money and be taken seriously.

There is a local guy here who was trained by Dr. Matthew James, Dr. Richard Bandler, and John La Vallewent. I paid him to come to my office several times and spend the day in private coaching sessions. He gave me a few books, but they weren't specifically about NLP. One was The Phone Book. Look it up on Amazon. It is a good story about using the phone for business.

Richard Bandler was awesome according to Harlan.

Jarci, you can cross reference those property addresses with the county property appraisers website. I would mail only to the ones that have different mailing address from property address. Those are the non owner occupied cash purchases.

Check Orlando and Tampa. Close to the OIA and TPA, there are some good neighborhoods with sick deals every day.

Interesting post Aaron. I studied a little on NLP, but need to put more time into it. Do you have any specific books to recommend? Or did you just pony up the big bucks for Harlan Kilstein or whatever his name is?

Put it under and market is the only way to know.

You could also get her to sell on terms and offer owner financing to an end buyer. Sounds like if you did that you would have the cheapest house in that hood.

I could see how Agreeing in writing to market someone else's property in writing could be considered unlicensed brokering.

However if you simply get a p&s signed between you and the seller you shouldn't get in trouble for marketing. They can get ticked off but shouldn't get you in legal trouble.

I think what this attorney is saying is that you should not add language in the contract thays indicates you will be marketing the house for sale. So just keep it out of the contract and do it anyway. Since we can all agree you don't need permissions to do so. Adding it to your contract could make it seem like you approached the seller like a broker would.

Bruce, that may be the case in DC. But it is certainly not the case here in FL.

Dry double closings were probably invented here though.
