When he drowns in the flood, the man goes before God and asks Him why He didn't help.

I'm going to have my old man go by the courthouse (no real website) and do a title search.  

I said, hey man, go check out these threads on BP and that was the end of that! 

Annette Nasiadka if I were to give you just a slice of advice, it would be NOT to share what you have in this thread with other prospective brokers going forward.

But now its totally flip flopped at least from my little slice of the world.  

They bring a deal to a syndicator  buyer and then get a small equity slice of the deal along with the commission.So you make commissions but also through deal with syndicators get small equity slices that over time can start adding up.

I'd clean the land, slicing in 14 and resell to each owner to extend their backyard?

One can sue the other, there can be lawyers and all sorts of things, but any way you slice it you don't want to be in the middle.

I guarantee there's some legal experts that will slice it like a Ginsu!

In that case usually you gain experience but might get a very small slice like 10 percent on the deal.Another option is to get the land entitled and site plans approved and be in for a certain price and then flip the property or contract to a large developer to take over and do themselves.Whatever you do the longer you can negotiate the purchase and sale for the better generally.
