So essentially the benefit to or the reason why someone would want to become a broker is to open up a real estate agency and hire real estate agents to work for them?

One other really key item would be for them to be held dual signatory - no movement of funds is allowed without the signatures of both you and the QI.  

I think the credit reporting agencies are also in this data mining, over 30, 60, 90 day lates, and yes, state specific as well. 

Is it possible to do dual (simultaneous) closing, whereby I pay the first note and deed the property over to the buyer at the same time?

In Michigan, the section 8 vouchers are administered locally through a housing commission or other agency.  

Can the service be contracted out from a temporary agency?

They did not have type of insurance to cover non owner occupied property.So I looked into another insurance agency to do a landlord policy.  

I do this for any vendor I use each year, as I carry workmens comp on my properties for myself and workers I know aren't covered themselves. but if I can prove my vendors have insurance when I'm audited, so my insurance agency compute rates in my favor, because vendors had their own coverageAs far as lien waivers, it's good practice to have anyone that worked on the house sign they have been paid and a lien waiver is used for that. 

I work for a great agency, Fathom Realty, they have a great mentoring program and were names the fastest growing companies for the third year in a row!
