I would have both parties involved, especially if it is a complicated nesting structure. 

In my case, I have residential rentals in one LLC, commercial properties in another, self storage in a third, and my real estate company operates in a fourth.

What I suspect is that this is a private party deal where the buyer is an inexperienced agent and just did the contract themselves on the side. 

Belize is very third world, I didn't mind that, but my sife probably would not go back. 

I do agree to pay them their listing fee if the contract expires and someone that they brought to the party while we had a contract returns and buys.

That part is easy .

Almost never the MLS.This sounds like a common story of out-of-state investors buying up class C with local third party management. 

Bug spray bombed during the hours we (wife, oldest grandson and myself) went to my mothers 81st birthday party today.

When the center was first purchased there should have been a 3rd party roof company inspect the roof that did not put it on so they could give honest opinion if installed properly.If contractor incorrectly installed the roof with the warranty then that could void the manufacturers warranty.

So for me in majority part I am just scratching an itch, and I am exercising a muscle.
