I wonder if by choosing to weed me out as a candidate for the property doesn't tgat put your interest above that of the owner you represent?

Is it possible to have the seller cover a 5-10% commission (built into the price) to you if your representing yourself and getting traditional financing?

@Steve B. its an investment property and I do have a buyer agent to represent me.

@Mat O'GradySince the property is owned by an LLC, and an LLC is technically it's own entity, you have to have passed the BAR in order to represent the entity.

This could work if you represent the buyer as well.

Is it possible to owner finance a property on the MLS being represented by an agent?

@Brian Pfaehler not everyone is comfortable representing themselves.

Our elected representative on the city council would have his aide attend, who brought us the city hall news affecting the neighborhood (building permits, zoning changes, programs in the works) and would report back on the concerns we had.
