You'll get much better service than dual agency and it won't cost you anything...

First off, they are misusing the term "pocked listing" as to real estate terms, it's buzz, no big deal, but know a pocket listing is generally illegal by RE Commission regs, where an agent simply holds the listing contract and doesn't actively work it until they come across a potential buyer, they keep the listing in their pocket.I do not advise newbies to use a listing agent to buy, in a dual agency (which was misguided in that video) the listing agent represents the seller not the buyer.

When they are in a 'dual agency' situation (i.e. they are formally representing both the Buyer and the Seller), their obligation is to mostly provide information and not opinion / recommendation.

Dual income middle class families can afford quite nice rentals.  

@Tonya Clark did you ever find a investor friendly title company or closing attorney you would recommend for dual close and/or assignments?

I have pretty significant student loan debt, just finished a dual degree program with a law degree and an MBA, just bought my first house (we didn't house hack my wife didn't want to now kind of regrets it), and just bought  a car.

If its an assigned/dual agency matter, the broker probably has a larger interest in asking the seller update the SRPD.

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.  

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?

I started as a dual career agent.
