You could split deals, but first step is to lear the are and the market.Read all you can find about real estate, yes, the dry stuff, like text books on the subject, it won't take long.Find out what the rules of the road are, what laws you need to abide by.You might consider going to a real estate class for agents.

There you can search for agents by location.

Depending on what you are doing, it can definitely be worth it.Me and my partners are starting a residential brokerage in the next two months (when our office is finished), and one of our requirements for agents is that they have to post something at least once a week.It does a few things, I think.
