Bill Nickerson, who wrote the first book ever targeting small real estate investors and small deals (How I Made $5 million in Real Estate in my Spare Time) was a guy that was the u;to age straight shooter, told you the good, bad, and ugly - NO PUFF.  

This has created a "shared driveway" with the neighbor making an ugly curb appeal, not to mention cutting their lot in half.

One way to make money is taking a cut of the Gurus sales that come to town.

I don't want to make this too long, so i'll get straight to the point.

I thought Morris said he cut ties..

See the fact that mortgage rates are up about 1% from Oct when the fed started to cut the fed funds overnight rate as evidence. 

I have not looked into this but, if process ramps up, could cut construction costs, time to market and massively increase supply, too. 

For the most part, most lenders are going to be relatively close in cost assuming we are talking about a straight forward loan product, we all borrower from the same pool of money to make these loans. 

You just need confirmation from your broker the amount you would receive from the commission (if they take a cut), if you're your own broker you can authorize that yourself. 

Damn straight!
