@Derek ScottI have relationships with some hedge funds that I have bought notes from now for past 2 yearsI did a webinar on where you can find sources with some of the lower hanging fruitFeel free to send me a PM and I can share where it is so I am not considered self promoting

They promoted it as “Find, Fix, Fund and Flip Rehabs” I thought there would be more education presentations.

Hey @Redgy Saint-Germain , The very first article of the Realtor Code of Ethics states that agents are to a "pledge themselves to protect and promote the interest of their client" (you).

Nothing personal, but I felt the post IS relevant because the OP is promoting "wholesaling" on the forum.

Certainly, there is some basis for doing so because many states have not even addressed the issue at all, thus allowing many to go unchallenged in their operations - so far.I simply wanted to present information to people because I believe - which I was clear about - that RTO and LTO are a very shaky business model that could have long-term consequences for those so engaged, as a counterpoint to all of those gurus who post here espousing those methods to help promote their get rich quick schemes. 

And it’s not that I’m promoting quitting your job… but maybe if you are making $X/ year, you look for one that makes $X + $10,000/year to push you closer to getting into real estate?

@Jayakrishna BommasamudramThan Merrill is a marketing pimp, he was promoting competing software packages at the same time a few years ago.

I would position increasing the commission as a way to attract buyers agents and a way to fund your efforts to more aggressively promote the property.Asking for more money on smaller deals is reasonable.

If the property is on the border of Logan Square you usually cannot use a recently sold comparable in Hermosa.Now you can use the NOI to promote how good the property is from a cash flow perspective but appraisers generally won't use that number to determine the value.

I've seen this many times, last month we had someone from fort still in OK to the JBLM Lewis Mcchord and that resulted in a higher BAH (more expensive market) but also because of promotion in Rank from lieutenant to captain.Just make sure you figure out the approximate increase in pay and if it will be non taxable because you can also gross up your non taxable portions of your pay 125% or 1.25X as well (usually its just the BAS/BAH but not your base pay).This will allow you to figure out your borrowing power ahead of time.
