Because the way a good turnkey company makes money isn't by tacking on a premium, it's by capitalizing on economies of scale in the rehab process, having the networks to get distressed properties at great prices, and having their own wholesaling operations that scour the market for those opportunities to cut down on commission costs.

I know it is customary for agents to refer buyers/sellers to other agents to purchase or sell a home and to receive a referral fee commission of anywhere between 20-30% of receiving agent’s commission for that referral but not exactly sure how it would/should be with a referral to a commercial business broker.Anyone know?

Let them earn their commission.

The settlement statement includes:- facilitation fee - $3,750- commission to 1st agent - $1,250- commission to 2nd agent - $3,675Am I meant to be charged both facilitation fee and commissions?

Saves me $10k on agent commission if I sell. 

Any agent familiar with short sales knows an agent can’t receive a commission if they are related to the buyer......SOP Arms Length Affidavit.

( our mother in law is the real estate agent and she will waive any commission on her end...what should we expect to net off a sale price of 270k in new jersey??)

It costs me about 8% on average to buy and sell a house (commissions, closing costs, title insurance, etc.). 

Not much left after sales commission and taxes.

I was able to negotiate the sales price way down since the seller doesn't have to pay the realtor commission.
