Does anyone have any knowledge on whether I can represent myself in a transaction with a builder on the purchase of a new construction home for myself as an actively licensed broker in WA Seattle area and collect or save on the commission myself?  

Why cant I just pull the trigger, slap a tenant in there, and collect $$$ per month?

How many collective years of experience does their leadership team have? 

For others like my clients I collect the data, find the deals, do the analysis, and provide references to get the property stabilized.

I have not spoken to other hosts yet, but have been trying to collect some LTR/STR property management contacts to see if they have any insight.

I would recommend buying your first home, either single family or a duplex and house hacking so you can collect rental income and have renters help you pay down your mortgage. 

Rental income is collected by parent A and parent B.

If you pay $25,000 to replace the roof, do you start collecting 66% of the cash flow because you have now invested 66% of the money into the property?

If I do go the property management route - can i get a limited service option (say in which I find the tenant, collect rent, handle most maitnenance issues) and they primarily are liasoning with my vendors during US business hours and handle any urgent maintenance issues?

i want to keep the group small. not like industry scale crowdfunding.if I can find a property which has okay cashflow (which is hard anyways). and can collect around 10/20 people who wants to invest some cash each.I build a company to own the property and give each person a share. and give yearly dividend to each, until sold.
