If someone is charging you 25%, that is ludicrous.Keep in mind that in many states, it is against the law to pay someone a fee to manage a property if they are unlicensed.

And if you believe anyone is waiting on BBB to do something about your illegal unlicensed business practices, guess again. 

Needless to say, I've seen the other world that most retail agents just haven't been exposed to.I'm positioning myself as 'the investor's agent' here in Atlanta, and would love some help on exactly what unlicensed investors are wanting out of their agents.

In Ohio I have heard several times about people (wholesalers) were fined for "unlicensed activity". 

Also, I believe she is running an unlicensed in-home daycare in my unit.  

Since a MLO and state license are not required in the states that allow unlicensed lease with option to purchase transactions, this may be an alternative at the present time for smaller operators who are doing limited numbers of these types of loans.If you are looking at doing less than five loans per year, there is another system that involves a formal joint venture arrangement that many Lonnie Dealers are using successfully and legally that should be explored.  

BEFORE you deal with any unlicensed broker consider these ideas:1.

@Whitney Aviles[Removed by Moderators]As for the first part of your question, you might think that you will save some good money going with an unlicensed guy, but that almost always comes back to bite you.

I'm thinking about obtaining my Real Estate License just for Comparables since I'm not having any luck as an unlicensed assistant.Any tips or tricks would be appreciated.

A listing agent can not just give an unlicensed third party access to a property.
