The commissions for rentals are not very high enough for busy agents, so they could refer prospective tenants for you to qualify and show properties to.

The seller is willing to raise or lower the price as needed to help me get whatever I need out of the deal financially (higher price, higher commission, lower price, lower commission, higher price, higher seller assist, etc...)

If your a realtor you can get the entire commission.

You need to get an agreement signed by seller showing you are merely assisting in marketing the home and are charging a commission or some other contract protecting your interests.

I like to save the buyer's or seller's side of my commissions on flips.

I don't mind paying commission, however, 10% is the going rate from what I have heard and honestly, I feel it is a bit much, when I have done alot of marketing myself along with my wife.

Hey all - A friend of BiggerPockets, Greg Swann of Bloodhound Realty, recently put together a free e-book on divorcing real estate commissions that I thought you might be interested in.According to Greg, As long as consumers know nothing about this, the fleecing will go on.Here's an excerpt:Question #1: “Potential buyers for our home ($800K - California) have a realtor but he did not find our home for them.

I was looking on Google for a decent commission advance company that would loan over $10k 30 days out.

Sometimes two to three points above prime.Remember that seasoning really affects the person trying to buy the house from you when their loan officer has been shopping their loan application to the big banks that also offer commission incentives on certain programs that loan officers can make more money on.When the buyer finds out that Wells Fargo won't fund the loan because the house has only been seasoned four months...

Part of these are return of the initial investment (principle) and part are the actual returns (interest, so to speak.)One of them is an agent, and so collects part of the commission on both the purchase and the eventual sale.The plan is to operate this property for five years, then consider alternatives.
