The people trying to sell a 40k course likely told it's easy sign people up for it and you get a cut etc. and make big money.

My neighborhood is a cute one so homes move.

Do that for a year or two and then help that owner buy another and you take a cut in the deal maybe in exchange for management. 

When we list and rent the unit, my fee is 1/2 month and the rental side is 1/2 month, but paid by the renter in NJ.I would not sign anything that they get a cut if the tenant buys the place.

Two things I have seen, one form of Gator lending is indeed loaning money to wholesalers for EMD for a cut of the action.. either interest rate or profit whatever they can all negotiate.

It’s flexible and can help you fund deals quickly.Lease Options: Similar to “rent-to-own,” you control a property with minimal upfront costs and can potentially get a cut of the appreciation if you decide to buy it later.Lines of Credit: If you already own a property with equity, a HELOC or business line of credit can give you accessible funds for down payments or renovation costs.House Hacking: This might sound basic, but if you haven’t tried it, it can be a fast track to building up rental income and experience without a ton of cash down.

Purchased a cute little A frame home on Crescent Lake.

Or do they just facilitate the sale and take a cut?

I'd spend the money on quartz.You want to have a nice place so don't be afraid to spend where needed.I've heard horror stories of people putting in butcher block and people using it as a cutting board.

I'm just saying that alot of risk can be limited by placing yourself in situations where it's generally safer.Anyone can go certainly go postal anywhere, but it's extremely rare and usually in places that are densely crowded and acutally it seems like alot of mass shootings have been white men so great point.
