They are a great person & I wish them the best of luck for future work.However, I'm somehow unable to justify the $25k+ I am expected to pay to them as commission on each $1M invested.If I am researching the market myself, creating comps myself, reviewing each disclosure myself, working with the mortgage lender myself, finding problems in the homes myself -  what is the value add that the agent is bringing to the table that I can't execute myself?

Best wishes
