If you wait until tax time, your family will disown you :) The key thing is to ensure you are tracking everything.One you are recording everything, then find yourself an accountant who can advise you on how to tweak/alter your recording to facilitate reporting, forecasting/budgeting, taxes, etc.

A real estate sales license does not enable that licensee in CA to create or facilitate loan docs.Lastly, what if the buyer fails to perform, causes damage to the home, and you end up going over a year without monthly payments (which in CA can easily take place, ask me how I know!).

My question is with off-market leads that fit my criteria should I use my realtor to facilitate the process for the first few deals?

If he were reasonable--and, again, he is not--he would have agreed to submit my offer of a total commission of 4% (asking Greedy there to serve as facilitator), which he could keep all to his selfish little self. 

Points/origination fee is paid at closing and ONLY to the title company Escrow company or closing attorney who ever is facilitating the close  NEVER EVER directly to the broker or lender. those are all scams full stop.

Thanks again @David Plaunt for coordinating last time and doing a great job facilitating introductions and being inclusive. 

I am facilitating all communication between the court and my rental management company to sort out the delays.

I will most likely get a RE attorney to help facilitate. 

I also facilitated these deals because I worked out terms to get it sold.. the other brokers would just take orders from the clients I would sit down with them and explain the benefits of owner finance.. and that I could get them more money for the property than listing with another broker who only offers the property for cash..

I then asked him if it was true that their company acts as facilitators for bird dogs.
