@Brooks Rembert I understand, what do you think is our best option in terms of procuring deals right now?

You need to look at that agreement because if the brokerages was (procuring cause- made the introduction or in others ways started the process) they can claim you owe them the money.I wouldn't be stepping over dollars to save pennies.Typically the brokerage might negotiate the LOI but the commercial attorneys do the full lease.

Have you already procured a loan and ready to close?

However the listing agent can for sure go back to your rebating agent and file for "Procuring cause".

While she did procure the opportunity, it's important to recognize the capital and risk you're now taking on.

I am currently helping her with that and procuring work while training in as an appraiser. 

It's very common for people to move states and try to procure housing before arrival. 

This rental property title will be under a newly established LLC  and I'm going through the loan procurement currently.

In this case, the lender will want to be sure that you can procure long-term financing, so things like your credit score, and the DSCR of the property become more important.Borrower (You):- What liquidity do you have available?

You'll need to procure leads off market, but the areas you are looking in have a lot of investors as well.
