Multiply the out of pocket by the ten deals he's going to do the first month he needs about $210k to get started so I suspect he's not planning to bring the mortgage current, but I might be wrong.In my claims work I've known many agents who closed outside the box transactions, it's not because all the others weren't smart enough close them, it's because the ones who didn't, didn't want to run the risk of losing their license or winding up in prison.Some of the posts I read make it sound like searching and examining title and closing transactions is a walk in the park taking no skill, deserving little compensation and less respect. 

Ended up keeping them, thinking they deserved a shot to prove themselves, and if they messed up, I'd get rid of them.

I am sure I deserve every harsh name you can imagine for me and then some.But I did laugh a bit (and please find room in your heart to forgive me for it) when I thought about the incongruity of a process server advising me to let someone else get their hands dirty.

I think BP birthed and maintains a little sub-culture about the site and it's folks and for all of that, everyone deserves a pat on the back.

A good realtor deserves their commission and I always negotiate a commission before I bring the deal, so that's your Realtor's fault. 

But a wholesaler who tries to put one over on people deserves it if they figure out what he is doing and cut him out of the deal.Especially since if realtors are just showing up with prospective buyers, it is not like you are marketing to any sort of exclusive and valuable cash buyers list.

If a coach accepts any random idiot into his program, he deserves to lose money for the time he wasted on that idiot.So, I guess the question becomes -- does LU screen students upfront and weed out the ones unlikely to succeed? 

But it just cracked me up that someone thought Josh deserved compensation for a deal they said I helped make happen.

That's a shame as they deserve the attention, not you. 

There are so many deserving charities to choose from.
