If they close and sign up with us then we do a site walk etc and begin onboarding.I am also a broker who assists in finding the property, doing walkthroughs etc and I get paid a commission at closing from seller.Long story short I would expect them to give you an analysis of properties you are interested in for free based on the hopes of future business, if you want them to go above and beyond and attend showings etc then ask them if they are interested and offer them compensation for their time :)
