If you find a deal on your own, or from another broker, you still owe your "exclusive" broker a commission whether he lifts a finger in your deal or not.Some will claim they will give you the better deals first.

I am actually working with her now as well for a flip in Germantown.I think if your realtor is also a practicing landlord/investor as well (like she is) they are going to understand what you are looking for and have their finger on the pulse of the market.

The usual japes, hanging a noose from a tree, black glove with middle finger up, just general racist "first ammendment" stuff against my tenant just didn't get a response from the cops.So one Saturday, the racist neighbor kicked off, my tenant called the cops, used the line he'd been practicing for a few days.Sheriff office sent a supervisor, who saw this racist practicing his first ammendment rights, decided that it was harrassment with credible threat, the neighbor got hauled away, spent two months in jail, the tenant got a restraining order from the judge, and after some back and forth, the neighbor took a plea.

Fingers crossed

He's got his fingers in a bunch of apt pies and is very generous with his time to help you find a good path.But I'm not sure you really want to do this.  

My question is, who is that person in the Rochester, NY or Finger Lakes area?  

Is your uncle an experience fix and flipper?  

There is no way to do this on a low budget, typical of a jurisdiction where many fingers are dipping far too deeply in the construction budget.5.

The 1st never want to have to lift a finger.

In NY I am selling a property in the finger lakes area.
