If you can't find someone willing to do that maybe you can bring on a business partner who will get a cut of the cash flow or equity in exchange for providing the rest of your startup costs.

So you want a cut up front and every month after.  

If a cash buyer came to me and was going to give me at least some of my return right away, rather having to wait for a retail buyer, it might be worth it to take a cut in profit!

If so, would my agent be entitled to commission from the wholesaler, or would the transaction be able to legally occur without the agent's involvement / the agent getting a cut?

Due to my personal focus, I am acutely aware of what is going on in the multifamily market in Phoenix, specifically in the C class units.

For my process, once I receive any communication of interest, I always send them a cut and paste of my requirements (I also have them in the ad, but many people selectively ignore.)

BUT - they are going to try and make their money two ways - one, charging you up front for the opportunity (the deal I saw from my buyer was like a $4,000 fee) and then I’m sure they probably get a cut of the back end if the deal actually makes.  

There isn't even a cut out on the granite for the cooktop.  

Just a tree with simple ornaments, something for the centerpiece of the table, a cute wreath on the door, and holiday print oven mitts and kitchen towels.

I would second Suzanne's reply and add that if your property manager is being really stubborn about it maybe you can work something out with them and they get to take a cut like they normally do out of the gross rent (something like 8-10%).
