Here's how it went down:I found a burn-out that was being advertised for $15k.

If someone's foolish enough to let you tie up their property with $10 at risk, have at it.One way to get more "takers" is to do an advertising agreement with the original seller, by which you get paid to market the property upon performance (i.e., finding a buyer).

As a general rule, I and many other REO agents don't advertise our listings as REO, bank owned, foreclosure or anything else that could potentially devalue our client's property.

Point(tm) for every exclamation point in the advertisement.

I stumbled across a company called Commercial Direct that advertises LTV of up to 97% for commercial property.

There are lots of people on the "speaking tour" advertising LLC or Trust creation.

We've been advertising on craigslist, hot pads and google and have gotten a few calls a week.

Thank youWeb advertising is mostly dead.

If you jack up the price to accommodate a commission and it sells, then it was likely priced too low before that and you just jacked it up to market price or even still lower than market price.You are also correct in that having a property properly listed and advertised through an agent can make the difference between it selling and not selling.
