That is a very valuable lesson! 

He’s a valuable resource that I’m going to tap in to.

It might take a while, but reading through this thread might be valuable for you.

I’m making a few assumptions: 1) at least some buyers and sellers will accept much less agent handholding than commonly assumed, 2) the primary value that agents add is a) pricing guidance and b) advising clients on offers and counter-offers, and 3) there’s no truly compelling reason why North America has the highest average commissions in the rich world.

Some impressive features including extensive listing/syndication and state specific guidance provided such as max security deposit.RentRedi is a flat fee for the most part and has some cool features like pre-qualification and integration with QuickBooks.

Not to mention, these agents provide incredible valuable by providing me real time market intel on buyers tendencies, want's and needs which is important, especially when you are developing for-sale housing.

Me and my wife spoke to an immigration lawyer yesterday, but the answer was pretty much "hire me first"Any guidance/advice would be greatly appreciated!

Then again, I just don't have the knowledge or guidance on how

It may be best at this point to just seek the guidance of an attorney to see what your options are moving forward.
