If it appeared to be an amortizing loan I'd even run an amortization table to attempt to ballpark the principal.But not anymore.

Hey Kenos,I have my real estate license (in referral, I don't actively sell) and there are laws we have to follow in Michigan.We earn a percentage (usually 6%) that is divided among listing and selling real estate offices and then split again between real estate agents and their brokers, on the Sale of the property.In other words, real estate agents and brokers earn their commission at the closing table of the property sale.It is unlawful (here in Michigan for sure) to accept any sort of addition money or gifts, as a licensed agent or broker, other than the earned commission at the closing table.Example:  When I was actively selling as an agent, a Title Company representative would stop by our office and bring donuts or a party tray of snacks.  

However, if you ask for "reasonable accommodation" under federal law, you will turn the tables, and now the conversation is "how can the city accommodate me? 

My take is this, if it's your deal coming to the table, you take 75% of the total fee and pay him 25% for using his buyer and that's as high as I would go.

A drink or two later the egos came out and before I knew it a $100 bet was on the table that I couldn't build a house and move in within 18 months.
