I would try to get all the players to the table and work out a reasonable resolution.

I just got off the phone with my Realtor on this home, and it was put under contract because I initially thought I could not make it work out.

You can still offer a commission to a buyer agent and if you work out a deal with your broker, they will likely minimize the commission they will take. 

I am very confident that the numbers will work out to my benefit.

I have a client's wife who is trying to sell her house in North East Philly. she had it listed with a local Agent but that did not work out and now she is looking for options. she did pull the listing.

The reason funds come into a market and pay retail, is there are not enough "deals" and they are betting that retail or slightly over will work out over time because of appreciation.

As all three of us here have said, there are so many variables, that if you feel you do want to give it a shot, realize we are doing 100% of the work to finding them, peeling back the onion, getting them transferred to the new servicer, checking for missing assignments & such, starting and completing a workout process, selling the note or property, and ultimately making a profit.

I'm not required to do everything a PM would be doing in the real world, I'm getting to learn on the job, I can use the land lord as a mentor on the process, and I'll have time to work out my systems in the next couple months.

I'm trying to work out numbers for a duplex I have in mind.

overall, 600 isn't horrible because the work is labor intensive, not very DIY. screwing up is definitely a problem due to the potential stresses put on valves by the weight of the radiator, threading it wrong, pipes needing to be manipulated into place for the new valve. sometimes an old valve can get rusted in place, which another ordeal...valve replacement can be a massive ordeal.
