Was curious on opinions if it would be worthwhile to become an agent to list my own properties.

What aspects of commercial real estate do you find make it (or not) a worthwhile investment?

That said, I think doing hard money loans for other flippers with successful histories and their own skin in the game is a worth while venture Rich, IMO.

Many bidders are realtors, and I guess they either think that they are going to be saving the 3% by self-listing the property for re-sale, or they think that just getting a commission at re-sale is worthwhile.

Since you need to make it worthwhile to have that property AND pay the additional $500 that you’re spending.

1% CoC doesn't seem worthwhile based on what I see below?

Of course they are experienced investors who buy at a steep discount to make the eviction worthwhile. 

I'm assuming there must be some relevant details missing and these are short posts of course, so that's understandable but sure leaves me wondering what your agent is thinking by even suggesting that would be a worthwhile offer to submit, both for what Russell pointed out, you could get sued for damages if the seller is led to believe anything more than what you said, that "hey I might/should have this HELOC $$ but it may just fall apart too" and if that's all the offer says, I can't see many sane sellers (and their agents) doing anything but trashing that offer ASAP.

I was wondering what people thought of the OHIO market along with the Columbus market and whether for starting out it was an area that would be worthwhile. 

It may be worthwhile,  an online shopping it is called remarketing.
