I took a glazing tool (link below) when it was dry but before they grouted and scraped between the tiles and it would pop out fairly easily.

Carlos Liriano, be sure to use the @ symbol and then pick my name from the list that pops up.

These types of brokerages run into mom and pop type businesses, some subdivision development, and listing smaller land parcels.The other type of brokerages are commercial only and highly specialized.

It would be smart to invest in building one if you have the capital and know-how, the numbers make sense and you can locate and purchase a good piece of land.If any of these things are not in place, then I'd say it would not be smart to do so and you should continue looking (waiting) for something to pop up in the desired area or start looking at other areas.

It's the one that popped into mind.

There are a lot of Austin guys on BP, so I'm sure they'll pop in and welcome you as well.

If I find a buyer for these investor's properties and charge a modest fee (thinking $1000 a pop), could I get into trouble by not having a RE license?

I am a Realtor and it popped up on the MLS.

Many mom & pop landlords that own one or a few doors are probably overwhelmed with the new laws and are just tired of the headache.

The ones with a bunch of mom and pop tenants just are not worth the headache for the yield at least for me.
