You'd rather get a whole new depreciating asset that resets at the 26 year term. 

The entire agent model would perish because most of the time off-market listings are new leads that need to be prepared before hitting the market.

This reminds me of the story of a wall-street banker convincing a fisherman who already has time for his friends / family to instead scale his fisherman business(get employees, integrate, then sell the business) all of which will lead him to be able to spend time with his friends and family.It already sounds like you have a great life - spending time wth family and in great health.Having additional money doesn't sounds like it would improve your life that much.

You can learn to do this independently or get a rockstar REALTOR to lead the way.

So if you search for specific terms like “real estate for sale” or something similar, you should discover a few solid leads that you never would have found otherwise.All in all, using the search feature is a great way to discover other connections to valuable real estate as well.

Hi BP, would like to hear feedback from all you folks in or near the Kansas City area,Currently I'm looking for a software to help me generate leads, but there's so many of them to choose from, I don't know which is best suited for my area.

I market on Craiglist, Zillow, FB and Apts.com and get great leads from each in my market.

These are not great investments and while the experience is not typical for Memphis, nothing I've read or seen should lead you to believe your experience will improve.
