It's just another commission-only direct sales position.Of course, if that's your thing, I can point you to something RE-related which is VASTLY more lucrative.

I am ok with offering smaller commission fees if that's the answer.

Also, what would be the typical commission for their services?

Every realtor I've spoken to (granted, they are fishing for commission) says that it will be a very loooooong time before this place will ever recover it's 2006 value and it's still on the downslide. 

Even with taxes, insurance, interest on first-position loan, half a million in agent commissions, etc., you can still realize a profit of $3 million, which means $1.5m for the investors.

We felt our backs were against the wall and we finally signed after our realtor took $2000 off their commission.

Go to a few apartment locating offices and ask them to fill the property for a commission (normally 50% of one month's rent).

Is it customary for a realtor within your same Brokerage to pursue a potential listing you have been discussing and offer them a lower contracted commission to acquire the listing?

I've been watching real estate videos going to seminars and reading books but now it's time to get started and I'm completely stuck I want to start wholesaling then eventually rehabbing but do not know where to start and how to break down a deal I'm more of a hands on learner I would be willing to offer a 50/50 split on commission on my first deal for someone to just walk me through it never have to meet up just phone calls or inbox messages I understand time is money and we can negotiate that 50/50 I'm more about the knowledge then money at this point.

Ok- so say you can get $700 or so after commissions and sales expenses.
