Hi Christophe- (former Tana resident myself, now living in Dar es Salaam)-I own a 1924 house (built by my great-grandfather) in the Tampa area, in a cute little town called Dunedin. 

Should I be expecting to pay fees or can I work with them with the understanding they will get a cut of the deals they help me close on.  

I even agreed to give him a cut of the assignment fee.

Then you don't do anything and get a cut of the commission if they eventually sell the place.

Ask them if you get a cut of the commission when it sells. 

In the next couple of months my time will be opening up greatly and I'll be able to do just about anything (driving for dollars, installing ceiling fans, replacing garage door openers, painting walls, whatever) in exchange for and education and, eventually, a cut of the deals. 

In the beginning of negotiations I am less concerned with what holds the building together, but acutely concerned with the problem and which proposal I am going to offer.Cash Flow or Equity makes a good transaction.

What RealQuest Pro is not, is a cute clickable choice tree where you end up a data set.

When I left Suncor, I took a pay cut, and a cut in vacation time, and a cut in medical benefits. 

Places like Du Bois, PA is not (as much as I thought it was a cute down when driving to Ann Arbor for law school).
