The county I work for can process registrations rather quickly, however there could be a hang up that may take a few days to resolve. 2) this is a continuation of one, some counties will not process registrations after a certain date, example Travis County (Austin, Tx) will not accept registrations any later than 10 days before the sale.

Does anyone have suggestions of a broker that allowed them to hang their license for a nominal fee or a barter of services in this area? 

They are a better risk as they can't file during the term of your lease or after so they can't hang you!

@Chelcie Rivers From my research into this topic, the easiest way would be for you to get your RE license and hang your license at a brokerage.  

I told him it's not personal, it's just business, and then begged him to let me off the phone because hanging up on people is rude.

So sure, if I were to hang with you on your work day and go to the car to get a pencil, sure take a 100% of the profit. 

You have a great rate so hang on to that.
