Sara: Hard to predict peoples motives but don't forget agent doesn't get commission until sale closes, so there is some incentive to move things along.

The realtors are experienced flippers themselves, but using this community to gain more experience and knowledge on my part is always good too.So, I have a few questions / would like some confirmation on what I believe would be typical.1) I assume it is typical to pay my realtor the full commission on the total $100k at closing.2) Do you typically send an invoice/statement to the buyers monthly?

. - can I make offer that leaves out buyer's agent commission?

Agents are programmed a single way and that is why wholesale when you could make a 6% commission.

If someone want's to put in effort and help you then help them and get them some commission. 

However, no commission is owed if the seller finds a buyer on his own, without any agent's help.

The only thing is working solely off commissions dosent give you the w2 income most lenders want to see when you go to buy your first property.

For a definitive answer, as opposed to opinions, call your state's real estate commission and ask them.

If you get caught talking to Sollars in person presenting solutions to them, the DRE it's going to consider that acting without a license with lease option flips.Now if you gonna buy on terms like subject to and wraparound mortgages, you don't need a license because you're acting as a principal and then you gonna own it, and nobody can tell you what to do after you own it.But it's advantageous to have a license because you can network with other attorneys and agents, split commissions, offer to list a house along with buying on terms.Lee there are no shortcuts in California, get your license@Dev Horn might want to add something, he is a great saying it we buy houses.com "be a real estate solutions provider for the seller"

I agree with Russell Brazil.What you are asking and what you want to do is far more complicated than you may expect.There are so many little details involved, if you miss something in the process you could be in trouble with the real estate commission, the law and the seller's lawyer.We teach these concepts at our agency and warn that this flipping process can be complicated.
