Hi Mack, generally in our market for that product, there aren't fees for buyer's brokers and most people end up reaching out to listing brokers to try to get on their email blast list when they list something.

.- A rate-lock was provided on January 10th locking in the rate of 3.75%- Today (Janurary 21st) my mortgage lender called to tell me they had to re-run our credit and my girlfriends credit dropped to 679, one point below the minimum acceptable for the product we were offered.

This is or at least should be work for folks selling real estate related products or services.

There may also be some sort of production payment contract that comes along with it where the utility pays a certain amount for any electricity the system puts on the grid, so there could be some income from the system on top of that $1,000 in energy savings. 

I couldn't take the risk, so I declined renting to that couple. 

On top of that, I was paying for CRMs, websites, E&O, lead generation, marketing, etc.Lots of extra money going out + my own diminished production + non-performing agents = me being exhausted, discouraged and broke.  

They can be very location specific, so you really need to do the work of contacting all of your local banks and CUs to see what kind of products they offer.

I have been writing letters to owners for a very similar product in my market, but at this point no one is willing to sell. 

As an agent, you are solely responsible for the production of your entire income.

What products are they offering?
