I would also say if you will be a repeat buyer and this broker/agent is bringing you really good deals  then maybe overlook it for the sake of the gain in the long run.If this is a one and done property and you are tapped out with cash and can't buy anything for a long time then you might fight the charge depending on what you signed.No legal advice.

Even then, keep in mind that most plan facilitators, while knowledgeable about their specialty products, are not acting as your CPA and capable of providing the type of comprehensive analysis of your personal situation that a licensed tax advisor can, so you may likely want to learn about your plan options then confer with your tax professional to confirm your approach.Best of luck to you as you get familiar with BP!
