It’s a method of shared ownership allowing someone with the experience, knowledge and track record to offer superior risk related returns to passive investors and receive adequate compensation based partially or in whole on the success of the deal. 

I am not licensed in your state but generally you can have the investor buyer sign a buyer broker agreement that spells out compensation should you be the one who brings him a deal, who pays, how much, etc. 

i found out the GREC doesnt get compensation for you they just punish the property manager.   

This is not the type of tenant I would allow to be behind market rents and may raise to slightly over market to compensate you for your time.  

Compensate an agent that feeds you, of course, but having to pay a full commission on something this skinny is a recipe for 'character building'!  

I would love the opportunity to work with anyone in the College Station, Austin, Waco, and Houston area for no compensation.

I didn't find them through you, but want you to get compensated for your efforts even though you didn't sell the house- would you take $5k for the hours you've done so far and Ill do everything from here?"

This way, if they back out, at no fault of yours, you still get compensated for the deal!

How are you compensating them (hourly, piece work, etc)?

@Kevin R.Such transaction is not deemed prohibited as long as it is done hands off and you don't receive any type of compensation for serving as the trustee of the 401k plan.
