I'm a local broker and PM, your brokerage will be the key to your success in this business if you're focusing on sales.

its creating some friction with brokers that are representing buyers  Listing agents no change.the commish is becoming a negotiation just like a home inspection..

This put us in a significant disadvantage on selling, buyer has to have 20% down and buyer needs to use a Non QM lender too instead of a standard back or broker...

However, proceed with caution, as these may come with higher interest rates.Relationship Building and Education:Building relationships with local lenders and mortgage brokers is crucial.

@Karina Busch  Any competent mortgage broker or mortgage banker can do this for you.

If they close and sign up with us then we do a site walk etc and begin onboarding.I am also a broker who assists in finding the property, doing walkthroughs etc and I get paid a commission at closing from seller.Long story short I would expect them to give you an analysis of properties you are interested in for free based on the hopes of future business, if you want them to go above and beyond and attend showings etc then ask them if they are interested and offer them compensation for their time :)

I have talk to 4 insurance brokers, and directly to many companies such as allstate, steadily, safeco, liberty, american summit, american family, and a few other, but am basically out of options.

Is that really the only option available via a mortgage broker?
