And I would like to get commission on future deals between the 2 parties .What percentage is fair for me to ask gem the sellers side .What they want are distressed properties which they could buy that make sense to buy .If anyone here has a good sized amount of these types of properties maybe we can do business .But naturally I would like to know what is fair as far as my end .

Craigslist or your free local classifieds..with the title of "ATTENTION INVESTORS" or something along that nature to get some interested buyers. 

That's the nature of the world.30 years ago you probably would have been pretty sure that Playboy magazine and landline telephones would be relevant in 30 years.  20 years ago, you probably would have been pretty sure that physical maps would be relevant in 20 years.  10 years ago, you probably would have been pretty sure that DVD technology would have been relevant in 10 years.Things can change quickly, and if you only want to pursue ideas that will be relevant for 20-30 years, you're likely going to be disappointed.  

You can also even search for things like "handyman specials" or "investment properties"....things of that nature on your local classifieds. 

I understand your fear, I am shy by nature but I realized that in this business it requires talking.

So naturally, after briefing my superiors and getting the green light, I did it.  

Appreciation is not guaranteed of course, but with so many people moving here, and both natural and self-imposed limits to development, it's fairly obvious which direction real estate prices are going in this area.

You continue to 1031 slowly consolidating into properties that are easier and easier to manage or passive in nature like TIC or Delaware Statutory Trusts or land leases, etc.  

Yeah, I've noticed some properties need a bit of work, nothing major, and I think those are the ones that will most likely bite.I wondered because I see properties listing for say $100k, but one would naturally assume if you came to someone and said "I'll give you 63k cash", that they'd like balk at the idea. :)

A small number of unhappy customers is natural, because you simply can't please everyone.
