As a petroleum engineer you probably make more than most agents.Always depends on your objectives, make commission selling homes or building equity and cash flow.Keep you day job, save some cash, buy a fixer home with an FHA rehab loan with just 3.5% down.

Even as realtors they are required to pay to the mentor 25-50% of the commission from how to write a purchase contract for several transactions.

Does anyone have any advice regarding which Broker is the most investor friendly and how do you handle commissions and fees of your own properties?

. - True or false - You must have a real estate license to use the forms posted on the Texas Real Estate Commission’s website?

I just wanted to know as a seller if there was anyway to save on the selling commission?

What do you all think is a fair commission cut of a wholesale fee for an inside sales agent that: contacts the leads (i provide the lead), sets appointment, goes on appointment and communicates our offer to the seller, does everything he can to get them to a “yes” and then the back office sends out the contract and takes over the closing and marketing to find a buyer from thereI pay for the marketing and advertising to get the leads, i run all comps and numbers and provide the offer price to make, i write up the contract and send to seller, and handle all of the marketing and communications with BuyersAny advice is helpful!

In this case, the listing agent gets the whole commission.

The income that I loss for letting him to stay there is about the same or a little bit less compared with the 10% commissions for a property management.

If you're planning on flipping, the sales commission from the 3% on the back end should be $3k-$5k in addition to any profit you make. $5k should be your profit if the rehab goes over budget and takes longer than expected to exit.
