I'm a real estate agent with the largest brokerage inside the city & locally-owned, Plat Collective.

2)your current situation is EXACTLY proof why I am right.You are not having success and you can't possibly troubleshoot why, because you don't know what the hell the VA is doing... how, nor do you understand lead gen (if you did you would NEVER have a VA do it).So my friend.. after scolding you... now I will help you.First, figure out a GOOD lead gen system. 

Odds are good the listing agent will just collect the buyers and sellers commission in that situation, so all you have done is given up representation and not saved money.As far as the comment about recording cameras, it is very common for sellers to place hidden cameras in their properties.

Prop the most hardest question , what is a respectable and ideal fee to collect?

They would be free to question every transaction and the burden of proof is on ME to show it was or wasn't income. 

Do you have direct proof that the contractor is capable of doing this kind of work?

Once you are able to make the property a rental, hire a property manager to handle rent collection, repairs etc.

Not your responsibility to collect twice.
