I will compensate you for your time.ThanksRob Rob

Don’t fall into a trap of poor decision-making because you are looking for shortcuts to compensate for a dwindling bank account balance.

@Michaela G. will add a small management fee of 6%-8% to the CAM to compensate her for the effort of organizing all the services required to keep this small retail property a place where her (4) tenants business' can thrive for many years.

What if I offered $0 security deposit and, say, $5,300 rent to compensate me for the additional risk? 

If a PM is doing the work then obviously they earn the compensation.

In order to compensate the buyer's agent for the extra work and to also gain a competitive advantage over other condos for sale in my complex, I would like to offer the buyer's agent a 4-5% commission instead of 3%.

Do you just try to compensate for the potential % increase per year? 

I'd screen the tenants the same way as I screen the property and just let the seller know that if they have bad tenants in place, either the offer goes down by $X-thousand to compensate me for the inevitable chaos, or demand the property be delivered vacant at closing .  

I'm always amazed, when someone is compensated on a percentage basis, why they expect a raise in rate or additional fees.

Usually they will charge you a minimum compensation per deal that is closed, but they can do the paperwork, closing coordination, walk throughs, coordinate inspections, etc.
