@Eric Bowlin When I stated above that the best deals rarely make it to a listing, I was not thinking of residential properties (1-4 units), but commercial multi-units ... and then, primarily 24+ units.Commercial is a slightly different game.You may occasionally find a small multi (6 - 10 or 12 units) listed by a residential realtor, but they typically won't be write home material.  

But many people don't want to spend more time with family  :)  And are happy making what they make.So even though this is a nice thought James its a total waste of time and effort in my mind unless you actually get to were the real material is talked about we all know the first two prgrams are simply upsell.

If so, you can get two 30 inch vanity bases with drawers and butt them together; cost about $500 for that way of doing a 60 inch base, plus the top I showed earlier and all done for $750 or so in materials (at least in my area). 

, i do want to get my realtors license this year that is one thing i plan on doing. however i don't want to stop my current job i like what i do and I'm in for a possible promotion to a 70k salary which would be nice to have for investing .and yes i have checked out a few pod casts and pan to check out the whole collection!

More specifically if I send out marketing material would I have to send it out saying I am a realtor?

As other BP members have mentioned, this is a good opportunity to try to negotiate a price reduction as it is a materially different fact that was represented to you prior to escrow.  

Further, no money upfront ever...you buy materials, not them.

Usually the promoters of such syndicates invest some of their own cash into the deal so they get a slice of the equity. 

I only had to buy the materials.

Given this mark-up is included as a separate cost, it would seem reasonable to assume the material costs are just that-- costs, and not retail pricing including a margin for a contractor (reported separately).
