It'll be worth it and give yo more credibility to both customers and the agents you refer out to.A lot of veteran associations will refer to lenders and to realtors (ex. veterans united will refer to realtors for people getting loans with them), and those companies charge 40% referral fee and refer out to crappy people in my experience.

The $25K includes this basic scope: sidewalk repair, new porch floor, painting, new cabinets in kitchen, relocate kitchen plumbing (since I'm flipping the plan), renovate bathroom, replace small back deck, finish roof shingle work (they got half way through new shingles) add new front door and 2 windows.  

They also have great customer service and have been very helpful the one time we had an issue.
