It is a combination of a CRM, deal flow tool, and broker commission tracking.

As an investor and an agent I can put 5% down and get 3% (more or less) back in commission.

Last year, I had told by several syndicator that I invest to their deal and will receive negative K1 then use those negative K1 to offset my ordinary Income include my commission from 1099 because I am qualify as real estate professional.

MLS works well, and you find qualified leads, but you do end up having to pay a large commission to other realtors.  

Furthermore, the agent neglected to inform me that I could have negotiated for the seller to cover part of their commission.

I would love to learn how to do ALL of the process and instead of small commission on a JV contract, to be able to do this all myself and start my own LLC...

(I "gave" year one and we had an agreed on commission for PM starting in year 2 to reflect I'm 24/7 managing).

Try to get most of your learning out of the way before you try to do a transaction.Buyer seller agent    Commission splitNo subject to financingZoningMarket 3/2 2/1 parking school districts addl ADU property taxes insurance flood zones etc etc.  

Real estate agents main priority is to make a commission, always remember that.

Moreover you don't have to pay any fees, commission or standard closing cost either.Let me know if this interest you.
