While there are many realtors that do operate as a fiduciary, compensation is never aligned with being a true fiduciary. 

This is even true if what you state is true but you left off that it used a low LTV or had a great value add. 

Not sure why, or if that was even true, so I created a "coming soon" and a few days before closing as mentioned above.

Hey BP Community.I was presented with a deal recently that seemed too good to be true.

@Trent Stone Its true you can use a dollar for earnest money but there are a couple things to take note of. 1.

Our ARV held true for the entirety of this project and sold at the exact price point we predicted, the only issue was the renovation taking far longer than expected and that hurt our profit margin.

Any of this true?

It helps with my thought processes.The main difference is that a true cash deal leaves all of the money in the property unless you refi out, whereas this approach gets me back $5-6K back each year. 

They will all want to see that money in the form of true at risk equity whether that be through syndication or through partnerships.
