Other ways to pay a realtor

Ok so I am about to close on a property, once the lender finishes their loan committee, and my realtor is being paid of course via the seller at closing.  

However, is they a way to legally ask for a credit of those funds and pay the realtor via another method?  Via rent profits or just a monthly amount until paid back.  The deal was and is amazing however the lender needs me to bring another 125,000 to the closing table.  I have almost all of it but roughly the amount that my realtor is being paid.  Not trying to take from them at all and I’d be willing to add 500-1,000 to make it worthwhile.  Just wondering if that is a legal way to accomplish i?

Thanks

 The answer is yes any realtor can have their commissions to be credited into a deal, legally.
