Those are Florida statutes. 475 is the statute that covers real estate brokering. You have a couple of options though: if you use a licensed agent, you CAN legally pay them a commission. That being said, the entire country is NUTS on RE investing. Everyone is doing it...and that makes it tough to find decent deals. If you REALLY want to find good deals, find a market and market that area as cash buyers. You cannot compete against stupid money, and those new investors, unless doing it right, are going to pay too much to make it worthwhile to compete against them. Another EXCELLENT avenue is to work the foreclosures. This requires a LOT of due diligence but if you can find a good title company to work with, they can run a title report to make sure you are buying first liens. State laws will vary...but the magic word is "commission".
