Yes, you can earn money in real estate in Florida, risk-free, by committing nothing more than your time. Become a real estate property finder, it's a perfect opportunity for those who are interested in earning extra income and learning about investing through part-time or weekend work.

The truth of it is, real estate investing is an extraordinary path to financial freedom, but not everyone has the money or the credit to invest in education or properties themselves.

But there is a risk-free way for you to start. In fact, many full-time investors started out by finding properties for other investors as a way to learn the business, earn extra cash, and take their first step toward their OWN financial freedom.

If this is something for you, head on over to get more details and answers to all your questions. You can get started in Orlando and vicinity, St. Petersburg, Lehigh Acres, Fort Myers, Cape Coral, West Palm Beach, Miami and many more cities. Learn as you go and we'll teach you a few things about seller financing, subject to, rent to own and how to call FSBO homeowners.

Thanks for pointing that out to me @John Thedford . What do those numbers you refer to exactly? How about a partnership instead? And do you know of other states where it's not feasible?

 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".
