I'm an investor from outside of the US

Hi everyone,

I would like to get some tips from investors that live outside of the US.

I already have a rental apartment in Orlando but I bought this apartment with the help of some company that takes a commission.

now I want to do it myself if it is possible.

Thank you for your help!

Daniel

HI @Daniel Shnaider, welcome to Bigger Pockets!  If you are speaking specifically about the commission that the real estate agent earned on the purchase, then the way(s) to get around that would be:

  1. 1. Become a real estate agent
  2. 2. Use a "kickback" service that kicks part of your commission back to you (like Redfin)

If it is the property management role that you'd like to do yourself that is a different task, but perhaps the easier one to accomplish.

Can you confirm:  you'd like to get rid of the real estate agent portion or the property management portion?
