assignment fee question

[Account Closed]

how big an assignment fee can someone take without it being objected to by the end buyers. what I mean is can you take a large assignment fee say like $50,000 if the deal still a good deal afterwords or are you likely to get an objection from the end buyer?

The highest I have ever negotiated was $25k back in 2007. The craziest part about that was there was a guy wholesaling it to us for $15k.

The end buyer made the most though in the end. Which is why she didnt care when she saw both assignment fees. She still got a smokin deal and made plenty on the rehab and resale.

But I guess average assignment fees for us are $2k-$5k.

People will try and negotiate your assignment fees down when they see them and the original contract. Be prepared and patient if you need to be. Good luck!
