Hello Bigger pockets,
I have a realtor that has presented me with some potential tenants for my property. They are asking for the 1st month's rent as compensation. I've never heard of anyone using a realtor to find a home for rent to be honest, but I was wondering is this a scam and if not is the 1st months rent an expected finders' fee?

Glad to hear you are making the jump into the DC market! Send any questions our way as there are quite a few of us on the board. Do you know what price points, neighborhoods, and rehab budgets would be ideal for you?
Hi Aaron,

I look forward to meeting new people and hear new ideas.
