I have heard of similar cases where the first agent was awarded the commission because they were found to be the "procuring cause" of the transaction.

In fact, it was required the rehab be complete in order to get the financing so they required a licensed contractor be procured to bid and complete the work.

There is nothing wrong with waiting for the listing to expire and presenting the offer to the seller if the agent didn't procure the sale.

A sells land to B, with right of assignmentC claims a due course title to the assignment and offers to split the gross proceeds with real estate agent D if D can procure a buyer for the assignment rights.How do you describe D's role in this arrangement, which is based on the details in a lawsuit?

After procuring my real estate license in March, I spent most days analyzing properties to visit.

@John Stone if your agent was the procuring cause then they are entitled to the commission.

The more properties you procure the more you both will become comfortable in your roles.

What I can offer to you: I have problem-solving and financial skills: I have an engineering degree and an MBA in finance.I have 12 years’ experience in Procurement for Fortune 100 companies, covering the range from tactical purchasing through complex contract negotiation for all kinds of goods and services.I can help to find deals: You probably have an established process to scour for deals but need someone with the time to do it.

I also found the following statement in the contract which they are arguing states the current agent will get commission as long as the current renter is in the property: "Agent shall receive commision for the unexpired term, or renewals therof, of any Lease made by Agent and/or Owner during the Term of this Agreement and shall receive such commission for as long as any such tenants(s) procured by Agent remains in the property.

One of the most difficult aspects of this job is procuring leads.
