He was trying to be nice and cut him a deal on the car but after it was sold, the minor damaged the vehicle and now his parents are threatening to sue on the grounds that a minor cannot enter into a contract but they helped him procure a loan for the said purchase.

Whoever shows them the property is the procuring cause of the sale, and they are due the commission.

But, the avenues of approach I have used to procure funding have at this point fell through.

.: The fees are about market rate for PM companies although the repair is a little high imo - the issue sounds like they procured a bad tenant.

The commission agreement reads "The parties agree that Sam Smith on Broker’s behalf has procured for Owner a tenant, Mega Furniture & Material For Less II".

I hope to have the opportunity to work with a BRRR investor in the future and potentially help with analyzing the deal and getting contractor quotes ( I was a Procurement Consultant in my past life :))

Another factor is that you've already gone way down the path of viewing theme and negotiating numbers, and so if you brought an agent on now they may not be considered the Procuring Cause.As for whether or not you should bring on an agent to represent you, I would say that depends on how much experience you have doing deals.

That being said, the more important factor to consider is time to procure items.

However, we are being told that is “procuring a buyer for a 3rd party without a Realtor License” and that it’s “illegal.”

This is a tenant that we procurred ourselves after buying the unit.My other thought about correcting the issue, as mentioned already, is to adjust the lease to make the rent due on the 15th.
