I would never just pick a random name and refer them, hoping for a blind 25% referral fee.Also as a licensed agent, if you're a buyer in another state, you could make an unrepresented offer and ask the listing broker to send you a 25-30% referral for yourself.

That capital doesn't land randomly.

They might as well state they pick a value at random because it would be no less correct than basing a duplex value on NOI.How can they justify a valuation that is contrary to federal guidelines, not consistent with the purchase price or consistent with the value the property can be sold for?   

I’m open to doing the work and really want hands-on exposure rather than buying random courses.

protecting your hard-earned capital is a valid instinct.buying a random on market property and losing money just to "do a deal" or "own a door" makes zero sense.so what am i doing? 

It’s usually not random. 

That happens when maintenance records live in email threads, PM portals, and random spreadsheet tabs instead of one place organized by property.

I’ve always been passionate about real estate, and I know my WHY and that's to build generational wealth.

I have been seeing a lot of AI generated replies and a lot of it is garbage LOL. 

Most aren’t looking for random partners — they want deals, capital, or someone who can actually analyze numbers correctly.Get sharp at underwriting (ARV, rehab, holding, resale).
