    Default I am looking for a reliable partner - (Realtor/Agent)

    Greetings,

    I am an experienced web marketing professional. I have access to qualified real estate leads: rental and sale across US and UK.

    I am not interested in selling these leads, I'd rather partner with a trustworthy realtor and let him do what he is good at so that I can make much more than just peanuts on selling these leads.

    In the past couple of months, I have had trouble finding a reliable partner since the partnership typically reaches a point where the deals start reaching higher values and my partners turn greedy.

    If you are interested in partnering with me, please feel free to PM me.

    best,
    JC

    stick with selling the leads... most agents in the US are not allowed to pay any part of a commission to an unlicensed agent (state regulations apply, so it depends). In Florida the practice you are suggesting is actually illegal, will cost the agent his or her license and could get both you and the agent indicted on criminal charges...

    Welcome Leadsmaster. Great to have you.

    Why would it be illegal to partner with this guy in Florida? While I might not a partner because I'm so new, someone might. Just curious.
    Work with a qualified, dedicated agent for your Beaufort SC real estate purchase. And if living in the Pee Dee region of South Carolina, make sure to visit one of the well respected Florence SC dentists for all your oral care needs..

    You should probably get licensed in the states you have real estate partners to ensure they aren't violating any respa regulations.

    It is illegal in Minnesota to pay a referral fee or compensate someone other than a licensed agent for anything having to do with a real estate transaction.

    While for the most part this is true. However, when dealing with international companies, the rules change quite a bit.

    Jessie,

    Be careful with that one. WE, not the people we are paying, are the ones regulated. The people we are paying may or may not be breaking any laws by receiving the money. I would certainly want Legal Representation in any such transaction.
