Nugget's Nuggets on VA Benefits

Summary

In this conversation, Matt "Nugget" Daniels discusses four ways to make passive income in real estate. The first method is to become a referral agent, where your job is to have conversations and educate people about real estate, and then refer them to an active agent. The second method is to join a brokerage that offers revenue share, where you can earn a percentage of the transactions brought in by agents you attract to the brokerage. The third method is to join a brokerage that allows you to purchase stock and bonuses you for buying that stock. The fourth method is to become a real estate agent and also get your MLO license to write loans, allowing you to earn commissions as both an agent and an MLO on the same transaction.
