Earn Sourcing Fees Without Capital

Deal sourcing is the professional investor's side hustle. You're not buying. You're finding. You earn a fee (typically 1-3% of deal value) when your buyer completes. No capital tied up. No landlording headaches. Just deal flow.

The Reality Of Deal Sourcing

Most deals never close. You'll source ten deals. Maybe three will close. That's a 30% conversion rate. Build your fee expectations around that. Also, you're dependent on your buyer's finance and motivation. A deal that's perfect for them might not work if their mortgage falls through. Stay professional. Keep the relationship intact. There's always the next deal.

Why Deal Sourcing Works

Why Deal Sourcing Works

Earn Fees Without Buying

Build a network of serious buyers first. Find 5-10 investors who have capital and are actively looking. Then source deals for them. Don't source then hunt for buyers. You'll waste time on deals that don't fit anyone.

Build Network Of Serious Investors

Present deals professionally. Spreadsheet with: purchase price, refurb cost (if applicable), projected value, cashflow, yield, why it's a deal. Your buyer shouldn't have to ask questions. Make the case clear.

Minimal Capital Investment

Negotiate your fee upfront before you present the deal. 1% of deal value is standard. 2-3% if you're adding significant value (project management, finance sourcing, etc.). Get it in writing with your buyer.

Deal sourcing funds my investing. I source 2-3 deals monthly, earn £2-5k fees per deal. That's £24-60k annual passive-ish income. I use it to fund my own BRRR deals. Best of both worlds.

How it works

How it works

How it works

How it works

  1. Build a network of serious property buyers

Find 5-10 investors with capital and active purchasing criteria. Understand what they want: location, price range, property type, minimum yield. These are your buyers.

  1. Source deals that fit your buyers

Use your networks and data sources to find properties. Quickly analyse whether they fit a buyer's criteria. Present only viable deals professionally with full numbers.

  1. Close and collect your fee

Buyer moves forward. You stay loosely involved for credibility. Deal completes. You collect your sourcing fee. Build reputation. Source more deals.

Common questions

Common questions

How much can I earn sourcing deals?

1-3% of deal value. A £250k deal at 1% = £2,500 fee. Three deals monthly = £7,500. Annual potential: £36-90k depending on activity and deal size.

How do I find deals to source?

Networks, off-market contacts, motivated sellers, estate agents (some will split fees), auctions. Use the same sources you'd use to buy yourself.

Can I source while I'm also buying?

Yes. But your first obligation is to your buyer, not yourself. If a deal is perfect for your network, source it. If it's perfect for you, take it. Most investors do both.

What if a deal falls through?

You don't get paid. That's the risk. Don't spend the fee until money is in your account.
