Just wondering if anyone can give any insight into the world of deal spotters?

Once they find a deal how do they secure it and onsell it so to speak?

How do they calculate how much they sell the deal for (their fee)?

Is anyone out there making money from selling deals? e.g deals with development potential or high yield etc?
