It is tough to be a bird dog for deals and property that is already listed for sale. Generally, just as you have done, you can get this information for free from the internet or any licensed realtor for free. If you have people that are interested in purchasing property and are retail buyers that have no realtor - you could ask a realtor for a "marketing fee" and sell them a lead. The better the lead the more money it is worth to a realtor. This is not a referral, and agents would not be able to pay referral fees to unlicensed professionals in most states.
Agents often buy leads, a lead is not tied to the outcome of a transaction so therefore not a referral. There is no guarantee that this individual will even work with the agent. It would be the agents responsibility to follow up and convert the lead to a sale. You would generally be able to charge $50 - $150 per lead possibly more if an agent fees there is value to the leads you are selling. I hope that this information helps!
