| Posted: 26 Jul 2020 05:53 AM PDT What are the benefits of obtaining a P.A. or LLC when it comes to tax time? Please provide a real life example of the pros. Everyone just tells me "you save money"... [link] [comments] |
| How wide of an area can you be effectively knowledgable in? Posted: 26 Jul 2020 10:27 AM PDT I'm working through my pre-exam classes and should be getting my license in the next month. My wife and I are moving to a new city at the same time and I'm wondering how big a radius can one agent be effective in? One city? One city with surrounding suburbs? A whole county? Obviously this must vary wildly depending on area, so I'm just wondering what everybody's experience is. [link] [comments] |
| Houston TX - is an offer letter a binding contract? Posted: 26 Jul 2020 10:24 AM PDT Is an offer letter a binding contract? I'm interested to buy a wooded 8acre lot with no structure on it. It's in 100yr floodplain. The seller is not working with realtors and a lot this size is rare to find in the area I'm looking. So I'm trying to write the offer letter but I'm not a realtor and don't know what I should include in the offer letter to avoid a "gotcha" later on. [link] [comments] |
| Has anyone switched their business model from seldom buyer/sellers to more investment oriented? Posted: 25 Jul 2020 08:06 PM PDT I'm thinking of switching my business model from focusing primarily on my sphere to a more investor oriented. A little background: I've had my license for 7 months and I'm already on my 2nd brokerage. I plan on staying at this one for a while. I am getting more active on social media and even post informational videos on my IG stories. My SM is made primarily of my sphere and I also try to generate leads by other means as well. The people who contact me about assisting are enthusiastic at 1st but over time they fall off and go radio silent. Don't get me wrong, I know consistency and perseverance is huge in this business so I won't stop my drip campaigns and reaching out What I've noticed though is that I'm using too much energy on that group rather than looking for investments for myself and also for other investors. Investing in RE has always been my main goal but I got my license just to see how transactions start from finish to end and pick up traditional transactions as well. I want to hear from anyone who has either made the switch or just focus primarily on investments? Was it tough or the best thing you've ever done? [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 26 Jul 2020 06:49 AM PDT Do you feel like you have to hide your tattoos when you first meet a potential client? When I'm finally working with a client I show my tattoos (on my arms) but the first meet up I never do. [link] [comments] |
| How do you attract people for open house? Posted: 25 Jul 2020 09:09 PM PDT What strategies do you use to host a successful open house? Open house signs is a obvious thing. Knocking neighbour doors is also obvious. Apart from this what else do you guys do? [link] [comments] |
| What questions should I ask potential mentors Posted: 25 Jul 2020 05:59 PM PDT My brokage has a mentor program and I get interview several before I choose one. What questions do you think I should ask them? My background: I have a stay at home parent for almost five years and this is completely new career for me. Before I had my sons I was a massage therapist and ran my own practice. I also have a business degree. [link] [comments] |
| What sort of fees should I expect when signing up with a broker? Posted: 25 Jul 2020 07:29 PM PDT I've tried speaking with my local board but since they're closed down in my area due to covid I'm a little lost in where to ask, (I've tried asking different brokers and they all tell me something different) What am I looking at paying monthly for being apart of a board and the MLS and are you here any initial fees that come with getting MLS access (Every board is different so I understand prices will very but I would appreciate it if you guys could help me out in getting an idea) (California) [link] [comments] |
| New to farming & sending flyers Posted: 26 Jul 2020 01:17 AM PDT Which service/website do you guys use to get the best prices to ship mailers in a specific demographic/zip code? If you have experience & advice on mailers i would love to hear them! Thanks [link] [comments] |
| Question from a prospective tenant on realtor relationship Posted: 25 Jul 2020 01:38 PM PDT My wife and I are looking for a house/apartment to rent and have been working with a realtor for the last two weeks. She's been fantastic - very responsive and helpful, setting up appointments and taking us to see lots of places, etc. We've seen exclusively places where the landlord was represented by an agent (i.e., where our agent would get a commission if we signed a lease). We tried to get one house and were not selected. We applied for another one and have been waiting for a week on an answer - it's unclear if we will be selected there. Most other places have been a bit out of our price range or total dumps. Our current lease expires on July 31, so we need to get something firmed up very soon. Today, we went and toured an apartment complex and a privately-owned house without our realtor (with her knowledge), and if we signed with either one (which is a good possibility) she would not get a commission. She has told us that she is totally fine and that she recognized this could happen. We feel terrible, because she has really put in the extra effort to help us out and it has NOT been her fault that we haven't gotten something sewn up yet or that we haven't signed with an agent-represented property. We've offered to pay her something for her time in the event she doesn't end up with a commission. She said that is not necessary, it's her job, and that "it will come around." Our plan is to rent for a year and then likely buy a home (which she knows), and we will absolutely use her when we do. Would it be insulting to send her a gift and/or check? Are there any other factors we should consider? [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 25 Jul 2020 01:23 PM PDT Title says it all. Honestly a little shaky on the practice quizzes/exams I've taken with my online course (RealEstateExpress.com) averaging like 70% on them. Wondering if anyone has had much luck with PrepAgent and if it's worth $100. [link] [comments] |
| Are questions on the RE exam more asking for definitions, or situational scenarios? Posted: 25 Jul 2020 01:15 PM PDT I have my test next week Friday and am honestly not doing as hot as I thought I'd be right now. Any advice would be helpful! Currently doing all of the practice quizzes/exams/flashcards with my online provider RealEstateExpress.com. Any other advice on how to pass would be greatly appreciated! [link] [comments] |
