| How did you get your start in the industry? Posted: 01 Sep 2020 12:01 AM PDT So, I'm considering a career change from a tradesman to a realtor, with the goal being selling houses rather than being a property manager etc. I worked in sales for 5 years before starting my trade, and I was good at it. Over the last 11 months I've been reading a lot of books on sales and persuasion, the goal was to get into copywriting and BDM, but I'm liking the idea of real estate more lately. I have a keen interest in properties, especially high end real estate as this is what I work on in my trade. I've looked at how to get qualified, and here in Weatern Australia the biggest real estate institution - REIWA offers a plethora of courses and qualifications. My question is, do you think it's reasonable of me to expect to be given a job selling properties if I've only studied through REIWA and read all these books or will I be expected to start at a more entry level job and work my way up? I make good money now in my trade, I'm expecting to earn about 40% less for the first year I work in real estate but I can't justify longer than that so I'm hoping I won't be expected to start in a junior role earing something stupidly low. TL:DR I want to make a career change into real estate, wondering how people who have done this got their start. [link] [comments] |
| Anyone in the Denver area just getting their license? Posted: 01 Sep 2020 12:21 PM PDT I'm looking to brainstorm, learn, and overall make my getting back into real estate more enjoyable. I have a decent amount of experience but I took an extended time off of real estate and need to get refocused. When I Owen Ed and manages a small office I liked helping new Realtors because it helped me stay sharp. [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 01 Sep 2020 11:50 AM PDT Anyone have input on a good site to buy For Sale signs hanging off a post for the front yard? Also, any inputs onto the typical sizes and materials (steel, PVC, aluminum) would be great. Buildasign.com told me that 0.040 aluminum was their most popular choice and Lowensign.com told me that 24 gauge steel was their best. [link] [comments] |
| How to break up with a realtor, who's also a family friend? Posted: 01 Sep 2020 11:22 AM PDT I'm kinda looking for an outside point of view. My realtor, we'll call him Jim, has helped my family sell our last house and find the townhome we're currently in. We're ready to sell and buy again but we don't know if he's the right fit. Jim isn't very experienced, as we're slowly learning, and he only does this part time. He's constantly busy with his kids and second job, it'll take him 1-3 days to respond to a text, every single time. My sister broke up with him as she is selling her home and looking for a new one and she's learning from her new realtor that he doesn't really know the ins and outs of what it means to be a realtor. For example, during home inspections the realtor has to be there in order to advocate for the home seller. And a number of random little things. Its like he seldom ever knows the answers to things. My sister suggested to me that I just lie to him and say that I'm no longer looking, so I don't hurt his feelings. But then never respond to him again if he asks, in the future, if I'm ready to look. What my sister and her husband told him was kind of the truth and they feel that the relationship can't be mended. He took it in stride but they feel like he's secretly hurt and its affecting everything. Jim means well, he's a nice guy. But i just don't feel so confident with him. Advice? Thanks in advance [link] [comments] |

| Fannie Mae Remodeling Foreclosure? Posted: 01 Sep 2020 01:04 AM PDT There is a home listed as a Fannie Mae Homepath property but it is completely remodeled in 2020. I am thinking this is a foreclosure right, does Fannie Mae remodel homes before listing for sale? If so, is this common? [link] [comments] |
| I chose Windermere as my first brokerage! Posted: 31 Aug 2020 08:46 PM PDT Thanks everyone for your help! I chose Windermere Yakima as my first brokerage here in Washington state! [link] [comments] |
| What to Ask When Interviewing Firms Posted: 31 Aug 2020 02:09 PM PDT I just got my license and am now starting to interview firms to work with. What questions should I be asking? What should I be looking for? [link] [comments] |
| Posted: 31 Aug 2020 08:55 PM PDT What's the biggest commission check you've personally ever collected? Like, Net? [link] [comments] |
| Chart of Posts in This Group, No? Posted: 31 Aug 2020 02:37 PM PDT It seems that the same questions keep popping up, sometimes even multiples in the same day. I find this group extremely helpful as I'm sure others do too, is there a way to filter this stuff to the new agents thread? [link] [comments] |
| How to handle demands for additional inspections? Posted: 31 Aug 2020 04:20 PM PDT I've got a weird situation where my sellers are being asked to accommodate additional inspections outside of the *extended* inspection period. There was a lot of really shady back and forth during the inspection phase and it ended in no repairs + an addendum for a large amount of money that is the equivalent to double of our repair estimates. My clients describe it as having the sale being held hostage in the inspection phase and had to pay for the convenience of not re-listing. I don't think it was as bad as all that, but it was pretty irritating. Anyway, now everything is signed and we're awaiting final walk through which isn't until the end of September. But the buyer's agent contacts us daily asking to send out various types of repair people to look at things. The sellers have decided based on how underhanded the inspection period was, they won't be allowing any contractors or inspectors on the property until closing. After 5 days of this crap they finally said they'll let them have one extra day of as many inspectors as they want if they do a hard release of their earnest money. It's been another 5 days for a total of 10 now where we're asked every day for this, and we respond with "release the earnest money." My clients are annoyed but I feel like I have a duty to relay the questions. Any advice on this? For what its worth, there's nothing wrong with the property, the buyers are genuinely nuts.
