    Should I wait to start my RE agent career? (moving to a different state in approx. 1 year)

    Posted: 07 Oct 2020 10:48 AM PDT

    Hello everyone!

    I will be moving from Illinois to Florida in about a year, give or take. I can't come to the conclusion on whether or not I should start my RE agent career here, or just wait until I move. If I were to wait, I would utilize my time by taking the 63 hours, doing the fingerprints, etc.. (all the background work) so that when I am offically moved, I would be set to go after a brokerage. I would educate myself with other sources, such as books and courses, during the time being. I am still iffy on that because I would like to have in person experience (we all know the line, "Knowledge is worth nothing unless it's put into action).

    I would love to hear everyones opinion/take on this. Everything is greatly appreciated! Thank you in advance.

    Somethings you should know about me (if it any factor in for help):

    -19 years old

    - Attending community college (in which I do not enjoy. I feel like college just isn't the right flow for me).

    - With school being online, I have alot of time on my hands.

    - I work only 3 days a week with the opportunity of working more if I were to drop out of college.

    3D mapping home tours

    Posted: 06 Oct 2020 10:58 PM PDT

    Do most listing agents create their own 3d tour for the listing or do they outsource to a 3d/360 mapping company to come in and do it?

    Thinking about getting into 3d/360 tours but not sure if this is a bad idea.

    Thanks!

    question on how to contact realtors

    Posted: 07 Oct 2020 12:24 PM PDT

    I'm wondering are realters part of an organization or semi contractors?

    I'm want to start a dialog with real estate agents but I'm not sure if I should contact all of them individually? Or as a firm?

    We would be working with realtors on an one on one basis< hence my question>

    Question for listing agents.

    Posted: 06 Oct 2020 06:26 PM PDT

    Question for listing agents. I have my first listing appointment coming up, and was wondering if any of you all send out a pre-listing packet? If so what info do you include in a pre listing packet Vers your listing presentation, and do you feel this helps you win the listing or set you apart from other agents they maybe interviewing? TIA!

    Any good ways for a newbie to refresh his knowledge after getting his license but never entering the field for years?

    Posted: 06 Oct 2020 07:44 PM PDT

    Long story short (I live in New York for the record), I got my salesperson license at the end of 2017.

    I'm a software engineer by training and it took a couple beatings on the head and some PTSD from a couple jobs to realize that maybe I should try something different because it wasn't doing it for me like it did in school.

    After I got my license, I got a call from an engineering recruiter and I was suckered into another engineering role because my boss happened to be a friend of a friend and I didn't think it would be as bad as the last time. Plus I figured it would take time to build up my real estate business and start earning money, so having a steady paycheck in the meantime would be nice. I had the paycheck, but no time for real estate. The job ended like all the others in August 2019 and me resenting engineering yet again. I hit a few bumps in the road with my physical (epilepsy) and mental health as well. So my idea of doing real estate on the side and gradually building it up until I could leave engineering never panned out.

    Having said that, now that I'm out of that world and I'm doing better health-wise, I want to give it another try. Unfortunately since I never got to put my license to use beyond the classroom (a couple seizures and mental breakdowns didn't help), I literally forgot almost EVERYTHING. All the vocabulary and jargon are all gone. Someone may as well have smashed that part of my brain with a meat cleaver.

    Now, I know my license is expired, but I'm within the 2 year grace period to renew it; that much I do know. I am enrolled in an online CE class that I'm slowly chipping away at. I say "chipping away" because while the stuff in there is easy, I don't feel confident enough to call myself a realtor without a solid foundation of the fundamentals.

    I suppose I could just take the class again or read the book cover to cover; although I'm more of an auditory learner than a textbook learner. I also found this YouTube channel to be incredibly helpful at bringing some of my memory back; although it's North Carolina and not New York. I'm wondering if anybody else has any other ideas or options. I'm not a Realtor since I'm no longer licensed, so unfortunately I don't have access to any of those resources.

    Fortunately, as I do watch those videos, some of it does come back and seems to make more sense now than it did when I first took the class.

    I could also be worrying a whole lot about nothing too since most of the learning ultimately comes from on the job like anything else.

    Anyone pay $1,500 a month for it, and is it worth it in your opinion?

    Any insight or tips welcome!

    (Side note, why is there a "shitpost" flair for this subreddit, LOL!)

    I really do not know what to do with my life and am thinking about doing wholesaling real estate

    Posted: 06 Oct 2020 09:28 PM PDT

    So I am currently a senior in high school and am 18 right now. I've always tried hard in school because I always wanted to go to college. But when I entered my senior year I really started to look in to other ways to make money. I still want to go to college, but I don't know if I can whole sale while in college. I am pretty much going to get a full ride from a local university for computer science so I do not have to pay for it. If anyone has any advice as if I should start whole sailing realestate or how I should do it please comment. I have about 2k in my bank that I have saved up from a job that I had.

    Exactly how bad is the supply in your area?

    Posted: 06 Oct 2020 02:08 PM PDT

    In my ENTIRE COUNTY we have 102 available SFD homes available. Thats anywhere from the $35k RV camper/lot to the $1.5mil mansion. Pretty much the only thing available are vacation/2nd homes or the retirement home for the 1% in the area. The average 3/2 home sells for $180-$215k here. They pop up rarely and gone quick.
