    Realtors: Any clue why a realtor would not want to list a property?


    Any clue why a realtor would not want to list a property?

    Posted: 19 Dec 2020 09:17 AM PST

    I have 4 vacant buildable lots 33 X 100 all in a row in Pittsburgh. I want to get them listed for sale but two different realtors I contacted would not come up with a price. They didn't even ask me to list them? They told me to come up with a price and I'm not sure what they are truly worth. I'm a bit confused?? Why would they not want the business?

    For home owners and successful listing agents

    Is a pre listing packet really worth it?

    Most coaching teaches agents to use a pre listing packet to win listings. In my opinion, home owners don't much care for them.

    Agents and homeowners what say you?

    Finishing up classes... questions about starting

    Posted: 18 Dec 2020 02:36 PM PST

    1) I know that when finding a broker you are more interviewing them and there's plenty of information about what questions to ask. However, I'm wondering if it's really that easy or are there reasons a broker you decide you want to hang your license with would not to let you? Is that common? What questions should I be prepared for a broker to ask me in an interview?

    2) I'm working on getting my kiddo into daycare before I start and it looks like my only option might be one that can only take her Mon-Thu. If I'm only able to go into the office Mon-Thu will that hurt my ability to get into the brokerage that I want? I'm obviously going to have something in place for a babysitter should I need to show a house or meet with a client on a Friday.

    3) What is the typical process like after you start? Does "desk fees" mean that they will literally provide a desk for you at their office? Do you typically shadow someone who helps to show you the ropes? I know every place will be different, just looking for some general info to prepare myself.

    Any other info that you think is important that maybe isn't common knowledge that you'd like to share would be great as well! Thank you!!

    Do you think this is a good brokerage

    Posted: 19 Dec 2020 03:24 AM PST

    So I'm in my classes and am heavily leaning towards one brokerage I really like, but I was wondering what your all opinion was before signing up. Not going to mention who they are specifically but we are in Ohio.

    They are offering great training and classes and are very flexible.

    A weekly mentor meeting who trains on negotiating and contacts extensively. Mentor guides and reviews first 10 transactions or 12 months. Which ever comes first, and will sign off on you.

    During phase 1 with the mentor the split is 70- 30. I get 70, mentor gets 10, brokerage gets 20.

    Office fees include a lot of marketing stuff signage, cards etc. Those are $99 p/m

    After the intro mentor program is done you still pay $99 office fees but the split is whatever you want up to a $4,800 cap. So you can do 70/30, 50/50, or pay it all at the first deal. Whatever. After that I get 100% commission. Still getting confirmation that if I don't get a single sale do I still owe the $4,800 at the end of the year, said they would get back with me but they haven't had that issue before so I'm double checking that. Not that I'm worried, there's no way I won't get a single deal.

    So what do you all think? Should I sign on? Any more questions I should ask? Any help would be appreciated.

    If you could put a price tag on it, how much would the Vanderbilt Mansion be worth?

    Posted: 18 Dec 2020 04:50 PM PST

    If you could put a price tag on it, how much would the Vanderbilt mansion be worth?

    I'd imagine it would be somewhere north of $1,000,000,000

    FL Realtors: Tax Graphs

    Posted: 18 Dec 2020 06:16 PM PST

    Is there a map/info graphic for viewing varying local taxes for the greater Central Florida area? I am interested in being able to view higher and lower property tax areas (specifically city versus Special Assessments or PUDs).

    I have seen lists, that typically read alphabetically and I would like to look at areas as a map to determine more and less expensive areas for taxes. Is this a thing?

    Random thought about homeless people

    Posted: 18 Dec 2020 04:53 PM PST

    They would be really good realtors. If they can walk up to 1000+ people a day and ask for a $1.00. They can door knock and ask for listings.

    Not a realtor or seller but have a real estate-related question

    Posted: 18 Dec 2020 04:04 PM PST

    I posted this in r/bayarea a while back, but i've just discovered this subreddit and now feel i should post here to see if i can get even more input/answers than i got there.

    So I keep reading/hearing this argument around Reddit and elsewhere. The argument seems to go as follows:

    1) There are folks who are from (and who currently live) overseas (typically Chinese) who are wealthy and who've been buying homes throughout the Bay Area (and elsewhere). The terms for these folks seem to be "real estate investors" and/or "real estate speculators".

    2) They tend to outbid other prospective buyers by doing two things: A) paying in all cash, and B) paying above the asking price.

    3) They leave the homes deliberately empty as "ghost homes" only to sell them later on at a higher price hoping to turn a profit, or they hold onto them for their kid(s) who are in college to have a home to live in after they graduate.

    I've tried to do some research to see if this argument has any merit, but whatever info i've found online is murky at best. Can anyone tell me whether or not this is true and provide some evidence either way? Is there anyone here who works for a living in real estate and can confirm this for me?

    I also feel like some folks who make this argument do so with a tinge of anti-Chinese racism and sinophobia. I really hope nobody on here stoops to that level.

    Which Real Estate Express Course?

    Posted: 18 Dec 2020 02:39 PM PST

    Real Estate Express has a sale going right now and I'm thinking of just getting The Basics course in Florida for $92. With Exam Prep it's $143.

    Does anyone have experience with their courses? Is the exam prep worth it?

    Thanks!
