| Posted: 16 May 2021 08:25 AM PDT If a client only wants English speaking tenants for purposes of communication, a) can REALTORs filter tenants by ability to speak English or require tenants to be able to speak some English? b) can REALTORS ask and disclose current tenant languages in an occupied building? I feel like this is an obvious need for landlords but could become highly discriminating if interpreted for the worse. Could be all sorts of problems here EDIT: Here's an incomplete answer from HUD.gov which kinda helps with part a. Still uncertain on part b. https://www.equalhousing.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/2012-Immigration-Status-FAQ.pdf [link] [comments] |
| Does it make sense to invest in new appliances before putting your home on the market? Posted: 16 May 2021 09:48 AM PDT In a old house where the appliances are from 1990, is it worth it to replace the appliances or just have the person purchasing the property replace them? I don't think getting new appliances will affect the value of my home. Its pretty much original from 1966 and if I put new stainless steel appliances in it wouldn't look right since its a fixer upper. My stove is not working however and I am worried even though the purchaser may not care, the appraiser may have an issue with non working appliances. [link] [comments] |

| Success stories yearly commission Posted: 16 May 2021 08:37 AM PDT Any success stories? Was real estate full time the right choice? How's your yearly commission looking? [link] [comments] |
| Should I be taking my clients out to lunch’s/drinks/sports games etc? Posted: 15 May 2021 04:10 PM PDT I see this a lot in the real estate shows but I'm not sure if they just do that for the show or if it's something that's only expected in the multi-million dollar markets or not.

| Posted: 15 May 2021 04:08 PM PDT Detroit Metro here, I have a couple clients trying to buy (one in the 300s range, the other in the 400s), we have been placing offers above asking, appraisal guarantees, 30 to 45 day occupation, even one time waving inspection and none of them went through. Any insight from sellers and buying agents regarding what your clients are looking for? Which kind of offers are they accepting? Any terms to make the offer more attractive? how much more above asking are the offers you're receiving/placing? For buyers agents: how long is it taking you/your clients to find a place? how many offers placed before getting one through? Any insight and suggestions are greatly appreciated Thank you!!

| Question On Manufactured Homes Posted: 15 May 2021 06:29 PM PDT Hi I am a Maryland real estate agent and I have a client who wants to buy a piece of land and put a manufactured home on it. I'm having trouble figuring out how feasible it would be. I've been hearing that it is difficult to add a manufactured home to a piece of land even if the land is in a residential area. Dows anyone have any experience with this and can give me any advice on how to proceed? The client is looking in Prince George's County Maryland and Anne Arundel County Maryland. [link] [comments] |
| Common issues that cause a house not to be mortgageable? Posted: 15 May 2021 01:49 PM PDT I am a new agent and I am wondering what are some common problems with houses that cause a mortgage not be be approved? I know if a house has an unlevel front walkway and could be a tripping hazard is one, foundation problems, a leaky roof, etc. What are some other common things that homeowners over look as not needing to repair that cause a purchaser using a mortgage to not go through?

| Posted: 15 May 2021 04:22 PM PDT I have a buyer who is getting a significant gift from his parents to buy his first house. He's planning to use that gift for about half the purchase price, and he'll finance the rest. The house will be in his name. The seller of the property he wants is asking for a 60 day rent back option. We are offering on a house likely to go 15%+ over asking, so making the offer as competitive as possible is critical. Here are the options as I see them:
The benefit of the second option is that it starts the rent back sooner. My question is if anyone has been in this situation and has some experience with rates in both scenarios and what is more advantageous. Thank you in advance for any insight you can provide! [link] [comments] |
