Real Estate

Find out what area you want to live in. Then hope in your car and drive around the area. Look for signs in front of houses.

Agents are a dime a dozen. If you chose one ask for recent referrals. Also go with one that is an area specialist.

There might be some that are for sale by owner. That person is trying to save money.

If you need a loan send an email my way. My husband can answer all your loan questions.

GOOD LUCK.

I was required to use my credit card to recived their coaching and sign a form that i could not get a refond. but now after 3 mounths i know this is clearly a scam. but because of the sign form i feel helpless. what cam i do?

You typically have 60 days to dispute a credit card charge. Even though you are past that point, I would go ahead and file a dispute with the credit card company. As far as getting it back from the company, if it is really a scam the odds are the you won’t be able to even deal with them.

I am sorry for the loss, but in the future dispute any charge within 60 days if you even suspect there’s a problem.

Do I, the buyer, have to pay out of pocket for the realtors commission or is it included in the selling price? Can I place a bid on a home for sale buy a realtor without using a realtor? Any other information along these line would be useful too.

You don’t have to pay a Buyer Agent. We gat paid from the seller’s Agent. Yes, you can put a bid in without an agent but then the seller’s Agent gets the whole comm. The sellers agent owes you nothing. Your Buyer Agent owes you full fiduciary duties. They will negotiate for you and advise and protect your interests for nothing out of your pocket. Email me for a longer explanation or go to REBAC.com
Good Luck

I have other realtors in my office I can advertise for them, but being a realtor and the listings are the other realtor’s listings, I am not sure I can advertise the listings legally.

I’m not sure about the legality question, but it is against the Realtor Code of Ethics to advertise another agent’s listing without their permission.

Most agents I know will gladly give you permission to advertise it in place where they aren’t already advertising it. It’s just more exposure.

What can they find that can make them not want to find an partment for you? Is there a certain number?

I have a public notice on my credit history, for a bill with an old apartment I had. ($3,600) Could this stop me from getting a place to live?

They’re all looking for good credit history. Having a bunch of collections on your credit shows that you do not pay your bills & that you are a risk being a renter.

Risk for being late on rent or skipping months.

If you have collections, also provide the property management company or apartment complex with an explanation letter for any negative information.

if this $3,600 is something you are disputing w/ your previous landlord , explain that to your new one.

Most apartment complexes will still take ppl w/ bad credit, you may just have to put up a higher security deposit.

everyone’s credit past & current situations are different, there is no magical # to any of this.

I want to make sure someone is legit that will help me reduce the
loan on my home

Go to your state’s website and find the professional license area. Search real estate salesperson licenses. You should be able to look up the license and they will provide you status including when it will expire and what Broker holds the license.

just wondering, i know there is alot of people who wish they could invest in real estate as it is a great investment market. I wish wondering if you would invest in a company that invests in real estate for you?
So like lets say the company has all these listings of different real estate projects they are going to buy and you can pick from one. So maybe there is 100 acres they are going to buy at 100,000 dollars. you would be able to invest 1000 dollars in this property threw this company, so realisticly you would on 1 percent of the propety threw the company. then maybe in a year the company would sell the property and get 200,000 for it. you would then get back 2000 dollars. 1000 for the investment and 1000 dollars profit.
would this be something you would do to invest in real estate or you think others would do? of course it would be a legal corporation not like some side business.
I am just wondering as myself would love to invest in realestate but dont have the money.
Thanks!

You can invest in them REIT’s, its like investing in a mutual fund.

Also how many hours do you work each week.

Generally there is no salary for a real estate agent. Their income is based solely on commission.

A good agent works a minimum of 40 hours a week, but usually many more than that when business is good. You need to be available whenever your clients want you.

I have several realestate properties and would like to know the advatages or disadvantages.

Thanks for any insight.

I would definately encourage you putting your real estate holdings into a trust fund. I believe a trust fund is the same as a corporation. Either way it protects your assets. If you get into a car accident they cannot sue you for your property. It is protected. Also I believe it is part of a will which is always great, ya never know when your number is called! Its better to be protected any way possible.

Good luck to you and all the ventures that come your way!

Um, after watching what is currently happening to the countries economy I would have to guess oil would be good. The stock market has been slowly dropping along with real estate. If we were to get out of this housing slump the real estate it would be a good investment. The good thing about oil is that the price of it is rising so that means the profit that is coming out of it is quite a good pay. It does flow out of the earth does it not? Please wait for some other opinions, mine may not serve as the most accurate.

tip: i would constantly watch the current economic status for more guidance.
