Book excerpt: Agents are liars! Ok, not all real estate agents are liars but, in my experience, many lie more than they tell the truth. Real estate agents have two common sayings: buyers are liars, and sellers are stupid. In this book, I will show you that it's the agents who are liars, and many are uneducated and, frankly, not very intelligent. This book is for home buyers, sellers, and investors who like to do business with honest and ethical real estate agents. Unfortunately, I've seen too many buyers and sellers lose thousands or even tens of thousands of dollars to lying and scamming agents. This book is for people frustrated by the lack of ethics in the real estate industry and the high commissions charged. It applies to anyone considering selling or buying a home in the next few years. Readers will learn how to choose an honest, ethical, experienced agent who won't rip them off.I aim to educate home buyers and sellers, so they know what lies to watch out for and how to pick the best agents. This book is for you regardless of whether you're a first-time home buyer or seller or have bought and sold many homes. This book is not for people who are happy with the status quo and don't mind being ripped off by their agent. And it's not for people who are content to stay in the dark about what's happening in the real estate industry. This book applies to any market conditions. It doesn't matter whether prices are going up or down or if demand is weak or strong. The advice I give will always be beneficial to home buyers and sellers. I hope this book successfully helps more people realize the American dream of home ownership. I also want to help honest and ethical agents be more successful and lift the real estate industry to a higher level of service. I aim to educate agents so they can provide excellent service to their clients.

Download or read book Buyers Are Liars written by Madge Walls and published by Madge Walls. This book was released on 2013-12-30 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bessie Carter, an 82 year old widow living in Upcountry Maui, can no longer manage on her own. She decides to sell her house and move into an assisted living home. She lives with her ferocious pit bull terrier, who acts like a lamb only for Bessie. Realtor Laura McDaniel, a 40-something divorcee, spends an afternoon with Bessie, getting acquainted and explaining the process. When Laura returns the next day to tie up a few loose ends, Bessie has no idea who she is or why she is there. Laura realizes that Bessie needs much more than a Realtor's help at this stage in her life. As Laura gets to know her, she understands that Bessie's memory lapses and bizarre behavior are more than "senior moments." With no family left on the island to help her, Laura becomes more and more involved in Bessie's downhill slide into Alzheimer's disease. Bessie is oddly elusive about her only daughter Elisa, who lives in New York, estranged from her mother. Her only son Tony works at a lumber mill in Oregon, but she can't understand why he never answers her letters. Laura soon learns that Tony died ten years ago. Bessie simply doesn't remember. While doing her best to help Bessie, a handsome Frenchman walks into Laura's life, so out of place on Maui, but eager to purchase a beachfront condominium. Much to her chagrin, Laura discovers that nothing about Maurice or his purchase is straightforward. Once again, Madge Walls shows us the fictionalized drama, humor, and suspense of the life she knew on Maui. Walls grew up in Honolulu and raised her children on Maui, the island she loves best and writes about with affection and authenticity.

Download or read book All Marketers are Liars written by Seth Godin and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2012-04-24 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The indispensable classic on marketing by the bestselling author of Tribes and Purple Cow. Legendary business writer Seth Godin has three essential questions for every marketer: “What’s your story?” “Will the people who need to hear this story believe it?” “Is it true?” All marketers tell stories. And if they do it right, we believe them. We believe that wine tastes better in a $20 glass than a $1 glass. We believe that an $80,000 Porsche is vastly superior to a $36,000 Volkswagen that’s virtually the same car. We believe that $225 sneakers make our feet feel better—and look cooler—than a $25 brand. And believing it makes it true. As Seth Godin has taught hundreds of thousands of marketers and students around the world, great marketers don’t talk about features or even benefits. Instead, they tell a story—a story we want to believe, whether it’s factual or not. In a world where most people have an infinite number of choices and no time to make them, every organization is a marketer, and all marketing is about telling stories. Marketers succeed when they tell us a story that fits our worldview, a story that we intuitively embrace and then share with our friends. Think of the Dyson vacuum cleaner, or Fiji water, or the iPod. But beware: If your stories are inauthentic, you cross the line from fib to fraud. Marketers fail when they are selfish and scurrilous, when they abuse the tools of their trade and make the world worse. That’s a lesson learned the hard way by telemarketers, cigarette companies, and sleazy politicians. But for the rest of us, it’s time to embrace the power of the story. As Godin writes, “Stories make it easier to understand the world. Stories are the only way we know to spread an idea. Marketers didn’t invent storytelling. They just perfected it.”
Download or read book Lying for Money written by Dan Davies and published by Scribner. This book was released on 2021-03-09 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An entertaining, deeply informative explanation of how high-level financial crimes work, written by an industry insider who’s an expert in the field. The way most white-collar crime works is by manipulating institutional psychology. That means creating something that looks as much as possible like a normal set of transactions. The drama comes later, when it all unwinds. Financial crime seems horribly complicated, but there are only so many ways you can con someone out of what’s theirs. In Lying for Money, veteran regulatory economist and market analyst Dan Davies tells the story of fraud through a genealogy of financial malfeasance, including: the Great Salad Oil swindle, the Pigeon King International fraud, the fictional British colony of Poyais in South America, the Boston Ladies’ Deposit Company, the Portuguese Banknote Affair, Theranos, and the Bre-X scam. Davies brings new insights into these schemes and shows how all frauds, current and historical, belong to one of four categories (“long firm,” counterfeiting, control fraud, and market crimes) and operate on the same basic principles. The only elements that change are the victims, the scammers, and the terminology. Davies has years of experience picking the bones out of some of the most famous frauds of the modern age. Now he reveals the big picture that emerges from their labyrinths of deceit and explains how fraud has shaped the entire development of the modern world economy.

Download or read book Real Estate Dos and Don ts written by Neil Jenman and published by . This book was released on 2022-12-18 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a book with a difference. Essentially, it is a compilation of some of the most popular articles I have written for our 'Jenman Support' website in the years 2019 and 2020.You do not have to start at page one and read to the end - although, you can if you wish. Indeed, as the author, I certainly hope you read every word. The more you read, the more you will discover how to get a better result when you enter the shark-infested real estate waters. Real estate is a dangerous place for the inexperienced. This book can be your safety net.The biggest reason that real estate consumers - whether buying, selling, or investing - rarely get the best result for themselves is because they lack experience. So, here you are, selling or buying your biggest financial asset and you are up against agents whose motives are different from your motives. You want the best price. The agents want a sale - at any price. You are the one with the money and the agents are the ones with the experience who want your money.Remember the saying: "When a person with money meets a person with experience, the person with the experience is going to get the money and the person with the money is going to get the experience." Every week, on average, almost 10,000 Australians sell a home. If they all contacted me, they would almost certainly be much better off financially. This book, therefore, is my way of "being beside you" as you sell or buy your large financial asset. I want you to use my decades of real estate experience.Ideally, it would be best if you could literally have me beside you. If you'd like that to happen, all you have to do is call 1800 1800 18 or email [email protected].
