Download or read book START SELLING REAL ESTATE written by Valerie Thorne and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Whether your plan is to start selling real estate as a full-time agent, or to be a part-timer with an eye on transitioning to full time after you quit your day job, or you just want to boost your current income by staying part-time, you will be confronted with an array of choices. How can new agents figure out which agency is the right fit for their financial goals and lifestyle?Sadly, the dropout rate for new agents is well over 80 percent. The primary reason is the choices new agents make from the start. They do not understand the significant differences between the franchise chains, the boutiques (luxury and otherwise), and the small, home-based brokerages. There are pros and cons for each type of office. Realtors who do not understand these differences hop from company to company.There are also hidden fees and agendas that are not disclosed to the new agent; there are hierarchies and unspoken policies in place at every office. Not knowing about the important details that are seldom disclosed up front causes agents to change companies multiple times, especially in their first year. In doing so, they lose confidence and momentum along with their customers and their listings. The new agent who can avoid the common pitfalls will not be one of the 80 percent who fail.What the new agent needs is empowering, street-smart information and Valerie Thorne's Start Selling Real Estate offers just that. The author's goal is to provide new agents with the kind of real-world information that will enable them to make the right choices from the beginning of their careers. It will help new agents avoid time and money wasting activities. This book walks you through the types of agencies and provides you with the information that will help you decide which office is the best fit for you, based on your needs and goals. It explains the financial impact of different combinations of fees and agent/broker splits: the portion of the money that goes to you and the portion that goes to your office once a deal has closed. It will explain why your broker's agenda is to get you to buy lead-generating and marketing services you don't need, and offers tips on how to sidestep their demands.Let Valerie give you the straight-up talk so you can be street-smart in this lucrative but rough-and-tumble game called real estate. Let her empower you to get started the right way.Who should read this book?•Anybody who is on the fence about a career in real estate or wonders about the initial costs and how long the process takes•Anybody who is afraid to get started because he or she does not understand how the real estate game is played•Anybody who is in real estate school now or just signed up for classes •Anybody with a lot of questions about what to expect•Anybody who is a new agent or is about to become an agent and wants straight-up advice on how not to become one of the 80 percent that fails•Anybody who needs guidance in choosing the right office •Anybody who passed the state exam but never moved forward in real estate because of the minefield of choices and expenses •Anybody who is jumping from agency to agency, from one bad situation to the next, and needs to know how to stop the cycle•Any agent who is struggling as he or she comes to that make-or-break first-year mark when most give up and quitUse Valerie's hard-won knowledge to guide you through the process of getting a license, choosing the right agency for your goals and needs, and to help start your real estate career.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Choosing a profession begins with imagining yourself in a career: here are all the details you need to get started in the popular field of real estate—from salary expectations, regional challenges, and how to use social media to your lucrative advantage. What makes a great real estate agent? Is it just numbers? Sales volume? How do you get to the top of the market in boom times? How do you survive a soft market? What tools must you bring to the job? Is it at all like those reality shows on TV? Starting in his own backyard, Esquire writer Tom Chiarella explores the requisite skills needed to thrive in various real estate scenarios: a static buyer’s market in rural Indiana, a booming seller’s market in Seattle, and the incredibly high-end market of Chicago’s luxury high-rises. Forming a personal connection with each of his subjects, he watches them work in the front seat of their cars, at lunches, on street corners, and in the doorways of homes. What Chiarella discovers is that great real estate agents devote themselves to the job with a sense of craftsmanship. Showcasing the individual tools used to develop a successful real estate career, Becoming a Real Estate Agent profiles individuals who live a life of thrilling improvisation, action, and instinct—a life in which excellence is sometimes gauged by the ability to walk away from a commission when circumstance demands it.

Download or read book Are You Missing the Real Estate Boom written by David Lereah and published by Crown Currency. This book was released on 2005-02-22 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are You Missing the Real Estate Boom? author David Lereah, chief economist for the National Association of Realtors, asks. We are experiencing a historic wealth-building opportunity. To ensure that your don’t miss out, Lereah provides the tools, information, and analysis you need to become a savvy real estate investor. And he shows how to integrate real estate into your overall investment strategies and financial planning goals. Among the information you’ll find in the book: How to become a master at dealing with real estate agents, brokers, and lenders. Which home improvements will result in the greatest long-term gains. How to identify the vacation homes and regions that will increase the most in value. How to finance a first-time home—with or without a big down payment. Why will the real estate boom continue into the next decade? Low interest rates are part of the story. Although mortgage rates have notched up slightly over the last year, they still remain historically very low. Technological advances from online real estate listings to automated underwriting to an explosion of financing options have reduced home ownership costs and simplified the process of buying and selling. Continued high demand from baby-boomers buying larger homes, second homes, and retirement homes, and a new wave of immigrants and “echo” boomers buying first homes, ensure that the boom will continue into the next decade. The long-term fundamentals for housing remain strong into the foreseeable future, claims Lereah. Far from a real estate “bubble,” what we are experiencing today is a phenomenon that takes place only once every other generation: a long-term real estate market expansion. Isn’t it time you started taking advantage of it today? Are you missing the real estate boom? Can you increase your wealth from it? For most people—including current homeowners—the answer is a resounding yes. But it’s not too late to increase your stake in the greatest real estate boom of our generation. Whether you are a first-time buyer or already own your home, Are You Missing the Real Estate Boom? will show you how you can dramatically increase your overall wealth. Author David Lereah, chief economist for the National Association of Realtors, shows why the real estate market is poised to climb higher over the next decade—and explains what you can do to profit from it. Lereah calls today’s market a “once-in-every-other generation opportunity.” Today's boom is not just driven by low interest rates—there are a host of demographic and economic reasons why real estate will continue to outpace other investments, from the growing needs of the baby-boomer generation and the rise of the “echo” boomer generation to the new ways real estate is marketed and sold. Are you a first-time buyer? A current homeowner considering whether or not to trade up? There has never been a better time to do so, Lereah convincingly claims. In Are You Missing the Real Estate Boom?, Lereah explains what to look for when you’re buying a home; which improvements add the most value to your current home; what to consider when purchasing rental properties; how to evaluate real estate investment trusts (or REITs); and the pros and cons of second homes. Full of detailed information on how to work with a real estate agent and a mortgage lender, how to analyze local markets and regional fluctuations, and how to best finance your investment, Are You Missing the Real Estate Boom? offers readers the seasoned advice they need to invest with confidence and reap outsized rewards.
