Real Estate

Everyone has heard this…

"Earn license in just 2 months!!!"

I have learned that anything worth having takes a lot of work and that doesn’t seem like a lot compared to taking the college courses which could be over a year in some cases. So are these schools legit? What is the difference between traditional colleges that take longer and the "fast" way?
If possible, what would be best for me? I barely graduated high school, have done some college, support myself, with a great but full time job. Now I feel it’s time to get into being an entrepreneur and I want to work fast (I want to start very young). Money is no object, I will figure out a way to make it work if it is a good investment in the long run…

Well, if you are looking to being an entrepreneur getting a real estate license is not the way. It is really easy to get the license, but you have to work for a broker, you just don’t go out on your own and start selling houses.

The schools are mostly legit, they prepare you for the test. In CA you only have to get 60% of the answers right to pass. You can pass by simply guessing.

If you are serious about being an entrepreneur you should think about getting a regular 4 year degree in business. You can’t learn the skills you will need to start and run your own business in a 1 year class.

Say a house is listed with Agent B who works for Brokerage G. If Agent B decides to quit Brokerage G and go to work for Brokerage D, does the house stay listed with Agent B or Brokerage G?

Brokerage G could be nasty and keep the listing even if sellers want to transfer it to Brokerage D, but why deal with unhappy sellers. If sellers ask for a transfer in writing, it will usually be done.

what would be the comment on property tax increase, if you were a farm, homeowner, and realty state agent. meaning what would they say to a property tax increase.

Could you please be a little more specific? What would "who" say? …. the county? and, for what reason are you referring to the property tax increasing? It would only happen if your property were to sell at a higher amount, you had it appraised for refinancing, or you did improvements that increased your property value.

I’m looking for rent to live off-campus next year, so I contacted a realty to find me a house. What do they exactly do for me? Do I still have to contact the landlord too? thanks!
If I find a house with people who are looking for an additional roommate, can the realty still help?

Property owners wishing to rent their property may hire a real estate company to act as their agent. These companies are paid by the property owner to list the property, find the tenants, show the property, check the prospective tenant’s credit history, get references, make sure the tenant is acceptable and can pay the rent and sign the rental agreement. In many cases you will pay the rent to the real estate company.

No, you don’t usually contact the landlord. One reason landlords hire real estate companies is so that the real estate company can handle all of the details. Sometimes you may be charged a small fee by the company to pull your credit and handle the documentation, sometimes not.

You can also look for available rentals in the local newspaper or online on such places as craigslist.org. You don’t necessarily need a real estate company but sometimes landlords are more comfortable having a real estate company handle the property.
Good luck!

I was just wondering how the service is at Stott Realty.

it is a private firm, thus, it is not rated.

Real wives of OC, Atlanta, NY & NJ?

Girls Next Door etc?

It depends on the show and how well its doing. For instance, Omarosa stated that she was paid something like $75k to $100k to do "Surreal Life" and it was only taped over a two week period. Some of the folks from "The Hills" reality show (if you can call it that) got paid upwards of $60K-$7K per episode.
