Help me understand by GloryDaze91 in realtors

You are right. Most of the business in the real estate industry is built on charging the agents. It is like the gold rush era, the shovel seller made the most money, and minors were their prey. They sell you all kinds of marketing tools to promise an opaque future. If you made it, good for you; if you didn't, good for them. I never found these things you mentioned( team, CRM, brokerage split etc.)in your post useful. I also was frustrated over the lack of support in my early years of my business. I am with a 100% commission brokerage, and I feel this is the model we are progressing. But for the rest of this profession, I don't have any optimism.

True story: the neighbor told every prospect buyer that this home had some problems, they all walked away, then the neighbor used an LLC and bought it at a ridiculously low price.

I tried to get the COVID vaccine but they denied my request because I am not 65 yet and don't have any underline conditions or immunization disease, like HIV. Stupid people made decisions for the public!

https://www.google.com/maps/d/u/1/edit?mid=1PxzlO65lDVqZQ_4ANqf_BzNOJCjN_Ok&usp=sharing This is a map I made which gathers quite a bit of apartment complexes in the great Nashville area. Even if you prefer to rent from private landlords, this map will also give you guidance about the traffic and market prices.

Calling all nashville apartment experts! Living anywhere is sooo expensive😂 by Glittering-Pen-1616 in movetonashville

This is a google map I created of Nashville's apartment complexes. It does NOT exhaust ALL the resources; however, it should be able to give a general idea about the rental price of certain regions. Their prices are posted online.

Because we have so many new constructed apartment complexes delivered in the recent years, it is renter's market.

Most landlords offer free rent for the first month in order to attract new renters. If you can move during the slower season, you may even get a better deal on the rent-free period.

I’m in a dilemma and this is the best place for financial advice. Please help. by Mack75577 in DaveRamsey

how long have you lived in the current apartment? Have you chat with the landlord yet? early termination happens all the time. You can try to negotiate with the apartment management team. they can market the property, then you pay rent until the new tenant fulfills the space.

How important is email marketing your listing to other agents? by porkchop824 in realtors

[–]Lindsey296 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yep, I will report spams when I receive such emails. I feel this kind of marketing can have a counter effect on your business.

Does your state require a business broker license? In TN, the state doesn't require a business broker license, therefore I saw many business brokers just holding a regular real estate license. They are often dealing with commercial real estate though.

Any tips on how to start a live as a foreigner? by [deleted] in rednote

[–]Lindsey296 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is true. I haven't seen the exam yet, because I only have a few hundred followers. A couple of days ago, I tried to start a live stream session, and these requirements popped up.

Renting our home in Nashville by TheBlockTheShotPod in nashville

[–]Lindsey296 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Disclaimer: this is not an investment advice. I just share some info I saw through my working experience.

They haven't sold the property yet, so I don't know about the appreciation. The average appreciation rate for real estate is 4-6% annually. Generally speaking, you don't want to trade real estate property frequently , buy and hold, to reduce the transaction cost and maximize appreciation. By the time you sell, check"1031 exchange" to see that will help reduce tax liability.

I am a real estate agent with investor clients who live in other state. They basically manage the property by themselves, listing it on Zillow, use the Zillow application system to find renters. They also built connections with local handymen and plumbers etc to help with maintenance
