Is there a good reason to hire a real estate agent instead of FSBO? #Justin #Thayer #Team #Thayer #Real #Estate #sales #Agent #vs #FISBO # Eugene #Oregon #Broker

Your attorney get paid if you loose you court case. Your doctor gets paid if you die. You probably have no idea you pay your insurance agent a commission. Accountants get paid even if they make costly errors. Your money manager takes a commission from you no matter how much money you loose. Appraisers take $900 from you to place the ultimate value on your home but where are they when you need to sell it. Even our close cousins the the mortgage industry get little grief about the amount of compensation you pay them. (They don't pay your application fee & appraisal if the loan fails)

 Real Estate brokers put in money, time, & risk litigation yet you pay us nothing unless there are proceeds from a sale. There is no other profession like it. 92% of Realtor's fail in under 2 years. (The Navy Seals buds school attrition rate is only 78%)

 The reason people don't get it is #1 we have more disclosure than any profession in the world. People tend to see commissions paid as money they are loosing instead of investing. The massive costs of advertising, insurance, MLS memberships & bi yearly education directly benefit the clients as an investment netting them more money. #2 Much of the public is confused on the difference between brokers & traditional salespeople. A broker has the same fiduciary responsibility as your doctor. You hire us to protect you & your money. A salesmen is hired to work against you to increase profits for the company who hires them. The only similarity is we are both paid commissions.

If you’ve got several leads waiting to turn into potential deals, you can’t wait for one to suddenly come knocking at your door. Successful real estate house flippers have one trait in common: they place an emphasis on proper planning. Once you’ve secured a deal, you must decide what kind of rehab you will perform. Will you conduct a few simple cosmetic upgrades (like these  10 rehab projects you finish in one weekend )? Or, is the home nice enough to sell after  an easy prehab ? Are there structural damages that will require you to carry out more major renovations? Will you focus on implementing environmentally friendly renovations  – also known as “greenhabbing” – so that you  qualify for certain tax benefits ? Once you’ve determined your strategy, it is important to ask yourself these specific questions before diving into the construction action: What are the current market conditions in my area? What does my ideal buyer look like? Does my marketing cam...

Are Cheap Houses A Good Deal? Team Thayer Real Estate News Eugene Oregon

Whether you are buying a car, real estate or even just a bottle of wine, people are always looking for the best possible deal. It may go without saying, but people love bargains. It may even be safe to say that people covet the real estate bargain most of all. A property listed below $50,000 may seem too good to be true. However, that is not always the case. Upon closer inspection, the property may need more work than meets the eye. While some properties are well worth their low sticker price, others may require so much work that their  value  isn’t worth the purchase. If you are on the fence as to whether or not an inexpensive property is right for you, here are some pointers to help with the decision: 1. Location:  Location  is one of the first things you need to look at when attempting to determine value. If there is no demand, a cheap property will do you no good. You should never make an opinion about a property without researching the area. Some seemingl...
