Real Estate

There is no one best way. We either want the product or service or we don’t. There’s not a lot of time for long, engaging conversations because we have a business to run. I get tons of emails and mail that I don’t read because what’s offered is usually not new.

Hello, I am in the process of creating a realestate website, I have created the drop down boxes for the database of realestate properties, but how do I actually go about creating a database driven site like this? I am in over my head?
Oh yeah, i downloaded cold fusion, would this program be of any use?

One short program for databases is MySQL. It is for free.

A relative of mine has listed a house and unknown to him, the realtor lowered the asking price in the MLS (house is listed in REALTOR.COM) without first asking my relative. Can the realtor legally do this? If not, what should my relative do?

It depends on who has to approve the sale. If it is a short sale the only signature that matters is the banks, your relative does not even have to approve of offers.

I’m interested in getting a realtors license. I live in Ohio and was wondering where to go, how long it takes and is it extremely difficult? I’ve heard there is a lot if math involved as well, is the true? Any info is appreciated!

I would google ohio real estate school, find the one nearest you. Every state has different requirements on how long you have to go to school. There will be federal law and state law portions of the test, Where I live, i had to go to 120 hours of school. Yes there is math but it is simple math. I personally do not think the real estate exam is very hard, but i cant speak for ohio. Good Luck, Im sure you will do great.

Ways to detect real estate fees…So that it is easy for everyone to analyze about the real estate

It is easy to detect the real estate fees because it depends on the good marketing and the customer feedback about the business…We cannot predict both the things earlier and it gradually changes from time to time…

Please help me what are some of the advantages of going with Realty Company instead of house searching myself?

You aren’t hiring a realty company; you’re hiring a specific buyer’s agent. Most homes for sale are listed with a seller’s agent. The seller’s agent is working for the seller so they can’t actually advise you in any way.

Don’t get sucked in by agents who are willing to do dual agency. This means they claim to be working for both sides, so they’ll advise their seller and they’ll advise you, but they aren’t supposed to share with the seller what you say and vice versa. I don’t know any agents who are willing to do this out of fear of being sued if they slip up and share information they aren’t supposed to.

Without an exclusive buyer’s agent, you’ll have no one to help you gather data on what would be a fair price for the home you like, no one to explain the seller’s duties to you, and no one to advise you as you during the negotiating process. Above all, the seller’s agent will pocket the money meant for your buyer’s agent but won’t do a damn thing for you. Not hiring a buyer’s agent is like throwing away money.

I was browsing yahoo’s realestate website and noticed many homes that are in foreclosures. I was unable to find any contact information, other than sponsored links. I would like more information on these homes and the purchase process.

Perhaps I can refer you to a new website, www.BuySellListings.com. It provides Pre Foreclosure listings posted by homeowners. There’s no cost to view the listings, plus you can contact the seller directly.

Unlike other site, Information is always up-to-date because it requires the seller to log into their account and manually renew their ad once it expires. Only serious sellers post there.

As for the purchase process, you can ask a realtor or a foreclosure lawyer for advice. Good luck.

I’m sick of it. Just sick, you hear? Newscasters, talk show hosts, realty TV stars, video jockies, movie stars, rock stars – there isn’t a single soul in visual media today that isn’t piled with make-up in an attempt to make them look deceptively gorgeous. I’m not saying I want to see all their zits and wrinkles, but haven’t we gone too far? Why can’t there be any normal people in movies?

Oh my stars I thought I was the only one thinking that. yep, since we’re all different and the big claim to accpet the different ethnic groups and diversity then we should be seeing normal people, everyday people.

I want to get into buying and selling realestate preferably fixer upers.

First, establish your team–find a good realtor and mortgage loan officer who are experienced with investment properties. If you plan to rehab then sell the properties, I would recommend 100% financing. The interest rate is higher than if you had cash for down payment, but you’ll have more cash for rehab. I wouldn’t worry about the interest rate anyway if you plan to sell within a few months. Be sure to keep all your receipts–lenders look unfavorably on houses selling for much more than purchased for a few months ago–unless you can document costs for repairs/ improvements.

I did a walk though with a realestate agent. She discussed everything that was to be done to the house. I have three other people that were there that witnessed everything that was said. Today is the 7th and the place is still not ready. There is a toilet backed up, no smoke alarms and the place is filthy. How do I get my full deposit, the pet deposit and the first months rent back if the place is not ready, or how long do I have to wait before I can ask for my money back. I already gave my 30 day notice so I must move out of my current place by the end of the month. Please help. Thank you

Send a demand letter both by certified mail and hand delivered – they have 48 hrs to return your deposit….Include the fact that they violated the terms of the lease, thus rendering the lease null and void, and you consider the lease cancelled.

You should have demanded your money back at 8am on Nov 2, 2006. There is no reason to wait.

Start looking for a new place today – stop by the small claims court in your zip code and find out how to request a hearing. It may sound intimidating, but don’t wait – and most small claims have days of the week "specific to landlord/tenant issues".

Also, you may very well be entitled to double damages.
