How much do real estate agents really make?

Posted on March 30th, 2010 in Renting & Real Estate | 2 Comments »

Omega asked:

You see shows like Million Dollar Listings where an average commission on a home is around $20k. Do they only sell a few homes a year? What does the average real estate agent make? Even if you cut that commission to $10k per home, that’s still a lot of money.

I’m just wondering if it’s so lucrative, why doesn’t everyone do it?

Is it better to use the listing real estate agent or use an agent you know to purchase a home?

Posted on March 29th, 2010 in Renting & Real Estate | 5 Comments »

generic asked:

I want to buy this bank owned property that I found. This is my first time buying a home and never used a realtor before. The home is listed for more then I want to offer buy it for, so I want to offer a lower price. I know a realtor who is really aggressive and I think he could get me the house for what I want it for. But I think there will be a few offers on this home. So would it be better if I were to just use the agent who is representing the bank and put my offer in? Would he have more power to negotiate with the bank rather then an agent not representing the bank? I’m not too sure how it works when you use a real estate agent to purchase a home that they are not listing. I know they get a 50/50 split on the commission when the home is sold. I really don’t care who I use, I just want to be able to buy the home for the price and terms I want it for.

Katie M asked:

My real-estate agent (whom also is representing the seller on this particular property) is asking us for a Proof Of Funds letter. Is this unusual? Why should we let the representative of the seller know how much money we have in the bank, as I think that would impact our leverage in negotiations because the seller and the sellers agent will know how much we could possibly afford?

I own a house adjacent to my own, which I rent out. A real estate agent recently told me I’d find it quite agreeable to have it all looked after by his office, and sent me a brochure listing all the services they provide.
I’ve read it, but I’m still not convinced that I need a real estate agent to rent out that little 3-bedroom house.
Or could someone convince me, please?
I’d love to just place it in somebody’s hands and forget about it. But I don’t want to be foolish, either.
