Real Estate office choices
Good evening,
I just recently passed my Oregon RE license exams and I am looking for a brokerage to work with. My primary motivation for getting my RE license is to buy/ sell property for myself. Due to this I think a desk fee along with a fee per sale might be my best bet.
How does the real estate brand affect a houses marketability? For instance if an office has horrible reviews online, do you find this turns off buyers, or do they ignore the agency when it's on the listing side?
I would like to sell my own home about as soon as I start. I can go with a full service brokerage who will take 25% or I can go with something like Kelly Right with a low per transaction fee structure. In your experience aside from education, (which is clearly a bid deal) what differences should I expect in working for KW versus others like, Re/max, M Realty, or Soldera?
In looking for a real estate brokerage to work for with a focus on your own transactions, what would you be most concerned about?
Thanks!
Erik
