Gregory if you are a commercial agent as you state then I wouldn't mess with houses.I would learn the craft of dealing with commercial tenants.The hours are much better and bigger money.

Education-I don't mean a college degree, but learn your craft as complete as you can.

Hang onto your hat for this.Joe kept meticulous records.

Generally, the judge can craft two different types of orders (1) he can order a forced sale; or (2) an order conveying title.

Check out the wonderful collection of statues all crafted from bronze, stone and concrete that adorn the wide sidewalk known as the Malecon.

I wrote this blog post almost a year ago: A well-crafted and ironclad hardship letter is probably one of the biggest components to getting a short sale approval from the bank.

I met with the owners today to inspect the properties, discuss their desires, and try and craft a deal.

You can drive all the traffic in the world but if they do not convert then its all for anything and will ultimately be a pretty expensive mistake.Your landing page needs to provide a good experience to the user with well-crafted design and layout with the right copy that will persuade and entice the user to make the final decision to convert.Refer to a company named klient boost about their awesome landing page template that you can test out.

Remember the audit is there but the big x factor is the lawsuits.E and O quotes higher rates for property management.Even if the landlord and or the tenant or BOTH are at fault they almost always blame the real estate brokerage.Sometimes it is merited and many other times it is not.So to run a property management company you have to be very meticulous with everything.Many investors are out of state so they will want turn key management (one stop shop).Rates will depend on what type of asset and the size.When you go to IREM there is different training for different classes and sizes.For example the scope and management on a 20 unit apartment building will be very different from a 200 unit complex.Generally for apartments fees are 8 to 10% for 50 units and below and 50 units and above 5 to 7 percent of gross rents.Retail can be as low as 4% management fee.Houses you will be competing with low ball agents who are having a hard time selling real estate.The problem for landlords is once the managers start closing real estate sales they could care less about the rental.This is just like many agents doing bpo's now and when sales pick up they will dump doing the reports fro 50 bucks.If you want to be serious about management do it full time.In my area for houses the most reputable companies charge about 10% plus half of first months rent for houses.It's not about what you charge but what you provide for that fee.You will get landlords trying to squeeze the management fee because they overpaid for the property.That is not your problem when taking on rental property.I don't do property management but one of my broker friends manages over 400 homes with 10 property managers for his company.He likes the residual income it provides.He also land sales off of it as a side benefit.

EE taught me to be very meticulous and has made the finance coursework quite easy.
