I find that two of the biggest mistakes are in the manner in which you ask for the money (there is a good way and a not so good way) and not having enough knowledge on the subject and the proper info on the presentation of the deal itself.When I need to fund I deal, I am not asking for money, I am offering a legitimate and alternative opportunity for others to make money.

Nobody really knows how low they'll go but I agree with predictions of 20-25%...and I wonder what Agents are doing to make up that delta in their revenue.We diversified well in advance knowing we needed to create additional streams of income, ideally by simply focusing on what we control, the size of our roster, and more effectively monetizing all of our current transactions.
