The problem with working with 5 lenders at once is that it's super obvious to us, no you are not sophisticated enough to hide it, and most will simply devote 1/5 the time/energy to you (or you can work with 8 lenders, and be worth 1/8 the time/energy, etc), but you need folks paying attention and really helping you at this juncture.

That's where you guys have helped me fill in the gap on that knowledge you gain from just being in the game.well heres the thing - you don't have to do any work at all as a real estate agent. you could pretty much never show up to the office and that's perfectly fine, as they get to collect their franchise fee each month. now some places, you can get in for just $150 a month or even less. and if you only want to stick with them for like a year, then youd only pay like $1,750 total for the year, and just quit the office and tell them you'll come back some other time (which theyll be ok with). the amount of knowledge youll gain from playing around with their sophisticated MLS program is really cool. i really believe that becoming an agent for 18 months gave me a huge advantage, as the majority of people in Ocala are country bumpkin simpleton type of people, and the investors with money were commonly people from out of town or out of state. pick your battles and battlegrounds wisely. as far as "networking" goes, i didn't really form any relationships in particular with anyone that i didnt already have. i had a manager who was actually silly, but smart. some offices have this snobby attitude from some of the agents who think they're all that because they are the #1 in the sales office, and some are laidback and cool. our manager was a cool and laidback guy who was willing to help with anything. there was also this funny older lady who would always be on the computer playing solitaire in the afternoon whenever i happened to arrive at the office. should you decide to join an office one day, be sure to take a few minutes to scout out the place and see if its got the right kind of environment for you. id avoid the cutthroat type of offices, but in the end it doesn't matter as much as you think cuz youll mostly be at home.

Yep down payments in the millions and commission checks in the six figures I quadruple check everything.I can see scammers targeting smaller amounts more frequently as the buyers and sellers generally are not as sophisticated and not watching every transaction like a hawk.
