Jack Seiden A subscription based real estate model

It’s possible I did a poor job of explaining this, this isn’t really a service for investors per se’ in fact I would probably in an ideal enjoy doing this more for primary home buyers, this to me is an alternative to the 2.5% commission model, you cut out the most time consuming and often in my opinion least valuable part of the job which is showing people around and opening cabinets and seeing if they are soft close or not lol (I presume in this new world there will be more open house, more showings by listing agents, possibly more services that allow buyers to show themselves houses like the Redfin does on some of its listing) because of that plus the guarantee of getting at least something for your time allows you to theoretically charge much less while still providing the important parts of the job, like you should consider this area, let’s go over this home inspection repost, here’s how we should craft an offer etc, even spending time explaining rent vs buy calculation and personal finance etc, plus the being able to be paid regardless of your advice, I’ve had countless clients who has just a myriad of bad ideas I’ve talked out of, but of course you don’t get paid for that in this commission structure.

Amirra Elgamiel Is it common for PMs to charge a tenant placement fee?
16 March 2024 | 36 replies
G'Day Amirra,Yep, pretty standard is 1 months rent.A new twist to traditional property management fee's that I like and that we implemented is a flat monthly fee (Like an insurance policy per se) and that covers no tenant placement fee, no maintenance up-charge, no lease renewal fee, no eviction up charge.Makes the fee structure "cleaner" and easier to understand as PM's usually have a lot of hidden junk fee's, etc...Thanks and much success

11 March 2024 | 7 replies
I would be careful forming a specific list per se.... things will happen that are not normal "wear and tear" that the tenant should be responsible for and if its not on the "list" you are stuck... the list will need to continue to evolve.Keeping it relatively vague keeps your option open.
