"Realty Pilot makes the real difference."
"I guess since I've been doing them for theae institutional investors for so long, I've created a systematic approach that works very well. Comp selection doesn't take too long because the subject is normally within an area where comps are plentiful.…"
"Wow...I must've struck a nerve! Lol! Colleen, there are MANY agents who accept reduced commissions for one reason or another. It IS collusion when competitors gather to discuss price fixing and admonishing those who will accept lower in an effort to…"
"For the life of me, I cannot understand why it's so difficult for some agents to understand the notion that you cannot dictate how someone else runs their business. I mean, really, isn't this what we argue with the Government about...sticking their…"
"That's awesome, Seth!!! Keep up the good work!!"
"OMG!!! Seth....if that works for you, then so be it! If you're an active agent, you should evaluate your business plan on a yearly basis ANYWAY! Determine what works for you and let the arrogance of others roll off of your back like water on a…"
"I completely agree, Jason. It's appalling and speaks to uphold the negative stereotypes of our profession. It's enough that the general public views real estate agents as predatory bottom feeders. We certainly do not need to degrade one another for…"
"Ha!!! I'm an opinionated Capriorn....I can't help it! Lol! I will inbox you my contact number."
"I agree that the REO market has waned. I still receive REO listings. My point is that had I not started completing BPO's, I would not have broken into that market, nor would I have been able to build the relationships that I have made to be able to…"
"Okay....so you called BPO's "distractions", but then went on to promote other "distractions"??? I'm confused. Actually, I thank God for people who turn their noses downwards towards agents who complete BPO's. Had it not been for them, I wouldn't…"
"Good for you, Sean!!! I only complete BPO's for one company....HOWEVER, I am completely appalled at all of the "name calling" and insults being hurled by Realtors. By the way, isn't this a Code of Ethics violation???? But I digress. As independent…"
"This entire post has reminded me of something that someone told me when I first entered real estate in January 2007. That's when I began completing BPO's as a source of income until I was able to actually find regular clients. I was working in the…"
"No please don't get me wrong....$30 per BPO wouldn't get me out of the bed. However, i wouldn't dare call another agent. bottom feeder or even say that they do not know their value if they accepted it."
"Yes, Patti...my BPO work pays my son's college tuition which is right around $20k per year. It's a regular 4 year college. It isn't Syracuse, but it does provide him with a really good education (I'm pretty sure that you didn't mean to appear to be…"
"Lol! Well said, Marvin! I think it all boils down to what works well for your business."
