Question by Roni R: Backstabbing business partners?
I am involved in many aspects of real estate investing and due to this have different people that I work with on a regular basis. I recently made a HUGE contact (VP of a bank) and set up an appointment to talk business. I invited a partner to go with me who in turn invited a partner of his (older guy with about 30 years experience in investing) as a resource for any difficult senario that should arise. Well this “older investor” totally took over and directed the whole meeting. Did not even acknowledge my existance during the meeting. I could not squeeze a word in edgewise. He plans on following up with MY contact. I felt like he disrespected me and tried to cut me out of the deal right in front of my face. I am so angry right now. The older guy is someone that I will definately have to deal with again because of how I conduct my business so I can’t cuss him out. I need advise on what to say to this guy and how to prevent this from happening again.

I guess the moral of the story here is to never trust anyone in business. It is sad, but people in general are GREEDY.

Question by nursegoodbodyandmind: I need to get rid of my home quick. Has anyone ever done business with one of those “We Buy Houses” companies?

WE have good credit and the payments are up to date, if that matters.
I’m living in a different state than the house I want to sell. It has been on the market for almost a year. I want to purchase a new home in the state where I’m living. I’m paying the bills and putting savings in the bank. This isn’t a credit issue. This is a geography issue.
The home appraised for K over what I owe last year.
This isn’t a situation where I MUST get rid of it. I just want some of my equity back so I can get a home in the state where my hus is working.
If they low-ball me, I’ll walk away from the deal.

I would assume that you would be making a mistake going through an outfit like that.

Here are some particularly good tips:

• Don’t fall for promises like “We’ll save your credit”; “We’ll buy your house ‘as is’”; or “We’ll get you a new mortgage with low monthly payments.”

• Don’t sign away ownership of your property (sometimes called a “quit claim deed”) to anyone without the advice of lawyer you trust. “When people get behind on their loan payments, they get a bit desperate, but the answer is not putting someone else on your title,” says Oakland real-estate attorney James Hand.

• Beware of any home sale contract where you aren’t formally released from liability for your mortgage. Also, make sure you know what rights you’re giving up and that you agree to giving them up.

Question by sophieb: In Florida, how exactly does a licensed Real Estate “referral agent” conduct their business.?
I mean like what is a referral agent’s job. How do they transfer the prospective buyer to a full-time agent?
yeah David, if only it worked that way in reality.

Best answer:

Answer by David Z
licensed real estate agents pay about 1/4 of their commission to agents who refer them clients. essentially they are buying business.

so if agent A lives in Ilinois and refers a buyer moving to Florida to an agent in Florida, the Florida agent will pay Illinois agent 1/4 of his commission he earns when the buyer closes on a home in Florida. This is a nice thank you gift for sending business their way.

Start Your Own Home Based Business

Start Your Own Home Based Business

Today more people are starting home based and micro businesses than ever before. Some are even taking on the corporate giants in many areas. You must thoroughly evaluate the potential for the business you plan to operate. As you consider a business beware of scams.

Being in business for yourself means you carry the whole load. Careful planning and consideration will help increase the chances of success and in some cases prevent you from making an unwise investment or help avoid unnecessary risks.

A home based business can be either Product or Service oriented. Product-oriented businesses are usually two types: (1) selling products made by you, family members, friends, etc, (2) selling other people’s products by the order or purchasing their products for resale. Service oriented businesses offers a type of service in one or many fields.

An INTERNET HOME BASED BUSINESS once set up, is one of the simplest and easiest to run. If you are looking for ways to make money online or to expand your existing home business, starting your own eBook home based business and selling eBooks could be just what you need.

Selling eBooks on eBay is the “in” thing and is the best selling product on eBay today. A home based business where you resell eBooks gives you the opportunity to make a lot of money selling eBooks. It is easy, affordable and there are practically no expenses involved other than purchasing the eBooks.

eBook authors write eBooks in the hope that you will sell them. You can sell affiliate and other people’s products to start but most people that buy and sell eBooks are looking for something “original”, so you might want to write some of the eBooks yourself to save money and to help spread the word about you and your business.

About 70 percent of all home based businesses are in operation after two years. You can improve your odds of success by moving slowly and carefully in starting a business, and you can join the 95 percent of those who succeeded in their first year along with the 85 percent who are still in business and doing very well after three years.

Last of all, the more automated your home based business is the better it will be. A home based business is not for everyone. Seventy-eight percent of business owners stated that having more control over their lives was an important reason to start a home based business, and 90 percent said they would go into business again.
