HuffPost: Realtors Are Like Male Gigolos...And It's Kinda Sorta Very True!!

"WORK ALL DAY...WORK IT ALL NIGHT" is right! This article on Huffington Post about male sex workers compares real estate agents to gigolos!....and it's kinda sorta very true!!  
Porn mogul Michael Lucas, founder of gay porn company Lucas Entertainment, said that perhaps the "biggest challenge facing escorts is the 24/7 nature of the job."

"Most escorts become slaves of their work. They have no private life," said Lucas, who worked as an escort in Europe in his early 20s. "They have their phone next to their ears constantly, and if it rings, they think, 'If I don't pick up, I'll lose $300,' so they stand up and skip dinner with their friends.”

Psychologist Jeffrey Parsons, a distinguished professor at Hunter College who has conducted research into Internet-based male sex workers, agreed that “riding high on a load of cash” can be a “very addictive” experience; however, he noted that people working in other industries sometimes demonstrate similar behaviors. “Realtors, for instance, may act that way,” he said. “You may see it in any industry where workers are commission-based.”

Like It or Not, What They're Saying About SF is True...Prices & Rents Soar in Past Decade! 

3/20/2014

0 Comments

 
Property Shark did some investigatin' and found that what they're saying about SF is true. Prices and rents be soaring! 
They looked at every home that was sold in the years 2003 and 2013, then compared the median sale prices, adjusting the 2003 prices for inflation.

What they found from comparing the more than 6,000 transactions completed in San Francisco in 2003, and the 8,000 done in 2013, was that prices are indeed on the rise in most parts of the city.  


"It's a very hot, hot market, and this really underscores everything else everyone is talking about in San Francisco," Jorisch said. "Whether it's the rental market or sales market, there's not much available in San Francisco, and if you're intending to live there, it's costly. It's the best example of supply and demand out there."

Real Estate talk show hosts Cliff Perotti & Lisa Perotti  had me on their program The Property Beat...and boy what fun! These 2 grilled me about what's happening in this outrageous SF market, how I started videoblogging and more!  

Tune into the show to find out my answers to:

1.   What are the challenges you see for a first time home buyer in SF today?

2.   What do you think about the market today vs. last year… is it better, flat or not as good?

3.  what advice do you give a buyer who’s writing an offer in a multiple offer situation?

4.   So, is your notoriety helping your clients? Or is it helping you get clients?

5.   We’re seeing some agents out there that like to price a property on the low side, in an effort to generate overbid frenzy. Do you recommend this strategy for a seller today?

6.   What are the top three things you think a seller can do to maximize the selling price of their home?

Money Under 30 has a great article for people looking to jump on the real estate band wagon. Good luck!! 

If you’ve been considering a new career or starting a side hustle to earn extra money, perhaps you’ve thought about becoming a real estate agent.

Being a Realtor is great if you like houses and enjoy working with people, but it’s not always the dream job some imagine it to be. It’s a common misconception that real estate agents earn a ton of money for doing practically nothing.

Selling real estate is more work that you might imagine and, although there are some very successful real estate agents, there are many who struggle just to make ends meet.

From somebody in the business, here’s what it takes to become a real estate agent — and what you should consider before starting down the path to selling homes.



Do you have the time and cash to get licensed?

Where will you work?

Can you afford the start-up expenses?

How are your boundaries?

Okay, so how much can I earn as a real estate agent?

Can I really sell real estate part-time?

Real Lawsuit in Japan! Real Estate Agents Abscond After They Seduce Buyers into Purchasing Homes 40% Over Market Value!

3/2/2014

0 Comments

 
I've heard of buyer's remorse but this is twisted! 2 men & 10 women claim their real estate agents practically seduced them into buying property. Wow, that's a new excuse! They're sayin' they were scammed into thinking they might get married. Honestly folks, matrimony had nothing to do with signing on the dotted line for that house. They made a mistake. Plain and simple. And now they are trying do say their realtor was nothing more than a gigolo! LOL! Jilted Buyers! 
A GROUP OF singletons in Japan who claim they were tricked into buying apartments by real estate agents feigning a romantic interest in them launched legal action this week....Once contracts were signed and sealed, the romance disappeared and the estate agent skipped out of the relationship, leaving the new homeowners with the keys to a new front door but not to anyone else’s heart...One victim was persuaded to buy three properties
