You actually believe it's worth THOUSANDS of dollars to pull a few comps, when most people can actually find the same info it they look at recent sales themselves, and you open doors to houses that in most cases the buyer has found on their own and has given you a list. Most of the time there is very little hard negotiation skills at work that's worth thousands of dollars and everyone knows this. People felt ripped off because they always could get their agents to negotiate their commissions this entire time but most agents don't advertise that, why would they? Agents are glorified door openers and paper pushers. Get real. I've done all my work with the lender myself. Tell me what you honestly believe you are doing that you're skill and expertise is earning 3% as a buyer's agent when I found the property and am already fully qualified and am prepared to get inspections and other things I want. I'm truly curious what you believe you do to earn this money.

Any advice on buying properties that need renovations??

@JimsonSmithsonian Thank you for the question. I think the most important thing when buying a Fix up property is to have a trusted contractor inspect the property to get a very good grasp of the cost. It is especially important to know the structural and functional repairs that have to be done versus the cosmetic repairs that will make it look better. Then I, as a Realtor, like to run a market report based on the finish remodel value as compared to those cost. If you are looking to flip that property I like to evaluate the property on a 15‐20% profit margin to allow for cost overruns or market changes.

@@Radiantgrouphomes understood and thank you, when it comes to finding a good contractor what metrics should I go by, other than say Google reviews. Also I live in a developing rural city with some good lots of either old farm land or forests. Any advice on developing undeveloped land? Feel free to use these in a video, and for tags post your script into chat gpt and ask it for summary tags. Should increase view count pretty easily. Nonetheless thank you.

Selecting an Title Company that will do a through search is often overlooked in the Buying Process. Thank you for your comment and a lot of People feel the same as you.

Thank you!
