No. There was no realtor involved in the purchase of this house. It was done by the owners.

I think most agents would kinda chuckle at your " in the game for 4 years " . You do come across as a poorly educated thug at least on here. I can't picture you walking without a little swagger , some headphones and a prepared monologue describing the state of your pimp. Not sure this is just a character you play. I mean I get that, But you are just really fucking consistent.

LOL
4 years isn`t a whole lot but its enough to figure out your strengths and weaknesses. If you want to know how BIG of a thug I am ask people here who have met me and gone for drinks. I`m just a funny average guy and come across as very trustworthy. I don`t even own a pair of headphones, I don`t take the bus.

I am a fully licensed HVAC technician, I am licensed to design heating and cooling systems in Housing, I have built homes and condos, I have a college degree, I have an architecture certificate ( you really can't do crap with it, but it was basically for the general information), I am finishing a University Business Degree in Marketing and will be applying for my MBA shortly. I have started 2 businesses, one that I closed because of how boring the nature of the business was and One that I still work in full time.

I wouldn't ever call myself uneducated or a dumbass. I just didn't grow up in your picture perfect small town suburb with your white picket fence with mommy and daddy saving their money for your post secondary education. I grew up working during the day, going to school at night with aspirations of wanting to do my own thing.

Originally posted by Sushipunk Well spotted, I missed that. Eric, are you a selling agent, or are you buying property for people?

Stu in Canada, one agent represents the seller and one agent represents the buyer in a transaction. The 5% commission is split 50/50 among the two agents.

your average house is $500 000 here so after your 50/50 split you take home $12 500 before taxes.

In this transaction I was representing the buyer, who decided to put an offer on a house for sale. So we registered the offer and the selling agent advised me that there was another offer and we will be in a multiple offer situation. I went back to my clients and went over the comparables and even broke down the price to a price per sqft in the area. The house no matter how you looked at it was not worth the money. I told them this is how much it is worth and I will not let you overpay for it. So we put in an offer with our best foot forward because we were in competition. I sat down with the sellers and their agent and broke down all the work I did and explained why we came in at this price and why we would not be willing to come up any higher. They couldn't say anything back or argue because the facts were in front of their faces. I did my homework and I did it well.

Anyways the other buyer agent comes in after me and gives them full asking price and they accept it. no shit. Now i dont blame the sellers for accepting a high offer. I blame the fuckin goof ball agent of the other buyers, who didnt even bother doing his homework and probably just found a way into bullshitting his clients into a full asking price offer.

Like I said you're better off just being a sleazebag in this industry.


and its fine I do pretty well at this job, its just bloody frustrating and I believe it should take a lot more then just 1 yr of studying to be able to get your license.

trust me this place would be a lot more fun if people started sharing things from their life again. Not every thread can be about atheism and everyone's shared belief that there is nothing. How fun does that sound?
sounds almost like a fuckin church right?

a bunch of useless ones. The only one I care about is my Real Estate MBA. Then with all my construction and sales experience I'll join up with a large international developing firm and see where things go from there.

If you can pull off squatting for 10 yrs by law the Real Estate becomes yours.

I'm not even bullshitting you.

It's 18 years in Colorado, and you have to have paid at least 7 years in Property Taxes. FUCKIN SLAVERS
