chilask asked:


I intend to run my own real estate investment company and would like the following questions answered.

After some analysis i realized that after rehabing the property and you decide to rent, 90% of the time the rental doesnt cover the mortagage. How long do you have to carry the negative loss assuming you have 10 properties at one time ?

How do relocation real estate buying programs work?

Alyse asked:


So we’re interested in buying this house. However, there’s an agreement by the seller with a relocation real estate company, to buy the house from them if they can’t sell it after a period of time. We found out we made an offer that is lower than the relocation company. So are we working with the seller or the relocation company? And is this not worth it? Seems the relocation company did not incorporate the expected decline in home prices. It needs a lot of upgrades and needs some repairs too — the reason our offer was also agressive. Any thoughts? Advice? thanks!

How does the real estate agent get paid when they’re helping someone house hunt?

Sweet Box asked:


I wasn’t sure how to word the question but I was just wondering something.

We are moving in November or even sooner and we are wanting to pay cash for a house. We are on a limited budget but I know how important a real estate agent is in our search for our perfect home. My question is, do we pay the agent separately from purchasing the house? Is the agent’s fees included in the price? Or what?

Thanks.
