I just want to know how property prices can skyrocket when there is nobody buying them just a bunch of banks and people with tricks up their sleeves. It makes no sense to me at all. There are houses that were worth $200,000 8 years ago and now are selling for $1,000,000. This is especially evident here in miami. These homes arent even in nice areas, the crime rates are high and the houses are old as hell. And they have 10 million problems. Most of these homes should be demolished. No buyers yet extremely high prices? These dumbass homeowners think they will get top dollar, and are stubborn and wont sell there home for less. While these realtors sit around and encourage them. Dont you think that something here should change?!?! Do you think that real estate in the US and here and miami will plumett. Is now the time to buy a house?

Posted in Renting & Real Estate on March 21st, 2009
Daydreamer asked:

Hi, I’m interested in becomming a real estate developer. I have the funding so loans are not a problem. I am not willing to get a degree in it because I honestly feel I will not need it. Plus, I am almost done with a degree in Psychology.

I have looked online for books but cannot find one that is really helpful to me. I can take a few classes in it including General Contracting, but that is it. Finding a mentor has proven difficult because not many people are willing to share what they know.

So does anyone know of any good books or classes that I should take (be specific) so that I can get started. Please answer my question with any references you may have.

Thanks!!
I want to build houses and sell them. I am not looking into ‘flipping houses’. Plus, I will be hiring a General Contractor. Basically, it’s like I want to build my own house then sell it. Why is that difficult?

What can a real estate agent and broker require you to sign in a real estate deal?

Posted in Renting & Real Estate on March 8th, 2009
Lisa L asked:

I am in escrow on some property in which the seller and his real estate agent were not very forthcoming in their disclosure statements. Through a third party I found out some things about the property that are detriments (such as occassional flooding) but I am willing to overlook them and still purchase the property. I have released all my contingencies and we have a close date set.

My real estate agent happened to tell the seller’s real estate agent that we found out some of these things on the property – most importantly about the flooding – and now the selling real estate agent wants me to sign a bunch of documents listing out what I found out as if she had told me about them. I don’t want to do it – it took considerable effort for me to uncover these issues and I have already signed off on contingencies. I don’t think I need to also let her off the hook as if she had disclosed these things to me – she did not. Can the realtor force me to sign these?
I am asking if a real estate agent can legally force me to sign informal and misleading documents in order to progress with the purchase? The seller and I have already signed all legal documents as outlined in our legal contract.

I’m considering joining a condo conversion firm in California, but am worried about the timing and how the business might fare given recent weakening in the housing market. Intuitively I’d think if real estate prices are dropping, fewer people will be converting into condos, so it might not be a good move for me. The guy who’s trying to hire me is saying that the condo conversion biz is market independent and is a generally strengthening trend. Does anyone out there with experience in real estate want to weigh in here? Please list your credentials as well, and i’ll give lots of points to the best, etc. Thanks.
