    Part-Time Real Estate Agents - Urban Areas

    REAL ESTATE 
    Hi RE Agents, I am curious about getting my real estate license and becoming a part-time agent. How much time does it take to close a deal on average? I am curious because it seems like the average commission is between 2-5% and in urban areas this could be great. A friend of mine does it...

    New Construction Loan and Building Process

    REAL ESTATE 
    Makes sense, is there a term for a third party inspector that can oversee that different types of construction since I will probably be using equity? I have heard of instances where the GC may use materials that are cheaper than agreed upon and where they generally cut corners...tough to know...

    New Construction Loan and Building Process

    REAL ESTATE 
    That is the big question, what sort of things would I need to put the brakes on? I am leaning towards pulling the equity out of the existing property like you said after reading about how hard it is to get a construction loan. Maybe I am mistaken, but are you saying that when you get a loan...

    How Many Products/Ideas

    IDEA MINDSET 
    Sorry, being an entrepreneur is completely new and overwhelming to me. The site has so many resources it is actually inundating. Maybe you guys forget what it was like to start out?
