Where I can I can I find a real estate agent to sell my vacation house? I answered this question under the name of my ‘scribe’/ assistant on Quora:

Hi there,

I developed my referral screening service (yrs ago) to answer this question.

I’m a broker, but I use this method to find an agent when I sell my own properties. Representing self has pitfalls & IMO won’t yield the best ROI for you. AnibalGroupLLC_RealtyNetWorth_ 10-24-2018 7-54-05 PM

What I don’t recommend:

some ‘team’ agents – they may state they have X number of transactions, but that is for the team, not one agent. You will probably deal with different persons at each step, may be fine but not personal or optimal – just my opinion.
in-house referrals from a franchise – conflict of interest.
magazine sites, eg: Realtor/Zillow/Trulia etc or others that offer referrals with computer algorithms, not personal interaction, little to no client-specific assistance. Further, these referral companies take a large fee from agents and give agents virtually nothing for it. You’ll likely get a reduced level of excitement or care from your ‘reduced fee’ agent.
‘finance gurus’ that offer ‘screened local professionals’ – I tried to sign up as one but when they asked ‘have you taken any of our (paid for) local training classes?’ I felt they were indirectly charging me just to sign up, then again after the sales – conflict of interest.

Hence, what I provide:

Screening by an actual experienced real estate broker – me.
I create a private client portal where we share communications/ work spaces/ docs, etc in realtime – 24/7.
Starting with standardized QnA feedback from you so I’ll know more about you, your needs, your strengths/ weaknesses – sellers eg: your time frame, special needs, etc ~ buyer eg: you can/can’t fix property, funds available or pre-approved, preferred amenities, etc.
Then I look for ‘best fit’ agents/ brokers.
- I create an outline GoogleDoc area where you can follow along.
- I create a ‘long list’ so you know everyone I looked at, criteria I used, and the pluses and minuses of each agent/broker – its your ultimate decision after all !
- I personally contact the ‘short list’. I provide them w/ only general info about you, nothing private.
- I provide you details of such things as response time/ their professional credentials/ links to their online presence/ contact info.
- I share w/you the exact response I get from each screened potential agent/broker.
- Above a certain level of transaction, I travel to meet buyer/ seller & prospective agents in person! (eg: insert is Rhode Island trip)
- Once you select a potential agent/ broker you’d like to work with, I provide them a very detailed ‘ buyer (seller) dossier ‘. They will know a lot about you with an information packet so they can hit the ground running. Agents love when I give them this. I’ve done much of the hard work agents do out of the gate at the start of client interaction. They are happy to pay a percent of their fee to me for this.
I’m available as a professional for QnA. Many times you’d like to have an on-call pro that you can get a 2nd opinion from, no cost, anytime. That’s me. The agent knows there is extra accountability. They tend to exercise a higher level of care and professionalism with your case.
I use apps. Tech is not a problem, I encourage you to use it. I expect the referrals I provide will have an excellent variety of tech skills.
I support charities 🙂
Here’s the best part: I actually PAY YOU a rebate for this service. You get the screened professionals list – the agent gets a client already prepped for the journey – and you get $$’s from me.

Series: DISTANT BUYING. Covid Practices

July 22, 2020

Coronavirus may be with us for a while. Many of our practices predate the Covid outbreak & the industry has added to these. Anibal-Affiliates-RealtyNetWorth-Senior_Services_mom-dad-time-to-sell

‘STAY OUT OF MY HOUSE UNLESS I GIVE YOU PERMISSION’ – Yes sellers, you can do this!

Here are recent tools and trends:

Many if not most home tours currently are excluding ‘tire kickers’. Most “agent remarks” in the MLS now require buyers have &/or submit:
- pre-approval (proof of ability to purchase) to set a viewing appointment.
- submit a Covid disclosure w/ proof of funds prior to confirming appointment.
- bring no more than 1 agent and 2 attendees into the home.
- touch nothing upon entry/ tour/ exit
- have mask over nose & mouth during tour, gloves & shoe/foot coverings.
- open nothing, switch on/off nothing
- have inspector &/or later ‘touch’ inspection after acceptance of offer
- inspections that typically have only the inspector and a videographer present for such, not ‘anyone and everyone’ as in the past.
- buyer home tour waivers that require those viewing home attest they have “…during the last 14 days, [not] … been exposed to, diagnosed with or quarantined as a result of COVID-19 or have experienced a fever, cough, shortness of breath … [or other such symptoms] “
Offer packets will acknowledge Covid with realistic contingencies
For Buyers:
For Sellers:
- Seller Listing Agreement Addendum regarding showings

We still use these “Virtual” tours, distant purchasing, pre-screened services as we have for over a decade:

We create a private YourSpace247 portal – similar to banks, only better.
Post/ email on-market & sold comps for you.
Offer ‘we drive & video the area, you watch’.
For sellers, we offer ‘walk thru buyer tours’, for buyers as well if available and appropriate.

Especially of use for our of town buyer and sellers:

With comps we post many photos & videos as needed to discuss with you.
Live spreadsheets.
Walk thru tours with your inspector, licensed contractor, etc, with QnA during the walk about, encouraging your input.
Documents live to your portal (and/or email) for your evaluation/ sign/ return, etc.
All these types of processes are in place, thru and including closing.

An example of how this actually worked? We had a buyer from CA purchase a lakefront home here in SE MI without stepping foot in or having driven by the property.

SAMPLE WALK THRU:

example is from a home we sold.

VantageScore vs TransUnion, Equifax, and Experian models

September 30, 2019

Under the old model, most mortgage lenders use FICO credit scores because Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac require it. With this, the three major credit bureaus—TransUnion, Equifax, and Experian — your FICO score came from:

Payment history—35% recent history weighted a bit more heavily than the distant past.
Debt utilization—30% amount of debt outstanding as a percentage of the total.
Credit history—15% how long the borrower has been a ‘good’ credit user.
Recent credit searches—10%
Types of credit—10% i.e. ‘mix’

VantageScore is the main source for approving credit cards.
VantageScore uses trended data.

PLUS: Trended data gives a higher score when paying down debt vs minimum payment each month &/or debt increasing.
MINUS: Traditional high score borrowers often carry several cards with high limits, resulting in lower scores under the new system, because of potential to run up credit card debt quickly.

Anibal-Group-LLC-RealtyNetWorth-consulting-with-retiree-retired-person

~ today’s tip from your NetWorth Portfolio Broker ~

CREDIT SCORES: Not only affect your ability to GET a mortgage, it affects: all loan rates/ cost of and ability to get insurance/ job applications. I’ve seen folks pay a 10 fold+ increase on their insurance policies just by ‘letting it go back to the bank’ (and yes, bank can come after you years later)

ON DUTY / ASK ME ANYTHING

Series: SELLING – how much exposure should I be getting?

July 12, 2019

Insertion in the MLS can be good, but how its done can either work for your or against. capture[1] An optimal outcome is the goal, not plug n play all of your information to the magazine sites to do with as they will. I work for your best interest, NOT theirs.

Many offer simply the relatively passive marketing approach of using MLS like a ‘shotgun’, blast everything you have all at once and see if you hit a target. I see MLS as a tool, used as a stepping stone en-route to bringing interest directed at your and only your property, else we may be missing opportunities. How do I do this? I’m glad to show you my approach. Supporting roles by the following create a ‘reverse shotgun approach’ if you will, of all marketing pieces directing interest at, and only at, your property.

Dedicated social media page,
posting of ads,
mailings to your neighborhood and my client list,
dedicated URL page just for your property and yours alone,
YouTube,
These and other tools used correctly and at the right time have produced the type of results seen in this one example listing. Below is a glimpse of the URL page and what example days of syndication look like using a ‘formula’ to drive traffic. My approach you might call a ‘controlled exposure’.

Series: SELLING – how much activity should I be getting? How long will it take?

March 22, 2019

A buyer passively considers a move for about 6 months. Then, actively shops on average 30-45 days for a home. What does this mean? You’ll get lots of looks from that 1st group asap but they’ll never set appointments. Then, you’ll get a lot of appointments in the first few days – these are the folks that have been looking 30-45 days. After that, they will trickle in only with about 1/30th to 1/45th of the same interest as you had those first few days.

This slideshow requires JavaScript.

“Wow, I got lots of showings but no offers!” Possible reasons: You are the ‘early house’ on a 3 home tour. The best is usually the last shown.

“Wow, I had a lot of looks online, but no showings!” Read on my friend…….

How long should property be on market?
- You’re agent give you this info with the CMA report. It will differ based on season and how unique your property is. If you don’t give the agent a good amount of time to ‘develop’ the marketing, testing various approaches against each other, don’t expect their best in return.
How many ‘looks’ should I get?
- Once the listing goes out to the public, its not just looks, but ‘lingers’ that you want. The back end stats will give your marketing expert details not seen out front. The magazine sites that purchase listing databases…they’ll show so some of this, but you won’t know who looked, motive, where they initially saw the offering, or why they are looking.
When should I be getting showings?
- Online looks are a type of showing. Based on where they see your property and how/ where (online) they came to ‘look deeper’, they may or may not become physical showings. If you have a good number of looks from active marketing efforts – not just ‘lookey looks’ – you should have in person shows w/in 10% of the total marketing time being allowed (see #1).
When should I get offers?
- After 7-10 showings or 25% of total marketing time being allowed.
What to do to expedite the process?
- The more a listing MLS data is changed, the more you’ll look desperate. Carefully consider whether quick sell or highest price is of more importance – from the outset – lest those ‘days on market’ and ‘price change’ details start to scream out. Bad: rushing to market w/o preparing the staging looks all over the inside/ decorative highlights on on the porches/ decks, etc outside/ and honestly setting a price … that you would pay to buy it back from the lookers that won’t place an offer.
When to reassess:
- Depending on how highest goal: quick sell vs high price, usually reassessments are made at the intervals noted below:
  - If no showings: w/in 10% of the total marketing time being allowed. (eg: 180 days listing = 18 days)
  - If no offers: after 7-10 showings or 25% of total marketing time being allowed. (eg: 180 day listing = 45 days)
  - At each 1/3 of marketing time being allowed or every 30 days. See ‘More’ articles for ideas, but look at cleanliness, decor IN & OUT, pricing against comps. (eg: 180 day listing = 60 days)
More advertising will only hurt a listing making it stale and stigmatized if its not priced right and shows well … the first time.

MY HOUSE SOLD IN A DAY ~ IT MUST HAVE BEEN TOO CHEAP!

Seriously? One day one you had 6 months worth of lookers, 30-45 days of shoppers. If you 1. did your part to stage it, 2. the agent did their part to expose it with ‘a full deck of cards‘ on day one, and 3. you worked honestly together to nail down a price that is competitive, then this is your best expectation come to fruition.

You’ve Got Tools – a more ‘organized’ approach to NetWorth Bigger Picture

March 8, 2019

Every year things change, so we have too! We formalized ‘Plan’ to help get to ‘Develop’ & ‘Execute’. Anibal-Group-RealtyNetWorth-door-question-chess-1

Plan ~ YourVISION
Develop ~ NetWorthBasics.com
Execute ~ RealtyNetWorth.com

Below are new tools for our goal, your ‘bigger picture’.

TOOL#1 The YourVISION

tool helps you think about your bigger picture AND share it, so we serve you better. CL_ad_mug

TOOL#2 ARTICLES

see YourSpace247 portal RH sidebar for new links to our knowledge base.

TOOL#3 YourNOTEBOOK,

is an evolving tool produced from your feedback. This new link in your portal RH sidebar is a spreadsheet with tabs (shown below). We jointly track year to year information IRS now requires us to keep, as record of your representation. More importantly, I encourage you to look for items of interest and questions of usability. Having ‘factors’ in one location (a cross reference spreadsheet), and knowing YourVISION, we can work together on ‘what if’ questions. Here’s an overview. Series: ‘MORE TOOLS’ ~ Home economics, budget, mortgage, income taxes

Suggested uses:

– Permanent info for tax returns/ tax planning for future years.
– Home economics files.
– Estate planning.
– Financial planning.
– Summarize voluminous documents.
– Information for net worth.
– Information for loan application.
– Eldercare, estate, will & trust planning.

The ‘starter’ YourNOTEBOOK (link in sidebar of YourSpace portals) is shown below. It will evolve based on YourVISION & changing needs. Not shown in the ‘starter’ YourNOTEBOOK are many more spreadsheets. The best, I think, are planning/ evaluating future cash flows. For example, what will be your expense needs against various types of later year income sources. Also, evaluate income sources against each other – plan a good mix of sources. ‘READ’ and ‘topics’ are active links, ‘tab’ is unique to and active from your spreadsheet.

Series: ‘MORE TOOLS’ ~ Home economics, budget, mortgage, income taxes

March 1, 2019

SERIES: The ‘Portfolio Approach’ includes access to spreadsheets. I have thousands of spreadsheets I’ve created to assist clients…thousands. To help you organize your thoughts, there a quite a few templates that interact, to assist and give value. Some examples of these ‘multi tab spreadsheets’ would be to assist:

buyers – valuations/ closing costs/ pricing/ estimated time to market, etc.
sellers – valuation/ checklists/ comparing
investors – compare/ value/ track ROI/ tax issues
landlords – rehab costs/ ROI tracking/ management feedback/ tenant interactions
home economics – this is usually the start point for customers / clients. With this tool set, we can do what the mechanic does with a scan tool, what the doctor does with a workup, and what your insurance agent does with their annual feedback form. Lets take a quick look:

This slideshow requires JavaScript.

By the time you see these, they’ve no doubt been updated.

One great advantage for you will be that these are ‘live’ and interactive. We can edit formulas/ ‘what if’s/ and make clarifying graphical changes to your taste, in real-time, during a phone chat!

Look at the tab names on the bottom. What can you think up that I can assist with?

IN RELATED SERIES POSTS: I’ll share REAL ESTATE and ENTITY ‘frequently used tools’.

Tools have been created to help assist if you have, had, or are considering any of the below:

… income property?
… a small business or 1099 contract income?
… an entity such as S-Corp, LLC, or Partnership?
… using property as home office, land storage rental, pole barn use, attached apartment for related/unrelated, or VRBO.com style letting?
… college (or other) housing for student/ child?
… providing housing for parent?
… vacation/ seasonal property that may have mixed use?
… relocation related to work?
