Which real estate companies are best for new agents?
Q. I'm planning on getting my real estate agents license in the next few weeks. I've heard that Century 21 and some other companies have their own courses. Is it better to attend their course or just a regular local real estate school. Also what companies are good for new agents. Any advice you can give is appreciated! Thanks! Oh and I'll be getting my license in Tenessee.

A. I am a real estate agent in Australia with my own independent office. I am not sure what courses are like through franchises, however, here, the courses with regular real estate schools are very good. When you are looking to find an agency to work for, consider the following: - do they regularly pay for training for their employees? what kind of training and how frequently? - does management get regular training and upgrade their knowledge on changes in legislation etc (here we have special annual education to attend to stay in the know) - what internal systems and procedures do they have that will assist people who are just starting out? for example, a good computer software and training resources in the office for when you get… [cont.]

How do you start a real estate holding company and a real estate development company, can I combine the 2?
Q. I am 14 and when I get older I would like to start a real estate holding company LLC and a real estate development company LLC. How much money would I need to start one? With the real estate holding company do I get capital gains? Also I would like it to be publicly traded. So what is the best way to go about doing this?

A. Wow! what a great question from a 14 year old. a LLC (Limited Liability Company) is incorporated with the Attorney Generals office in the state it is established in. The best way to do that is to go to an Attorney. A holding company and a Development company may be combined into one, have different division or groups to do the different objectives, or even the same people. You can never have too much money to start a company, it's the too little that matters. Your best bet is to save as much as possible, write up a business plan, go to friends and family for investment in the company before you start out and hope to have a minimum of $50,000 to $500,000 to start your company.

Do Australian Real Estate Agents have the ability to cross reference a potential tenants previous addresses?
Q. For example, if a person listed three previous addresses with one Real Estate Agency, and the Real Estate Agency calls the previous listed Real Estate Agencies, (to check if they were a good tenant etc) can they also cross reference the listed addresses on the application? Is there like a national database or something where Real Estate Agents can see your rental living history? (Sorry if this question doesn't make much sense).

Does becoming a licensed real estate agent/broker before buying your home save you money?

I'm wondering if I will save any money by becoming a licensed real estate agent/broker (I realize I have to take the test and pass) and then purchasing the home for myself.

A. After you have met the eligibility requirements and passed the examination, you may apply for your real estate salesperson's or broker's license. You must submit your application for license to the Missouri Real Estate Commission within six months of the date of your 48-hour pre-examination course completion. If no education is required, proof of satisfactory completion of BOTH portions of the required examination must be completed within six months prior to the date the application for license is submitted to the Missouri Real Estate Commission.

Q. Even though the economy is down, I would like to get into the real estate market by becoming an agent. I would just do it as a side job. How would I go about getting my license and what are the fees involved with being a real estate agent?

I have a IRS lien filed against my Real Estate. How long do I have before the property is placed for auction?
Q. A lien was recently [July, 2007] placed by the IRS against a piece of Real Estate in New York that is owned by an Estate that I am the Executor of. How long do I have from the time the lien was placed by the IRS to the time that the IRS forces the property for sale or auction? If the property is forced for sale or auction by the IRS is there some type of redemption period that I have? The Estate does not want me to sell the Real Estate. The estate will be able to pay the IRS what it owes within three months. Do I have that much time before the property is placed to auction or sale?

A. The IRS will not always force a sale. but as executor of the estate, you are required to settle all debits before the probate court closes the estate; so unless you have cash to settle, you'll have more issues with the probate court for failure to fulfill your job as executor than the IRS. Sell If you contact the IRS and advise them you are closing out the estate and need 90 days to pay out the lien, they will gladly accept that.
