My fiance and I are a very young couple (23) and are house shopping at the moment. We both have good jobs, so money isn’t going to be the issue.
The issue is we are new at this. I don’t want realtors to start asking us questions we don’t know the answer to. Will they ask our credit score? Things like that. Basically, what are questions a realtor is going to ask you if you’re interested in buying a house he/she is selling?
They need to know how much you are preapproved for and how much you want to spend (you should not buy what you are preapproved for). You will not have to talk to selling agents, your agent handles that.
They may also ask questions to get an idea of what is important to you and what you are looking for. They do not need to know your credit score, just what you are preapproved for. They need a copy of that letter for any offers you might want to make.
I can’t find a home for rent in a good area that is in my price range via the usual methods…classifieds, internet searches etc…, so someone told me to check with a realtor for more information about rental properties. Is this a good idea, as I thought realtors just dealt with selling homes?? Thanks for any info!
They absolutely are involved in rentals–some may not want the hassle, but they have databases and are qualified. Normally the landlord pays their fee, but that might not be true in all cases.
im from the philippines and im planning to take an online course for real estate in the US. if im able to complete this course, would i be able to take a real estate broker licensure in the US and practice the profession there?
You do have to be a citizen of the US and a legal resident of the state in which you are living.
Real Estate is a state regulated industry. Meaning, each individual state has its own different requirements for real estate agents.
The source below is specific to Texas.

I have been a yahoo user for about 8 years. I have never had an issue with the website or it’s services until recently and have discovered there is no way to contact Yahoo! I’m hoping this will let them know that nothing happens when you click on the yahoo! realestate buttons. We are thinking of relocating for his job and would like to search home listings. It’s the only link, I’ve found, that doesn’t work. Please try to fix it. Thank you, oh and, I Yahooooooooooooo! 
Contact with Yahoo help center. They will solve your problem.
I am really wanting to learn the field of realestate and need some information due to I have no experience in this field.
i believe you just study and have to take some classes. i think you can even take the classes over the internet. they are also really short. then just take i test. it is fairly easy to become one, but its hard to be good and successful at it.
We are planning to buy our first home and are confused as to the getting approved for loan process. So we were wondering if the realtor can help us with that.
Thanks!
The Realtor can help by suggesting specific lenders or mortgage brokers. Typically, they’re ones who are professional and can get the deals through. However, the Realtor really can’t "help [you] to get approved."
Realtors like for you to be preapproved before they start working with you on finding homes. However, there’s nothing wrong with going to a Realtor and saying, "I’d like to work with you. I’m not preapproved yet. Can you suggest a couple of lenders who you know and work with that I can go to to begin the approval process?"
And especially if your situation is somewhat unusual or difficult, the Realtor may have some suggestions for lenders who’d be more willing to work with you.
Hope that helps.
I have an advertising agreement with a realtor who did not pay most of his bill and gave us knowingly false promises to pay in emails, on the phone, and shaking our hand in person. Now, we’ve sued him in court. He claims he’s filing bankruptcy, even though he promised payment one week before we filed… seems like a quick turnaround to be suddenly filing bankrupcty. The reality is, as to date, he has yet to file. What are the ethics rules for realtors dealing with the public in non-real estate transactions?
I am aware I need to file a discplinary complaint; what I’m asking is if it will stick, and why.
The same as any other relationship. Make him go to court and present BK paperwork showing your firm listed at one of th creditors. If he can’t you may get a judgment but good luck collecting.
if yes what place? and if not why? i have heard about real estates and im giving it a thought
I say yes. The Philippines is a very beautiful place. Invest in properties where tourists go. I suggest that you invest in Boracay, Baguio or Tagaytay. These places are lovely and people from every nation come to visit these places. The people are friendly, hospitalbe and able to communicate in English. I can help you find a good real estate investment in my country. Email me.
