Fundamentals in Real Estate Series Part 7 Sales Associate Personal FinancesRE/MAX Gujarat
Mishandling of personal finances is a common cause of Sales Associate failure. These are people that were good at listing, selling, marketing, and technology, but were horrible at handling their personal finances. Oftentimes we hear Sales Associates say that they cannot budget their income and expenses because their income is variable. Actually it is the other way around – it is because their income is variable that they have an absolute need to budget their income and expenses.
So the first thing to do when it comes to personal finances is to develop a budget. The only people that can afford not to have a budget are the few people that are so strict with their own personal finances that they always come up spending less than they budgeted for. As mentioned, there are very few people that fall into this category. For the rest of us, budgeting is a mandatory activity.

This process starts from the time you are introduced to the customer. To get a customer’s future business, you must deliver excellent service. Once the client has bought or sold and the transaction nears completion, you enter a critical period.
The home buying process can be one of the most exciting, but sometimes also stressful, experiences you ever go through. This may be true whether you’ve bought many homes or you’re looking to buy your first, whether you’re in the market for a new primary residence or an investment property.
Fundamentals In Real Estate Series Part 5 Working with BuyersRE/MAX Gujarat

Regardless, you are a Sales Associate who wants to build a business and the buyers you work with will be your future sellers. It is important to build a good relationship with them so they will trust you with the sale of their home in the future. Being friendly, helpful, understanding, listening to their needs and maintaining constant communication and service are the keys to success. You want to become the buyer’s Sales Associate for life.

Gold V/S Real Estate: Investment Competitors
Last Tuesday, the day of Akshaya Tritiya to be precise, one found crowds clamouring to buy a piece of the yellow metal that indisputably
has been in vogue for 5000 years. But fans of gold have diminished and are now looking at other investments (except on days when they
buy the yellow metal to appease their superstitions).
It is true that even a few decades back people used to buy gold, especially during economically uncertain times. But then there was no
other choice in terms of investment. In recent years Real Estate investments is giving gold a run for its money, literally!
The biggest common factor because of which they are comparable to each other is the investment of black money. There are very few
options available in the market for keeping black money safe, and earning a return on such investment.
Gold advocates proclaim that the metal is immune to inflation, economic or political crises. And Realtors argue that investing in property
is secure. They consider gold or any other metal to be money and are vulnerable like other currencies. They can be considered a part of
savings but not as an investment as such.
In the Gold Vs Real Estate scenario, real estate definitely has the upper edge as a potential of yielding higher returns consistently. A few
reasons are-
• Gold can be confiscated easily
• Gold liquidity doesn’t work in terms of profitability as one needs to consider handling expenses, deductions for ‘melting’ and other
expenditures
• Lack of liquidity of Real Estate makes it less volatile and this is beneficial
• Rise in Gold value coincides with paper currency devaluation and hence the appreciation of gold is actually nominal and not an
increase in the buying power as we often think
• Gold like other precious metals, is prone to manipulation by those who wish suppress its value to boost paper currency in a bid to benefit
• Real estate has further income potential in terms of rent/lease which gold doesn’t have
Ever since there was recession of 2008, Real Estate prices went south and Gold prices went north. Looking at the disparity the layman
started investing more in Gold which further
jacked up the prices. In fact most of the invest-
ment done in Gold is because of the reason of
lack of avenues of investing. One major thing
which Real Estate provides and gold doesn’t is
“yield”. Gold is the single biggest non yielding
investment in the global economy. This makes
gold the most speculated investment: as there is
no discounted cash flow!
Also if the capital appreciation is not present
then the investors have no interest in investing in
Gold. In the chart below you can see that gold has
crashed for 5 years in 1963. And hence a crash
was evident and which is exactly what we are
experiencing now.
So how to use this information to convince inves-
tors to invest in Real Estate?
* Investors have to be explained that Gold
is a speculative asset while real estate cannot be
consumed.
* Gold is a movable asset which can be stolen
* Non yielding asset, so no rent you can earn on this.
* Can’t be used for own jewellery beyond a point.
The main argument for buying gold as an investment was the capital price but now even that is as uncertain as real estate escalations.
So go out and sell more real estate!

RE/MAX STEPPING STONE, MUMBAI
“Buying a home has become difficult as prices are high” – customer speak. Do you agree with this?
If you are able to manage the financing aspect of the home purchase, then the home buyer today has got
many options to choose from whilst making his decision to buy a home making it much easier to find
their dream home.
The primary sale market is maturing wherein the supply of inventories is more than the number of buyers.
The home buyer is spoilt with fancy amenities by the builders to lure sales in new projects. This is the
phase that the Home buyer can negotiate a good deal, as is being observed. Unlike the past, the developers are giving upfront discounts
on the per sqft sale rates currently ranging anywhere between 10 to 20 %. However, the secondary sale market is where the home buyer
can really get the best deal.
Negotiations by the buyer are common on the asking price by the seller, if the home has been on the market for longer than six months
especially!
This is a buyer’s market where if you can pull off the finance, the home buying process can become a joyful event where each family
member can find adequate space in their new home.

Question: What are builders’ expectations from agents?
Working with an experienced agent can mean the difference between sitting on or moving inventory.
The National Association of Realtors’ most recent survey says that over 70% of buyers prefer to work
with an Agent. Builders have more reasons to work together than ever, and needless to say their expec-
tations are soaring from today’s agents in the market. Some of these Builders have prospered to spot
reputed realtors who possess good standing in the market and have been successful in carrying out exclusive projects to be their official
representatives to sell their products.
A Professional approach towards business and consultative approach towards client’s requirement are necessary to ensure a successful real estate
transaction. With an agent’s reputation fine-wrapped in professionalism, trustworthiness, and reliability, Client Care is Builder’s main concern.
While co-ordinating between Buyers and Builders, agents must know that communication skills, thorough real estate industry knowledge and
information on competitive developments in that area are crucial to making a sound real estate decision. A large team with well-trained real estate
agents if put on any project; can make real estate transactions just as pleasant, fun and enjoyable as it possibly can get.
A good, experienced agent with a greater exposure and strong personality knows how to handle difficult situations and can set correct
expectations of a buyer in no time even in tough negotiations. Client and Investor’s database play a vital role too in pitching the buyers
and following up consistently with them in the process.
Working cooperatively and with a protocol to follow, assures a better symbiotic relationship. Builders expect agents to not only accom-
pany buyers to showings, but to register the buyer with the builder, and follow-up. They expect agents to know the community, including
the infrastructure, roads, basic construction details and to be able to explain the builder’s product in depth. After sales service support
includes other tasks and functions which involve legal formalities, quoting prices, loan execution, payment collection or other discus-
sions influencing the contract for sale.
At RE/MAX ADVANTAGE we strive not only to meet but rather exceed Builder’s Expectations and Client’s Satisfaction.

The RE/MAX model allows you to keep 100% of the commission with the office and agent even in India.
The fundamental logic on why RE/MAX is able to attract top producing agents is that they need a certain set of fixed services which are
provided to them by the franchise offices and the regional offices.
The idea of shared responsibility and collaborative approach to doing business appeals to top producing agents as they are able to focus
on meeting more buyers and sellers on ground thus increasing their ability to do transactions.
Further, as more agents become part of franchise offices, there are more buyer and seller inquiries which lead to more transactions and
probability of generating enough business increases.
RE/MAX was started in India in 2009 and has since grown on to become India’s largest real estate franchise network. With more than
130+ franchised offices across more than 40 cities of India, RE/MAX allows one to do transactions anywhere across India and help in
scaling up the business the way you want.
The model aims to attract the top 20% agents in the market who are on ground commanding a market share of more than 80%. By attract-
ing such top performing agents and entrepreneurs and helping them work on a common platform, RE/MAX aims to become one of the top
real estate broking in India.

Brokerage Survey Ranks RE/MAX #1
DENVER, CO – RE/MAX agents continue to be the most productive real estate professionals, as reported in the 2013 REAL Trends 500, a
respected national survey that was released today. The independent ranking of the 500 largest U.S. brokerages showed that more RE/MAX
brokerages met the survey’s competitive qualifications than brokerages with any other competitor.
“It’s clear that consumers recognize who the real estate professionals are and who provides the best customer service,” said RE/MAX
CEO Margaret Kelly. “Others may talk about agent growth, but what really matters is agent performance. The REAL Trends 500 is another
demonstration that more consumers prefer to work with a RE/MAX agent.”
