    I’m with aussierogue. I think it’s a lazy way to invest and also you don’t have much freedom with this type of investment.

    MGR,

    Don’t do it! I think $25K is way over the top.They are taking you for a ride. Can I ask who the company is? I want to stay away from them.

    Marky,

    Are you based in Sydney? This info is based as if you were selling a property in NSW.

    Firstly, there are different agency agreements. They are Exclusive, Open and Sole. The first 2 are the main one’s used.

    With the ‘exclusive’ this is usually 90 to 120 days. The norm is 90 days. Please note that it is up to you to how many days you are willing to give the agent to sell your property.

    With the ‘open’ agreement, as the name says, it remains open till you terminate the agreement.

    Feel free to call me on 0408-440-453 if you have further questions.

    Marty

    Hey Henry,

    I’m a bit confused! I’m looking into one of their properties and they said that locate deals and charge a buyers fee + subscription fee. They didn’t mention or disclose anything else about flipping. Should I be careful?

    Your opinion would be appreciated.

    Thanks,
    Marty

    Mad Cat,

    Check out Robert Allen’s 2 books, ‘Creating Wealth’ & ‘Nothing Down In The 90’s. This is purely real estate.

    Pumpkin,

    Not a silly question, you have to start somewhere. If you source the services of an agent to locate/find a property for you, they (agent) charges a fee for their services.

    Hope this helps.

    MGR…..this is the going rate – $4 to $5K, but try and negotiate. Everyone out there is trying to make a sale.

    Good luck with it.
