realtors: How Realtors Can Get Theirs Deals to the Closing Table Sooner and Without Problems. - 08/15/07 04:49 PM
Why is it so hard for Realtors to work in tandem with loan officers to ensure that the deals get to the closing table with no problem? You would think that since we are the ones holding the purse strings, Realtors would be more proactive in ensuring a smooth transaction. There is always a lot of whining and complaining about Loan Officers on the AR (much of it earned by the way), but a lot of times I think Realtors simply do not understand what it takes to get financing lined up on time and all the moving parts we have … (4 comments)

The hunt continues! A couple of weeks ago we discussed the various types of Realtors one is likely to come across. Now it is time for the loan officers to be exposed.

realtors: What Goes Around Comes Around - 05/16/07 08:37 PM
Sitting from the sidelines watching the Redfin commercial, I mean 60 minutes expose on Realtor compensation all I can do is chuckle. I have to wonder if Realtors are getting a taste of their own medicine or experiencing what loan originators have been dealing with for years. Realtors are constantly telling buyers to shop for the "best rates" with loan officers. Maybe loan officers should now start telling buyers to shop for Realtors with the lowest commission.
I am sure my opening paragraph got few hairs standing on edge, but that is not what my post is really about. It isn't about what Realtors are … (8 comments)
