Are you closing at least $133,000 worth of business every month?

With Your Choice Real Estate's new monthly cap out program you'd cap out (assuming 3% co-op) and the rest of your earnings would be 100% yours the rest of the month.

Here's another example; 300k deal, 3% = $9000. You cap out at $1000 paid in and your net check is $8000!

There are no monthly fees, no transaction fees or any other junk fees to eat away at your commissions.

A lot has been made of a recent "deal" on Groupon.com by Dream Town Realty to offer customers a $1000 rebate for doing doing business with them. The idea is not new, but the venue that the deal is being offered is. Many uneducated Realtors and consumers think that this is not legitimate or legal. Perhaps in their home states it's not, but in Illinois and here in Florida it's completely legal.

This is truly the power of the free market in action!

What do you think?

People buy houses when they're ready to settle down and tired of impermanent living arrangements, such as living with parents in log cabins made of butter. Acquire a more permanent abode with today's Groupon: for $25, you get a $1,000 cash gift at the time of closing on a house with Dream Town Realty, located on North Sedgwick, Lincoln Park, West Loop, and Lincoln Square. This Groupon requires a minimum transaction of $150,000.

A rapidly growing business with the highest percentage of Chicago Association of Realtors Top Producers in the city, Dream Town Realty matches home sellers with homebuyers during mutually beneficial exchanges of houses, condos, and residential tree houses in Chicago and the surrounding areas. Prospective buyers can browse an online database of more than 200,000 properties to quickly zero in on dwellings that are in their price range and have built-in cheetah cages. The negotiation know-how and trend-spotting savvy of Dream Town's 165 knowledgeable agents guide both buyers and sellers through turbulent, sea-monster-infested real-estate waters. Throughout the process, agents can be reached by phone or email 24/7 in case clients have urgent questions about Babe Ruth's batting average or the pronunciation of the word "pusillanimous."

Sellers must list with Dream Town by April 9, 2012, and buyers must both close the sale and redeem their Groupon by the same date to get $1,000 in cash from Dream Town's coffers. This cash gift can be used to feed wallets, but be advised—it might ruin their appetites for smaller bills.

If you’re in Florida and want this very same deal let me know and I’ll honor it.

Offer valid until 7/31/2011.

Don't we have to put 20% down?

This post is inspired both by Gene Mundt's post NO MORE RUMORS! Just the facts about downpayment requirements and this very question asked by buyers I work with often. Here is what I know about various downpayment options:

1. Conventional Financing - 5-10% downpayment; even 0% downpayment if you are a doctor, lawyer, CEO or CFO. This is a portfolio loan from a local lender.

Conventional financing for condos or investment properties is 20-30% if the property qualifies for conventional financing.

2. USDA Financing - 0% downpayment; that's right, 100% financing is available in eligible locations throughout the country. Income restrictions apply.

3. FHA - 3.5% downpayment.

4. Fannie Mae HomePath Financing - 3% downpayment.

4. VA - 0% downpayment for military families. A VA Funding Fee is incorporated into the loan.

As you can see, there are many downpayment options and we wanted to share them with you. If you are working with us, we will be sure you speak with experienced loan officers who can explain all the options you have, what credit scores, financial reserves, and debt-to-income ratios are necessary. This is a general list and there may be other downpayment options as well. That is why you really have to speak with a loan officer to find out all the facts.

Please call or text me if I can help you find a house and put you in touch with one of the experienced loan officers we know.

Well this time I mean it! See the chart below...

This graph shows both the housing affordability index (dark blue) at an all time high in the past decade and the loan rates (light blue), near an all time low. What does this mean??

It means that you can buy more house and pay less for borrowing the money than at any other point in the last 10 years! So what are you waiting for? (This also applies to rental/investment property)
