when dealing with agents, is it reasonable to ask to see a copy of the contract to see facts for yourself before you book?! AND is the booking fee normally refundable???

[jun222]

yeah you can see the contract...as for the booking fee acutally when you buy from a new launch project to book you just pay the 1st payment which is 10% usually.

I am investor and I run company offering real estate brokerage services.

I can`t speak on behalf of the other real estate agents so I will speak from my experience.

I usually can supply ordinary investor with a wast array of information that is not readily available. Saving people time and money. Deposit can be sent directly to developer, pending on the particular development arrangements.

How you know if advice offered to you is good one?

1. If Reconce handles your money (payment goes thought our account) then we are liable to provide you with the professional advice as per UK law.

2. We are interested in the repeated custom and therefore offer unbiased advice.

Sometimes Reconce can help you to pool money together with another investors, form a syndicate, hence giving your better price.

Commissions are paid to us by the developers. They save money on client acquisition (salary, marketing, etc) and these savings pay commissions. The price of apartment stays the same and in many case it can be a lower - as per above mentioned syndicate arrangement.

You can be notified of the potential `hot` developments in advance, so you can arrange finance, examine opportunity and be ready to buy.

I believe that real estate business have to evolve constantly, in order to provide best value for money to it`s clients. Therefore your feedback is very welcome.


Regards,

Alex.

Take the likes of Donald Trump, Bob Kiyosaki. They have and preach that you should have a team. A team consists of a real estate broker, a banker, an attorney.

There is a term in real estate called "Bird dogging " which is a broker who does the sniffing for you and gives you everything on a platter for a commission.

A broker is a very important part of the team, choosing one is a task no doubt. But a good broker could add a lot of value to you.

As Alex said, commissions are paid directly by the developer to the broker and that does not affect your price in any way. The developer publishes his prices for your cross reference.

The broker has the ability to form a pool of investors and buy pre launch which saves you almost 10 to 15% of the price. They are advised of pre launches and in that way you get valuable information.
