November 5, 2009 by Tucker
As those in the throws of choosing to acquire or sell a piece of property can tell you, the whole procedure can seem daunting. Many who seek the services of a professional real estate broker spend lots of sleepless nights struggling to discern who is taking advantage of them the most — the broker or the lender. The FTC information pack helps to sort it out.

The Federal Trade Commission makes available a great information pack that helps new home buyers or home sellers with some frequently asked questions about property. called “Selling Your Home – Tips for Selecting a Real Estate Professional”. The information pack focuses on the proper amount you should expect to pay for a real estate commission, the ins and outs of contracts as well as business models.
While the information pack is a bit short, with only a few pages, it does come with lots of great tips. In the portion on real estate charges, the information pack explains that six percent is the industry standard, it is not set in stone.
The information pack attempts to encourage potential customers to attempt to negotiate for a better fee, since the broker covets your business just as much as you want theirs.
You can request the information pack by visiting the FTC Web site at ftc.gov. When you are ready to buy or sell you may want to visit Properties for Sale site to get a great bargain on a new home.

Why would you be asking for a real estate agent to lower their commission to get you into a home? If you are purchasing a home the seller normally pays for the real estate commission.
The question does not make sense if you are buying a home.
If you are selling a home the commission you pay is negotiated upfront and before anyone sign a contract. Once the commission has been negotiated then the contract is signed.
Now if during the course of selling the property and unforeseen financial problem arise that needed settling, again a meeting of the minds would take place.
Depending on how smart the professionals are they should come up with a plan that would cause the transaction to close. This might be a renegotiation of the real estate commission that was expected, a change in who would now pay certain closing cost. Real estate agents kicking in a few dollars each or forfeiting a portion of the real estate commission by one or both of the real estate agents involved, adding a silent second onto the property to be recorded after the original transaction has closed.
I hope this has been of some benefit to you, good luck.

I think you have a right to stand up for yourself, but you are doing it in an ineffective manner. Don't yell, just don't tolerate either. Do your job to the best of your abilities, and when he is abusing you simply state that you wont be spoken to like that. For example if he yells at you to fetch something say in a strong but not yelling voice that you wont be spoken to like that, and then wait until he says it without yelling at you, and then do it without saying another word. If you do this without fail he will stop abusing you, or he will fire you, in which case you sue him for wrongful dismissal.
I would also tell him when someone is stealing from him. Imagine being able to do nothing for yourself and having your workers do this to you. As for what they say behind his back, we all say stuff about our bosses, this does not need to be told back to him.
Granted the pay is low, but it is a job, something hard to find at the moment. I think if you treat him with respect, demand that he treat you with respect (just do it like I said until he does), you will get on better and have a much better chance of future pay rises and a good reference. If you can find something better then take it, otherwise I think this is your best option. Good luck.

Just so you don't think I'm a weirdo, I'm in real estate. By Hawaii law, the deposit is split equally directly to each person on the lease, unless I have something in writing that says otherwise, signed by all lessees.]]>
