I know what it takes to run my branch like it was my own personal business. I guess I'm the smart one because I don't have to waste my personnel expenses for some low-life car prep who plans on stealing from me anyways. If google is in mortgages, im sure he is failing because everyone who i know who is in that line of work are getting offices shut down left and right. Yeah, I guess you could make a $5k commission one month but most of the time you won't. If you look at todays economy, you can gather that buying a home is not really the best investment. That's right. the market is going down and i bet this market will die by the next 6 months. Selling up may sound like a minimal sales practice but it contributes highly to the branch's profits. Life is about sacrifices. Sometimes I have to sacrifice a few things I loved for ERAC only because it will pay me back ten full in the long run. If only you realized the opportunity ERAC provides its employees. Oh yeah, and I do have a new car and I just bought some golf clubs. My mnager's job is next. |
One of the funniest and most ignorant posts I have ever read. Real estate is hands down the best investment one can make, especially on the West Coast. Only 2 markets lost money within the last 15 years. They were in the Cleveland and Buffalo area. Seattle is up 28% this year, 30% last year, and averages 20% the last 10 years. Hardly a bad investment. Plus don't forget about the write off. You get to write off all the interest you pay on your mortgage, any improvements you make, and any expenses accrued during those improvements. There has never been a better investment. Just ask Donald Trump. Real Estate on the West Coast has never gone down and has seen jumps as high as 50% some years. My place has increased 50k this past year. It went up 60K the year before. Bottom line is if I want to sell now I will have over 100K in my pocket. What did I do, nothing? Maybe it will slow down but you are guaranteed a solid 10% every year. Do what you do best and go and wash a rig!
