Re: Is anyone making any money out there?
In San Diego we're busier than we've ever been. There are more buyers for these stupid foreclosures and short sales than we know what to do with. We write offers every day. The only problem is... NO ONE gets an offer accepted. It's a total pain in the butt. So no, we're not making any money right now, but it's not for lack of effort! And you go to any of these bubble blogs and they talk about how much money Realtors make. What a joke. It's never been easy. A handful of crappy agents make most of the money. In San Diego the most successful agents are former bar tenders, a high school gym teacher, and a few scary high school GRE's who look like relatives of Frankenstein (after all that plastic surgery). The most successful REO agent in town looks like he rides his skateboard to work every day. If the bankers ever met these guys they would sh... their pants! I laugh when I think how I left the law practice to provide better service to real estate buyers and sellers in San Diego. They could care less. Baaaaahhhh say the sheep.
