      In terms of managing my database, would you recommend a free tool like HomeSwing or to invest in Top Producer?

      Hi Orlando,

      I would like to know if it is possible to embed the data from crane spotters in one’s website – is there a plug-in or script code that we can use in our WordPress site? I have info about some developments which I incorporated manually some time ago but that takes too much time and I see that Crane Spotters have all that info well structure and ready one would think to be used in one’s website…any suggestions?

      Thank you,

      -Jorge Munoz

      I have created my brand apart from my company brand. I was wondering what form of business entity should I form for my real estate career. Should I form an LLC or a DBA. Are there any other business entities that are better suitable for a realtor?

      A P.A. seems to be a popular choice among real estate agents, I am not an accountant so the best option is to consult with your accountant about which route to take. In any case, whether you form a LLC, DBA or P.A it is always best practice to form a type of legal entity that protects you and allows to deduct many your business expenses.

      Hi Orlando, Is is better for an agent to have a LLC for personal protection?

      Actually a P.A Professional Association” if you are refering to the type of entity you can have to run all you expenses and claim a higher number of deductions in your personal taxes. It might also help you in terms of “limited liability” for your business

      What is the most important reason to buy a property under a LLC?

    • #6677

      There area three main reasons:

      1. Limited liability: In case of a lawsuit, the person suing can only go after the property and not the personal assets of the owner
      2. Tax advantages: Under an LLC the owner can deduct expenses from the income generated from the property
      3. Inheritance: A legal entity never dies and a well structured LLC will in most cases avoid, defer or reduce the amount of inheritance taxes in case the owner dies.

      Remember, always consult with you tax accountant or lawyer and ask your client to do the same. We are not lawyers or accountants but we need to have the general knowledge to guide our clients to at least ask the right questions and help them ensure a successful transaction.

      You said that we should know this information:
      For example, to target high-end international clients, you have to understand their unique needs and answer the specific questions they have about financing, taxes, and the laws that apply only to them.

      Where can I get education on financing, taxes, and the laws? Or where can I read about this to educate myself on these topics?

      Thanks

      The internet can be a great source to get you started, however the best, fastest and most effective way is to ask the lawyer you refer your closing to, they also work with accountants if you don’t have one already ,and the financing questions can be answered by any banker or mortgage broker.

      It is a great idea to interview them for about 10-12 minutes and let them know that you will give them credit and put their website and information in your website where you are posting the article about the related topic, usually they are very cooperative and willing to help.

      It is also a great way to develop a professional relationship with these key connectors.

      The association of realtors also provides some classes about law and financing, call the association to see what they are offering at this moment.

      Good and important questions Michelle. We don’t need to be experts, since we are not giving tax, financial or legal advice, but we need to be able to guide our clients in the right direction an to the right group of experts.
