Failure of a real estate agent

It's been more than a year since my last blog post because I was too busy with my real estate selling because I was so busy with other matters but I'm so excited to start again blogging how to be a successful real estate agent here in the Philippines.

My topic is very timely because there are so many new graduates who are venturing into real estate selling hoping to get "huge commissions" to start their jump start to success.

There are so many real estate agents who are in the industry for so many years now and yet having a hard time getting leads / inquiries / customers to their real estate listings..

It's not only about location

Most of us says

Location is everything when buying a property whether it's residential or commercial

Here in the Philippines it's no different but I don't beleive that's there's a bad location or else there's no one living in that specific location and I think it's a matter of choice

On the Global stage it's not only about the specific location but there are dynamics that home buyers and investors look for that leads to that specific location

There are lots of data that supports that the wealthy around the world buy assets in other countries becasue not only of the prestige that is attached to a certain property location but also the country itself is developed, famous, people are more disciplined, there is rule of law, low crime rate and easy to do business.

Brokers and real estate agents in these developed countries are lucky enough to have these clients because of these positive factors that give a major boost to their listings

A perfect example is the United States of America. Whether there is a recession or not People just want to go to the US

There is this article from Reuters.com that wealthy chinese buy US properties like their just buying t-shirts online without even seeing the property they entrust millions of $USD to real estate agents in the US

Wealthy Chinese become the biggest foreign buyers in Manhattan, New York according to an article by america.aljazeera.com

Probably in the next few years when every thing is in its proper place like infrastructure etc.; wealthy foreign buyers will also take a look at the country as a possible real estate investment haven.

Summary of 10 countries racing to buy US homes

• Germany
• Sweden
• Canada
• Australia
• United Kingdom
• Italy
• France
• Hong Kong and China
• Switzerland
• United Arab Emirates

This is according to USA TODAY United Arab Emirates being the number 1
