New agent in need of guidance.

Hey everyone,

I just started working in real estate in the UAE, and I have zero experience.
I’m not from this industry at all, but I ended up liking it way more than I expected (because of money ofc lol).

The problem is:
the people I work with don’t teach anything.
No tips, no guidance, no way to learn how to close deals.
Everyone treats their success like it’s some secret formula.
So I can’t learn much from inside the office.

A big part of the buyers here are Russians, and I honestly don’t know how they usually find opportunities abroad or what gets their attention.
I just found a fire project, it's my first ever to work on, and I don’t want to waste it by being clueless.

So for Russians (or anyone who understands that market):

How do you normally discover real estate deals in another country?
Is it through friends, research, word of mouth, random ads, something else?
Basically, what makes you even look into a property in the first place?

I honestly want to target Russian audience because the word out there that they're the best buyers and investors in RE, but I don’t want to do it blindly and waste money. I want to understand how people think before I run ads or anything like that.

Reddit has always been helpful, so I’m hoping you guys can give me some direction again.

Wishing myself luck. I’ll probably put some money into ads soon, even though I don’t fully know what I’m doing yet.
Any advice helps.
Thanks.

North Carolina – “One to Buy; Two to Sell”

I realize I will likely have to contact a real estate attorney but also hoping to hear insights and experiences from others! I have a house in NC that I bought by myself in 2009, and paid off, in full, in 2022. I got married in 2023. My spouse and I have not lived in the house as our "marital residence". We have maintained separate residences even after we got married. (That a separate topic!). I am now selling this house. Realtors have told us that my husband has to sign the deed at time of transfer but I am not convinced since the house has not been our marital residence. The realtors like to use the phrase "one to buy; two to sell", which seems like a broad-stroke statement which is not applicable under all circumstances. And of course, the realtors don’t realize the details of my specific circumstances: I purchased and paid for the house in full prior to marriage Only my name is on the deed And most importantly, we have never lived in the house as a marit...

Making offers on houses not listed for sale.

I want to buy a home for retirement. I am looking at lots of options, mostly focusing on the locations that appeal to me. I see lots of Zillow estimates of homes that look like great deals to me. Are these estimates accurate, even though similar houses in the same area that are for sale are usually priced much higher? If so, is it realistic for me to try to make offers to owners that do not have their homes listed? Would a realtor even consider helping me do this? Or, do these values indicate that the houses listed for sale are overpriced, and I should just lowball until someone accepts? Are houses today tending to sell far below list prices, or ??? submitted by /u/chewybrian [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/RealEstate/comments/1o4mcon/making_offers_on_houses_not_listed_for_sale/
