Know About Working of Low Commission Real Estate Agents

To better understand who the low commission real estate agents are, it is necessary to know who are the real estate agents and how do they work. So, basically real estate agents are those middlemen or sometimes called the professionals who act as a link between the probable buyers and sellers of the real estate properties. For sellers of the real estate properties they find probable buyers and help them to list their properties at a platform which is run by realtors. For buyers they advice to buy best and suitable property as per their budget at a good price. For making a good deal without wasting time and advising at various levels of buying and selling real estate property, the agents charge commission. Some real estate agents charge higher commission for their fixed services while some charge nominal commission. Those who work on low commission have different working network.

The working of low commission agent

With the growth of real estate market and people turning towards investing in real estate properties, the work of realtors have further increased. When new people come and deal with real estate properties, they need assistance of experts called realtors. Thus, the role and working of realtor is important. The working of low commission agent can be explained in the following ways:

The best way to know about low commission agents working is through a platform. These platforms are the base through which agents list themselves. They even form a network to offer services to the prospective buyers and sellers. They even enter into agreement with the owners of platform.

In the next step, the sellers find the real estate agents and submit their property details. The agent then lists those properties and helps them to find buyers.

Once the buyer shortlist some of the properties and finalize with the help of agents, the agents are paid commission fixed on the value of property.

The best thing while involving real estate agents is that cost is saved. The low commission helps people to close a deal without suffering the profit part and time frame.

LETTERS FROM AN AMERICAN

August 2, 2024

Heather Cox Richardson

Aug 03, 2024

Today, Aaron C. Davis and Carol D. Leonnig of the Washington Post reported that there is reason to believe that when Trump’s 2016 campaign was running low on funds, Trump accepted a $10 million injection of cash from Egypt’s authoritarian leader Abdel Fatah al-Sisi. It is against the law to accept direct or indirect financial support from foreign nationals or foreign governments for a political campaign in the United States.

In early 2017, CIA officials told Justice Department officials that a confidential informant had told them of such a cash exchange, and those officials handed the matter off to Robert Mueller, the special counsel who was already looking at the links between the 2016 Trump campaign and Russian operatives. FBI agents noted that on September 16, Trump had met with Sisi when the Egyptian leader was at the U.N. General Assembly in New York City. 

After the meeting, Trump broke with U.S. policy to praise Sisi, calling him a “fantastic guy.” 

Trump’s campaign had been dogged with a lack of funds, and his advisers had begged him to put some of his own money into it. He refused until October 28, when he loaned the campaign $10 million.

An FBI investigation took years to get records, but Davis and Leonnig reported that in 2019 the FBI learned of a key withdrawal from an Egypt bank. In January 2017, five days before Trump took office, an organization linked to Egypt’s intelligence service asked a manager at a branch of the state-run National Bank of Egypt to “kindly withdraw” $9,998,000 in U.S. currency. The bundles of $100 bills filled two bags and weighed more than 200 pounds. 

Once in office, Trump embraced Sisi and, in a reversal of U.S. policy, invited him to be one of his first guests at the White House. “I just want to let everybody know, in case there was any doubt, that we are very much behind President al-Sissi,” Trump said. 

Mueller had gotten that far in pursuit of the connection between Trump and Sisi when he was winding down his investigation of Russian interference in the 2016 election. He handed the Egypt investigation off to the U.S. attorney’s office in Washington, D C., where it appears then–attorney general William Barr killed it. 

Today, Brian Schwartz of CNBC reported that Elon Musk and other tech executives are putting their money behind a social media ad campaign for Trump and Vance, and are creating targeted ads in swing states by collecting information about voters under false pretenses. According to Schwartz, their America PAC, or political action committee, says it helps viewers register to vote. And, indeed, the ads direct would-be voters in nonswing states to voter registration sites.

But people responding to the ad in swing states are not sent to registration sites. Instead, they are presented with “a highly detailed personal information form [and] prompted to enter their address, cellphone number and age,” handing over “priceless personal data to a political operation” that can then create ads aimed at that person’s demographic and target them personally in door-to-door campaigns. After getting the information, the site simply says, “Thank you,” without directing the viewer toward a registration site.

Forbes estimates Musk’s wealth at more than $235 billion. 

In June the Trump Organization announced a $500 million deal with Saudi real estate developer Dar Global to build a Trump International hotel in Oman. 

In January 2011, when he was director of the FBI, Robert Mueller gave a speech to the Citizens Crime Commission of New York. He explained that globalization and modern technology had changed the nature of organized crime. Rather than being regional networks with a clear structure, he said, organized crime had become international, fluid, and sophisticated and had multibillion-dollar stakes. Its operators were cross-pollinating across countries, religions, and political affiliations, sharing only their greed. They did not care about ideology; they cared about money. They would do anything for a price.

These criminals “may be former members of nation-state governments, security services, or the military,” he said. “They are capitalists and entrepreneurs. But they are also master criminals who move easily between the licit and illicit worlds. And in some cases, these organizations are as forward-leaning as Fortune 500 companies.”

In order to corner international markets, Mueller explained, these criminal enterprises "may infiltrate our businesses. They may provide logistical support to hostile foreign powers. They may try to manipulate those at the highest levels of government. Indeed, these so-called 'iron triangles' of organized criminals, corrupt government officials, and business leaders pose a significant national security threat."

In a new book called Autocracy, Inc.: The Dictators Who Want to Run the World, journalist Anne Applebaum carries that story forward into the present, examining how today’s autocrats work together to undermine democracy. She says that “the language of the democratic world, meaning rights, laws, rule of law, justice, accountability, [and] transparency…[is]  harmful to them,” especially as those are the words that their internal opposition uses. “And so they need to undermine the people who use it and, if they can, discredit it.” 

Those people, Applebaum says, “believe they are owed power, they deserve power.” When they lose elections, they “come back in a second term and say, right, this time, I'm not going to make that mistake again, and…then change their electoral system, or…change the constitution, change the judicial system, in order to make sure that they never lose.”

Almost exactly a year ago, on August 1, 2023, a grand jury in Washington, D.C., indicted former president Donald J. Trump for conspiring to defraud the United States, conspiring to disenfranchise voters, and conspiring and attempting to obstruct an official proceeding. The charges stemmed from Trump’s attempt to overturn the results of the 2020 election. A grand jury is made up of 23 ordinary citizens who weigh evidence of criminal activity and produce an indictment if 12 or more of them vote in favor. 

The grand jury indicted Trump for “conspiracy to defraud the United States by using dishonesty, fraud, and deceit to impair, obstruct, and defeat the lawful federal government function by which the results of the presidential election are collected, counted, and certified by the government”; “conspiracy to corruptly obstruct and impede the January 6 congressional proceeding at which the collected results of the presidential election are counted and certified”; and “conspiracy against the right to vote and to have one’s vote counted.” 

“Each of these conspiracies,” the indictment reads, “targeted a bedrock function of the United States federal government: the nation’s process of collecting, counting, and certifying the results of the presidential election.” “This federal government function…is foundational to the United States’ democratic process, and until 2021, had operated in a peaceful and orderly manner for more than 130 years.” 

The case of the United States of America v. Donald J. Trump was randomly assigned to Judge Tanya S. Chutkan, who was appointed by President Obama in 2014 and confirmed 95–0 in the Senate. Trump pleaded not guilty on August 3, after which his lawyers repeatedly delayed their pretrial motions until, on December 7, Trump asked the Washington, D.C., Circuit Court of Appeals to decide whether he was immune from prosecution. Chutkan had to put off her initial trial date of March 4, 2024, and said she would not reschedule until the court decided the question of Trump’s immunity. 

In February the appeals court decided he was not immune. Trump appealed to the Supreme Court, which waited until July 1, 2024, to decide that Trump enjoys broad immunity from prosecution for crimes committed as part of his official acts. Today the Washington, D.C., Circuit Court of Appeals sent the case back to Chutkan, almost exactly a year after it was first brought.

$10M cash withdrawal drove secret probe into whether Trump took money from Egypt - The Washington Post

Dubai property tax benefits

Dubai Property Tax Benefits: A Key Advantage for Investors

One of the primary reasons Dubai attracts global property investors, including expats, is its highly favorable tax environment. Understanding these tax benefits is crucial to making the most of your real estate investment in the city. Below are the key tax benefits that investors can enjoy when purchasing property in Dubai.

1. No Property Taxes

Zero Property Tax: Dubai does not impose any recurring property taxes, unlike many other countries where homeowners pay annual taxes based on the value of their property. Once you purchase a property, there are no additional yearly taxes to worry about.

Example: In cities like London or New York, property owners must pay annual property taxes, which can range from 0.5% to 3% of the property’s market value. In Dubai, this doesn’t exist, which significantly reduces the long-term cost of ownership.

2. No Capital Gains Tax

Tax-Free Profit on Sales: In Dubai, there is no capital gains tax on the profit made from selling a property. This means that if you buy a property and later sell it at a higher price, the profit is entirely yours without any tax deductions.

Benefit: Investors can take full advantage of market appreciation without being taxed on their profits, making it a highly lucrative option for those looking to flip properties or invest for capital appreciation.

3. No Income Tax on Rental Income

Tax-Free Rental Income: Investors who purchase property to rent it out benefit from the fact that Dubai does not impose any tax on rental income. Whether you own residential or commercial properties, the rental income is entirely tax-free.

Comparison: In many countries, rental income is subject to income tax, sometimes up to 30% or more. In Dubai, you retain all the income from your tenants without having to pay any taxes to the government.

4. No Inheritance Tax

Wealth Preservation: Dubai has no inheritance tax, which is an advantage for investors looking to pass on property assets to their heirs. The property will not be subject to heavy taxation upon transfer of ownership after the death of the owner.

Example: In some countries, inheritance tax rates can go as high as 40%, significantly reducing the value of an estate passed down to beneficiaries. In Dubai, heirs will receive the property without these additional financial burdens.

5. Low Transaction Costs

While there are no ongoing taxes on property, there are some one-time fees involved in purchasing a property in Dubai:

Dubai Land Department (DLD) Transfer Fee: A one-time 4% fee on the purchase price of the property.

Real Estate Agent Commission: Typically 2% of the property value.

Mortgage Registration Fee: If the purchase involves a mortgage, there is a 0.25% fee on the loan amount.

Note: These fees are standard in Dubai but still lower than the ongoing taxes in many other international real estate markets.

6. No Stamp Duty

Minimal Transactional Costs: Unlike many countries where stamp duty can add up to 7%-10% of the property value, Dubai does not have stamp duty. The one-time 4% transfer fee charged by the Dubai Land Department (DLD) replaces this, keeping transactional costs low.

7. Offshore Investment-Friendly

International Ownership: Dubai’s real estate laws allow foreigners to buy property in designated freehold areas with full ownership rights. There are no special taxes for overseas investors, making it a convenient option for expats and foreign nationals.

Benefit: Unlike many countries that impose additional taxes or restrictions on foreign ownership, Dubai’s policies make it easy for international investors to acquire, hold, and sell property with the same benefits as local investors.

Conclusion

Dubai’s tax-free environment provides significant financial advantages to property investors, whether they are purchasing for capital gains or rental income. With no property taxes, capital gains taxes, or income taxes, Dubai remains one of the most attractive destinations for global real estate investment. Additionally, the lack of inheritance tax and low transaction fees further enhances Dubai's appeal to both expat and foreign investors.

As a buyer, you're likely looking for good mortgage rates and temporary dips in home prices so you can buy low, then sell high. So what does the housing market look like right now, and what can you expect from 2024 Q4 housing market trends? 

This overview will provide a useful look into rates, trends, demand, and seasonal patterns to guide your investment decisions.

Home Prices Continue to Rise

As could be expected, housing prices continue to rise. Dips are more unusual than the steady march of increased property value.The gain rate in May was 5.9% from 6.4% in April, which indicates the price increase is slowing, but has not decreased.

Median home prices reached a reached a record high of $426,900 in June 2024, also marking 12 straight months of price increases.

It is also expected that if mortgage rates drop to a desirable level, buying will pick up, and home prices are likely to see another jump.

New Home Prices are Set Low

Interestingly, you may see reports that the median home price is dropping. This is because housing developers see which way the wind is blowing. They are offering homes at lower prices with buyer incentives, counterbalancing the steady continued rise of resale housing prices.

Forbes reports that 31% of builders reduced prices in June along with incentives to further lower new home costs. This means new homes in new neighborhoods are becoming consistently more affordable than resales in established neighborhoods.

Mortgage Rates Slowly Cool Down

Mortgage rates have been slowly dropping since the 8% peak in October 2023. The average 30-year fixed mortgage rate dipped below 7% in June and has been trending toward 6.7% as of early August 2024.

The rate of sales has decreased in all four major real estate regions in the US (Northeast, Midwest, South, West) compared to 1 year ago.

The continued drop in mortgage rates will make buying more financially desirable, which may cause market acceleration. Buyers and sellers who have been putting off home purchasing due to the high mortgage rate are more likely to rejoin the market if rates continue to drop.

The Commission Changeover

In case you haven't heard the news, the standard 6% real estate agent comission rule has been overturned. Now, agents can charge any commission they choose, buyers will be responsible for their own agent fees, and different agents or brokerage firms will develop their own unique billing policies. Be prepared to navigate this changing landscape if you hire a real estate agent going forward.

Demand for Homes Exceeds Supply

Housing inventory continues to fall short of demand. THere are consistently more buyers than sellers, and even rapid new developments have not yet balanced the scales. This matter has been exacerbated by high mortgage rates, causing homeowners to delay selling properties that currently have a better mortgage rate than they could secure today.

2024 Q4 Housing Market Trends for Home Flippers

What do these trends mean from the perspective of the home-flipping investment strategy? 

The dropping mortgage rates will allow you to spend less on interest while flipping each house.

The low housing market supply is good news for those bringing "below the bar" homes back to the market. With an overwhelming demand for homes to buy, especially in the more affordable price ranges, flipping shabby houses back into starter and family homes, you are sure to have a waiting audience of eager buyers.

The trend for newly built homes is worth considering, but likely does not pose serious competition for restored houses in established neighborhoods.

The new real estate commission rules should be considered. Be sure to hammer out the details with your agent before you sign with them, if you use a real estate agent for your house hunting. If you hunt using other means, this may not be a concern.
