But let’s say that you wanted to just take it to the point where you have the tentative track map approved and have actually sold it to a developer. How would you price that?

The price certainly seemed right and I could see the potential in the old home. Like so many who have come before me, thought I could complete all of the necessary things to rehab this home and sell it for a profit. I couldn’t have been more wrong! I knew the old home was going to need lots of structural work, cosmetic work and landscaping. I purchased the home with a construction loan, and began hiring contractors.

As a real estate agent, it may take time for you to be able to pull your act together in leading people to realize that your real estate business exists, but once you have established your purpose, your name and business’s’ reputation is there with them as long as you are.
