ok so im was wondering how does a real estate agent get assigned a house to sell?i was thinking do they buy the house? or is it first come first serves
Krissy, they aren't assigned. As a Realtor you prospect all the time, and from that you gain clients that either list of sell.
The owner of the house gets a real estate agent to list a house for them, agent advertises and shows the house to prospective buyers for the owner, then the agent receives a commission on and if the house sells. Agents don't have to buy the house. Agents are kind of like salesmen they try to get people to use them to sell their homes. Also you can get a agent to find you a house and in our state that doesn't cost you a thing. The commission comes from the agent who has the house listed. They give the buying agent part of the sell agents commission. Hope I didn't confuse you.
Krissy, real estate is like any other job. The owner/seller of the home calls a real estate agent and asks the agent to list/sell their home. Some agents do buy the home they are listing.... ours did.
