I bought Tom’s cd and book and all there was on it was bragging and jibberish. There is no step by step proceedure to follow but he promises $30,000 sales within 90 days. How can this be if one doesn’t know how? I went to a banker and he had stated this isnt a easy proceedure for someone that doesnt understand the market. So how can Tom Butler say this? Is he scamming to make money?

liddabet asked:


From what I understand - if a buyer’s agent is showing property to a client - and the property is a short sale - there is no commission % offered by the selling agent. It’s up to the lender - right?

When does the lender decide how much commission will be paid to the the agents - and what is it based on?

When in the process does it happen?

To give you some background….

I know of a buyer’s agent who has already made an offer for his client - but has no idea how much commission he’s working for. Is this the norm with short sales? Why would a buyer’s agent get involved?

I see all these infomercials for programs like the “millionaire mindest collection” and I have not been able to figure out how they expect you to make a check off of someone else’s near foreclosure. If you know what you’re talking about, please explain the steps, thanks!

Tony asked:


They state on their cd’s that they will fund a short sale only if you are a “student ” from one of their seminars. But I hear that they try to sell you on the coaching for 20K !..Does anyone know if signing up for coaching is also required to qualify for the funding?
