What is the difference between a real estate broker and real estate agent?

August 11th, 2010 by admin | 4 Comments | Filed in Real Estate

I was wondering what the difference was between a real estate broker and a real estate agent? How long would you have to go to school to be either one?
I pretty much got my answer to this question. Can a real estate broker act as both a broker as well as the agent? I plan on starting my own realty but want to do both jobs.

How much does a property management company charge?

August 5th, 2010 by admin | 2 Comments | Filed in Property

I’d like to buy a property in Canada and rent it out and am thinking of using a property management company to find the tennant, and deal with day to day issues.

Is it a percentage of the rent? Or is it a fixed fee? Actually is it worth using a property management company?

Thanks!
