My Charleston South Carolina Real Estate Blog

Well,

    I was curious, in this tumultuous market laden with negative press is it a positive move for someone like myself, to take up a position as a Mortgage Banker and use the opportunity to learn all the in's and out's of the financial side of Real Estate?

  I'm quite excited by the idea. I have always been extremely curious about how things work on the lending side of this Industry. So, I was just curious what you,the consumer,might think of this idea! Are there any of you out there that have delt with and agent that was very well versed in both sides of the Real Estate transaction? If so, what are some tips you can share with me; Good-Bad and the ugly??

 Now I hope we all understand that via RESPA, I can not work my own deals(either way) It's either one or the other, most certainly not both!!

When I worked in the Food & Beverage Industry, I started out in the kitchen working as a Line Cook and working my way up the ranks in the Back of the house. I then wanted to know what it was like on the other side so I started working as a Waiter and put some time in as a Bartender as well. Eventually I worked my up to a Food & Beverage Manager position and had just about covered the whole gamet of Food & Bev aside from owning my own Restaurant. Doing all of that made me an extremely well-rounded employee and enabled me to better interact with ALL fellow employees no matter what their positions was as well as interacting with customer!

So, with all that said, I was thinking that this would be a smart move based on the same concept I used in my previous career! WHAT DO YOU THINK??
