ID What do you see as the greatest challenges to your business
2551

Buyers reading too much into the “negative” press. The “wait and see” attitudes.

2552
2553

I have been in business for 40yrs and new challenges always come up. Any professional business person in any business should expect new challenges with their business. Being informed, educated, and enthusiastic about your career will always take you forward. I really do not see any challenges in my business since I try to stay fluid and mold with any future changes. Therefore I try to learn and adapt. I do keep in contact with my clients always and show them I am not only a REALTOR but a trusted adviser and friend. They know they can come to me anytime for my help.

2554

Slow markets

2555

More large companies like Zillow coming into the buying and selling process. Further erosion of commissions.

2556
2557

Lead generation

2558
2559

The big guys such as Amazon, Redfin, etc. are getting into the Real Estate business.

2560

The influx of market disrupters who will charge less and give little service.

2561

Ours is a relationship business. The challenges coming at us from Technology, disruptors, new transaction methodology, low commission programs etc…are all just additional ways for some to try to gain clients. If I keep my relationships with clients strong, there will be little effect on my business from those others. That keeps me in control.

2569

Lots of Real Estate Agents in Bay Area!!
Also , due to social media you need to be on each and every platform for lead generation like Facebook , Twitter , Instagram , linked in etc.. and be updated with technology.
You have to also be in constantly checking out and keeping yourself updated with changes in laws of real estate and procedures.
Also

2570

AI

2571

Competition from the Zillows of the world

2574
2575

Politics and the increasing willingness of politicians to infringe upon property rights as well as their incessant drive to squabble, particularly as the next election approaches, which creates fear and uncertainty in the environment leading to buyer’s being more apprehensive.

Lead generation

2586

I think we are faced with political challenges that will exacerbate the high cost of housing causing sales to remain slow for the foreseeable future. Unless our government leaders understand that raising more taxes will only create more stress in the housing market which will drive middle class buyers into becoming the buyer of bygone days.

2587

Buyers being priced out of the market. A lack of affordable supply of homes.

2588

Redfin is a greatest challenge. Tech is good and bad for Real Estate. MLS should not share our listings to redfine or Zillow. It should stay with Realtor.com in my opinion.

2589

Too few listings which effects income, ethical behavior with other agents over- promising and prop 90 not including all 58 counties.

2590
2591

So many agents in my area, so many agents from outside my area coming and poaching clients

2594

Agents that do not have enough training.

2602
2603

Lead generation.

2604

Finding buyers. Home sales are way down in the area that I work, and the listings are piling up. We need more people to move within California, as opposed to out of state, seniors especially since I work in a senior community.

2606

(1) Part time agents. Full time agents end up doing the work for both sides. Part-time do not take classes, only sell once in awhile so there experience is limited. They also have no issues of giving away 1/2 their commissions to sellers/buyers since they really have no “skin in the game”.
(2) Full time agents who should not be in this business because of ethics, work habits etc. They often give this business a bad name.
(3) Discount houses

2607

Internet based real estate brokerages.

2608

Cut rate franchises emerging
Companies offering to remodel sellers homes prior to listing – great option I cannot compete with

Our Board selling our listing information to Zillow, Redfin, Realtor.com, etc…. and finding the listing agent information!!

2677
2678
2679

Being a small firm, often tough to compete for listings. However many of the current courses are very helpful in helping us to stand out. Sellers don’t believe small firms can offer the same exposure if when you show them that you can.

2680

Discount brokers. Too much competition.

Our industry not showing the public the value we have as not only individuals but as Realtors as a whole.

2708
2709

Discount brokers and on-line platforms designed to eliminate agents.

2710

A deterioration in service quality and professionalism as agents attempt to compete on price alone. This race to the bottom in price and quality undermines the public’s perception of the value that we bring to transactions.

2711
2712
2713

We are just getting started.

2714

The new agents are not aware the market is changing and do not know how to work it. Ethics is so important and they do not know that.

Keeping up with the younger generation of realtors and their communication techniques. learning the mindset of the new homebuyer’s.

2733

There are a lot of new and old players that create lots of noise, distractions and demean the value of agents, even some agents are guilty of disparaging the profession using huge discounts and gimmicks. Mainly it’s the vast amount of misinformation on the net which I have to market against.

2734

Lots of new agents getting in the business. Even if they all do just a couple of deals with friends and family, it dilutes the pool of possible clients.

2735
2736

Excessive MLS Listings exposure in internet to public; affecting the need of real estate agent’s professionalism. Public think that they know them all.

2747

Being able to stay on top of my education, marketing, relationship building……

2748

Increasing property values for buyers.

2749

I really look at challenges as opportunities to learn and grow. I do not beleive our industry is going out of business anytime soon. We have always had disrupters and different Real Estate models. It is not likely any of the ones we are currently facing are going to put me out of business. I thrive in any market because I am acutely aware that I do not control the markets. It is my job to be informed and help my clients be aware of all of their options when it comes to buying, selling, or investing in Real Estate.

Don’t care for Zillow or Truila because the gleem only what they want
from the MLS and don’t accurately post listing and aren’t up to date

2762
2763
2764

uncertainity in our country’s leadership.

2765
2766

Keeping up with social media/marketing. It seems the newer much younger agents have a big advantage over us older agents with their vast knowledge. Although I try to keep up and continue being educated I am not tech savvy and really struggle.

2767
2768

Misinformation. When potential buyers and sellers aren’t getting the facts.

2769

Clearly the internet real estate shops/vendors. In the up coming moving market place of “click & order” and the lack of personal interaction with the newer homeowner/buyer.

2789

lead gen

2792
2795

Uncertainty and instability brought about by Governmental change, economic fluctuation due to tariffs, instability in non-tech jobs and lack of housing in the area.
Low interest rates are not always enough to convince buyers to take that step.

2796

2802

Getting the buyers to understand the market place.

2803

Having enough time!

2806

Unethical brokers, Zillow and Redfin and Amazon.

2808

The field is very competitive; just anybody today is a real estate agent, therefore, it is very difficult to develop a trustworthy relationship with any lead. Most of the possible leads that show up at open houses already are doing business with their own agents.

2809

None! Lol

2810

New laws that continue to hinder instead of helping the housing industry.

2844

Getting clients and client loyalty.

2845

CA laws and ethics of the current slate of Real Estate Agents/Companies
C.A.R and SCCAOR promoting things like Property Management to Agents who do not know what they are doing – especially, here, in CA.
Real Estate Agent should be taught more of the laws and basics of Listing and Selling homes and how to make sure they are doing the right thing in a transaction- NOT encouraging them to go into a field where they don’t know all of the legal ramifications, etc.
This business is NOT about the almighty ‘buck’ – it’s about ‘people’, ‘ethics’, ‘detail’ and ‘much more’

2847

I am just beginning to build my real estate business (2 months in) and some of the challenges I have faced are: how to generate leads; putting together a complete database with my SOI; budgeting; proving I am qualified even though I am brand new to the business; scheduling my personal time; and creating a schedule in general

2848

visibility, getting good clients that are ready buyers/sellers.

2849

People are waiting for market to crash. So they are not buying.

2850

Getting leads, finding people who want to sell, and getting qualified buyers.

2851

On line brokerages.

2852
2854

I am a full-time agent, but business dropped after I was injured in an accident. Acquired a new agent and have spent time training them which also took time away from my own sales.

2855

Ethical agents

2856

Market predictability

2857

Voice (alexa) Zillow and the MLS are all great challenges

2859
2860

My greatest challenge has been obtaining clients/leads.

2863
2864
2865

Buyers who are not able to get a pre approved loan

2867

It can be cyclical – Sellers market and then buyers etc. I have to be able to switch gears or keep my marketing up to service both. Not just sellers. That is a bit of a challenge.
Companies create disadvantages for agents. Here are examples:
Refin…1% agents where the company takes over 1/2 the agents job and takes 1 1/2%-2% of their commissions.
Compasse Has the unethical practice “our company comes first” (over the fudicicary responsibility of the seller). They enforce that their agents post their listings internally with the company for 1 week before exposing the listing to the market. This violates their fiduciary responsibility to their sellers. (not exposing the sellers property to the entire market means less potential buyers for the seller). Also this seems to be a violation of the MLS (must list within a day or so of signing a listing). This is done to create an “advantage” to Compasse agents so that more will join is my assumption. I am not sure why they can get away with this policy.
Teachers loan programs “Lands”. Long time client is a teacher. I spent hundreds of hours helping her find a home. She found out about Lands and they told her that she had to use one of their agents to use the program. Their agent showed 1 house (that I sent her) and took my transaction. Long time client lost because of this “teacher helpful” program.
Zillow and others…Using our information from OUR MLS DATA and OUR HARD WON LISTING! to grow themselves and take over our market share. This is all on top of our own inter-competition among agents. It is a pretty brutal business when you think about it.

2869

Greatest challenge to residential real estate agents will be the ibuyers companies like Open Door, Purple Brick, Zillow. Sellers love the convenience, choose when to close, not doing repairs, not dealing with negotiations, not dealing with another agent…etc, etc. People will give up a percent or so on profit for this. Especially the convenience factor of choosing closing dates and not doing open houses or showings. This is going to hurt agents bad.

2870

Balancing work with personal life.

2871

Can’t find a right prospect

2872
2873

Finding a motivated prospect

2875

Balancing work and career

2878

I need to be more in social media.

2879

New to area… don’t know anyone here

2881
2882

Misinformation to the public. We are not doing enough to show the public why they need a REALTOR. What is the advantage.

2551
2552
2553

I remember The San Jose Real Estate Board on Fruitdale. The board was great back then and it has only involved to a better organization. I am proud to be part of this organization.

2554
2555
2556
2557
2558

Is there away we can clearly define who MLS and who is the SCCAOR and the functions for each. It’s too confusing for me to figure out who does what.

2599
2600

SCCAOR needs a better website it is not user friendly. SCCAOR also needs to fight to provide more services through MLS. Our services are limted compared to other MLS’s and we are over charged for the service.

2601
2602
2603

Offer more member benefits through included training and eductation. For the annual fee, it doesn’t feel like the value is there.

2604

SCCAOR could record the classes that are free and provide them as videos for us to watch later. I don’t have the time, and it doesn’t fit my schedule, to attend live classes, but I would be interested in watching the video at my own time and speed.

After hours support for general help would be extremely helpful. Often times I have to wait until the next business day. It would also be great if you have some PRDS forms on hand for Real Estate Agents. This year there were two instances, and when I called on a weekend – no one is available to help.

Lower your association fee, negotiate lower MLS fee since MLS is less and less impactful as they sell out the exclusiveness. The only real reason to be a member of SCCAOR is to get Supra key access.

We have a terrific video room and I truly believe it is being underutilized. We need to incorporate graphics and pertinent information into the video messages from our president and whoever else uses the media room for messaging. This might mean expanding our creative staff to accomplish which would be funds well invested in our members services.
