Charts: Top-Producing Agent in the U.S. Sold 1,268 Homes Last Year
Chart via Realtrends.com
Real Trends, in collaboration with The Wall Street Journal, has recently released 2010's The Thousand, a list of the top-producing real estate agents in the country broken down into four groups of 250 (sales professionals by transactions sides, sales professionals by sales volume, real estate teams by transaction sides, and real estate teams by sales volume). We're most interested in the first category, of course—in plain-speak, how many homes the top real estate agents sold, regardless of whether they represented the buyer or the seller. Hats off to Mike Phillips, of Century 21 All-Pro in Kansas City, Mo., for earning the top spot with 1,268 home sales. Time caught up with third runner-up Jared Jones, a 32-year-old Vegas-based agent who sold 931 homes last year. Distressed properties in the area accounted for most of his business, he explained. "There are a lot of sales of bank-owned properties. And there’s a large pre-foreclosure market—people who need to sell their homes to avoid foreclosure.”

The Secret To Firing Your <b>Real Estate</b> Agent - Fire Your <b>Real</b> <b>...</b>
nuts?
Are you sick of them but don't know how you to fire them?
As a professional real estate broker, I work with a fair number of
clients that have at some point been working with a real estate agent
or REALTOR that was just horrible. They call and try find out
information, but never get get called back.
One commented to me that he fired his agent after "I had told her
exactly what I what I was looking for, and what three things my house
needed to have. She called me with a house to see so I took part of the
day off work and drove an hour up to see the house and it was all
wrong!"
Do you feel that way and want to know how to fire your real estate
agent?
The answer is incredibly simple! In most cases you only need to
call or email tell them and tell them that you no longer want to work
with them. Be honest and direct.
This is not the time to feel sympathetic. If they were doing a
bad job, then you should fire your real estate agent!
What if you signed a buyers agency agreement?
If you signed a buyers agency agreement with your real estate agent or
Realtor, then you need to make sure that they will release you from
that contract. Here is the secret!
Sometimes agents get greedy and won't want to let you out of the
buyers agency agreement that you signed. Hit them with their
failure to act appropriately on their behalf.
Most states have an agency law that states that your agent has to do
showing you the wrong houses, then they weren't upholding their agency
duties! Use that against them!
I admit that the secret to firing your real estate agent is almost not
a secret, but many people put off firing their real estate agent too
long, and suffer for it.
Don't delay! If you are not happy with your real estate agent
or Realtor, fire them today!

Property Agent Loyalty
Would you be surprised to learn that your dentist has the candy in the corner? Would you be embarrassed that the mechanic who fixes the brakes on your car was also selling electronic goods?
These examples may seem a bit exaggerated, but they are relevant to our discussion. In such scenarios, you'd be extremely worried because of conflicts of interest that such business could generate. This is actually the reason why the mandate report was created: to protect property agents who claim to work for your benefit, don't end up working on behalf of another party.
Under the law, your property agent must fulfill the duties and responsibilities arising from the report of mandate: to offer his services with due care and integrity, confidentiality and with loyalty.
The property agent must indicate in writing that he agrees to act as your agent in a property transaction. He can represent the house buyer or the house seller and in some cases, the agent can represent both the house seller and buyer involved in a single transaction. The important point is that the property agent disclose this information, to the parties concerned as required by law.
The types of property relationships:
The buyer's property agent
The estate agent works exclusively for the buyer, takes an oath to respect confidentiality and works to find the best possible opportunity for the house buyer. The house seller should make sure not to reveal anything before the estate agent of the buyer that he would hide from the buyer. Indeed, the house buyer's agent is required to bring this information to the attention of his client.
The seller's estate agent
The estate agent is obliged under the law and ethics, to work solely on behalf of the house seller. The property seller's estate agent finds the best possible conditions for his client and has no obligation to the purchaser other than to disclose any defect in the condition of the property.
As a property seller, you should be able to count on his full confidence. As a house buyer, be careful what you say in the presence of the agent of the seller. The house seller's estate agent is obliged to disclose any information that could benefit his client.
Dual property agent mandate
In some cases, the same property agent (or agents of the same property brokerage) represents both the seller and the buyer. In such a situation, the broker must be impartial. The nature of the dual mandate should be disclosed to the client and the client must acknowledge in writing that he has understood the nature of this relationship with the appointed property agent.
