[quote=Biyobe]Yep I think you're on the right track. I may be a little too popular if I post in the introduction form. I know the inventory is down across the nation and everybody is looking for the way in. It is definitely a tough game right now. I'm not necessarily on here to look for new brokers, but more to answer any questions about what the asset managers may be looking for or why things happen the way they do from an outsourcer point of view

Oh and Biyobe is also a nickname that I'm not really known by in the office/industry so I think it should be fine to use online here :) [/quote]

So, how about some listings for northeast Florida, B' ;)

Just kidding, but welcome to the forums. :D Definitely going to be a help to understanding the process from the other side of the fence.

(But I wasn't seriously joking, I wouldn't mind some more listings.)

11 days and 15 posts - Welcome to you as well Jax - it is nice to see newbies that follow the rules and that can add to the forum before they ask for help - good to see you really knew better

Yes that is correct.

Here we go with an straight question then:

I've attended two of the FAREO conferences and got one listing and sold it in no time for a Cash deal, after that they told me I was going to be a preferred agent. But it never happened so here I am still looking for the way in. Although, some of the fellows that I met there were loan officers with mortgage companies and they got more properties than realtors. How is that possible?

One pronunciation Biyobe is BYOB. Did you earn this nickname in high school or college?

Recovering - you have a valid question but was the mortgage company also a real estate company? If so, I can see an advantage from their eyes.

Unless Biyobe says different, how about we just let Biyobe provide answers to our general concerns rather them blasting Biyobe with a barrage of questions - just a thought.

Recovering - taking away what already has happened that cannot be undone by Biyobe - I see your question as, 'How do I get more listings from FAREO?'

I wish I could set Biyobe's PM box so anyone wanting to PM would have to 500 or 1000 posts first

500 to 1000 posts?........Works for me...sign me up....lol

You can bet his mail box will be full. I'm just happy to see we have one in the mix.

I agree Candy - I hope members understand how people like ~J, Val and Biyobe really adds to our knowledge and understanding of their companies and the way they do business - and the business in general.

Thanks for getting on board Biyobe, let me know if you need anything

I agree with you 100%. Knowledge is power...
At times, I may not agree, with some of the names you mentioned. In the same breath, I don't want to see them chased off. It's like taking a class....if you learn "one new thing", then the class was worth it....the same goes for posts. There's a ton of knowledge that has been passed down in this forum, and more to come.

Welcome,
I just received my 2nd Listing from FAREO this week, I am just wondering what I did that got me these listings. Was it doing FARVV BPOs? Registering and doing BPOs for RES.NET/USRES? Emailing the AMs?

I did literally thousands of BPOs for them and I just got my first Pre-list.........I don't even think know how I got it.

You must deserve the listings - I am jealous

I have also handled assets for fareo ... and I have NEVER* done a BPO for them ...



*(other then as required for the asset listing)

So, it could be that a BPO that I did from another company led to the pre-list....

Every time I pick up a new REO company or new manager, I always ask that question (why me?). To this day, I've never gotten a straight answer. I think previous BPO's may be the source.
