Michael Wienecke Hey, so today on the podcast, we’re gonna be talking about real estate and I’ve got my good friend. Chancie Rogers Hey, I’m Chancie Rogers with Chancie Rogers Realty brokered by Keller Williams Hoover. Michael Wienecke Well, Tennessee. So a couple questions for you what got you into real estate? Chancie Rogers Well, actually, I had already had our, at the time three year old, and my husband’s a fireman. And so we were looking for a way for me to be able to stay at home and not have to be away from him so much. So I started in December of 2013, getting my license. And then we found out in February of 2014, that I was pregnant with our second child. So no, that’s not right. 2015. And so I decided to go all in with real estate. I was working for a paper company in Birmingham, eight to five. And I fell in love with it, and it took off. And it’s been a roller coaster ever since. Michael Wienecke Well, and you started at the perfect time for housing because the market was just on fire. Chancie Rogers Yeah, I had six months of just a normalized market, where things sat for, you know, 30 days. And then we went straight into COVID market. And it was it blew up fast. Michael Wienecke Oh, yeah, I remember you were calling me daily 567 times a day. So Chancie Rogers Yeah, absolutely. Yeah. And it was it was, hey, how fast can you get out there? Michael Wienecke Well hey, um, any advice for someone getting into real estate Now, as far as you know, the good, the bad, what you what you’ve seen? Chancie Rogers Yeah, you just have to really be dedicated, you have to have, you have to have goals in mind, you have to know that this business runs off of what you do, what you put into it is what you get out of it. And I’m definitely seeing that now, outside of COVID market. You can’t just they’re not just sailing now. You You have to work, you have to mark it. You have to be disciplined and discipline yourself. I mean, it’s a lot of fun. It’s a lot of joy, because you’re helping people with one of the biggest decisions of their lives. But you have to you have to really be dedicated. Michael Wienecke Well, and also there’s kind of that law that you have to have to worry about, you know, if there’s no houses on the market, then you’re Chancie Rogers Yeah, I don’t think what people realize is real estate is all commission. It’s commission based and if you’re not selling, you’re not making money, a brokerage just hold your license to, you know, to represent you and to be there for you if something was to go awry. But you know, you’re all commission based, you get no money unless those houses sell when when those houses are sitting and you have to plan for that. Michael Wienecke Oh, yeah. So what’s what’s the average commission that you would get off of a home? Chancie Rogers It just depends on the area. So I work man, I mean, of course, I’ve sold everywhere in anywhere, but I’m mainly represent mainly due them a call area and here, you know, commission, you’re looking about $4,000 to $5,000. Once it’s split it, the usual split is anywhere between two and a half to three and a half percent for buyer and seller. So you’re looking you know, your your average commission, right here in the Mccala. area, unincorporated Mccala, you’re looking at about four to 5000. Michael Wienecke That’s not bad. Chancie Rogers Not bad, but then you have to take in the taxes and put it back into the company. You know, people look at it, and they’re like real estate agents make so much money. And I’m like, let me show you. Michael Wienecke Like, that’s like being a business owner, you know, so Chancie Rogers Yeah, I mean, you are like I’m an LLC, I own Chancie Rogers Realty. And it I mean, yes, Keller Williams is my home office. But I own my own business. So you pay those business taxes. And luckily, again, I’m you know, I’m blessed to be married to a fireman. So we have state and health insurance, but I know plenty agents have to pay for their own health insurance. So that’s another fee that rolls into all of that on top of our sons and our marketing and everything we do to make it a seamless transaction. Michael Wienecke Oh, yeah. Yeah. So um, I know, we’ve talked about this a lot. But where do you see the market? Or how is the real estate market now? From COVID to now, you know, what do you what do you see in Chancie Rogers You know, some, I think all agents have it different. Again, where I work, the areas that I work that I’m mainly in, we’re seeing a very slow market, we’re seeing houses sitting for a lot longer than what they were which is the norm. They call it the shift we’re in the middle of a shift and what’s so strange is usually everyone shifts together and you’re seeing more of the city’s not so much in a shift right now. Where the county the rural areas are in the shift. And I think that just due to who’s buying right now and who’s not buying ri...
