Property Management
Real estate companies continuously work with a large number of properties, and they often have to take care of several maintenance tasks. As a result, a real estate power team needs a resourceful team of technicians and manual workers to assist them with any preparations a property might need.
Legal
Like every other business out there, realtors could be the subjects of legal challenges. These possible challenges could be one of the following:
- Antitrust issues
- Fair housing
- Tax issues
- Misleading advertisement
- Issues with full disclosure
- and a lot more
To avoid this, you can have a lawyer and a CPA on the team. Alternatively, you could delegate these tasks to a law firm.
