False

On the seller's net proceeds form, which proration should NOT be included?

Insurance

A broker is compiling a seller's net proceeds form for a seller. The figures she gathers are as follows: Brokerage fee 7% Title insurance $ 780.00 Termite inspection and treatment 300.00 Sales price 127,500.00 Existing first mortgage @ 10% 98,601.60 Documentary stamps on deed ? Property taxes for the year 1,745.60 Interest proration (paid in arrears) ? Closing date June 30 What are the total prorations, rounded to the nearest $100? Will the prorations be added or subtracted from the equity?

The answer is $1,700 subtracted. Property taxes for the year are $1,745.60. One-half year's taxes charged to the seller are $872.80 ($1,745.60 ÷ 2). Interest on mortgage = $98,601.60 × .10 = $9,860.16 per year; $9,860.16 ÷ 12 months = $821.68. $872.80 + $821.68 = $1,694.48 total prorations charged to seller; round to $1,700.

Property taxes for the year 1,745.60 Interest proration (paid in arrears) ? Closing date June 30 What are the total expenses, rounded to the next highest $100?

The answer is $10,900. $8,925.00 ($127,500 × .07) brokerage fee + $780 title insurance + $300 termite inspection + $892.50 documentary stamps ($127,500 ÷ 100 × .70) = $10,897.50 total; round to $10,900.

Property taxes for the year 1,745.60 Interest proration (paid in arrears) ? Closing date June 30 What are the seller's net proceeds, rounded to the nearest $100?

The answer is $16,300. $28,900 seller's equity - $10,900 expenses - $1,700 prorations = $16,300 seller's net proceeds.

Property taxes for the year 1,745.60 Interest proration (paid in arrears) ? Closing date June 30 What is the seller's equity, rounded to the nearest $100?

The answer is $28,900. The seller's equity is calculated by deducting the mortgages from the sales price. $127,500.00 sales price - $98,601.60 mortgage balance = $28,898.40 seller's equity; round to $28,900.

The reason for eliminating cents and rounding to the nearest $100 on the seller's net proceeds form is to

The answer is accomplish all of these. The reasons for eliminating cents and rounding to the nearest $100 on the seller's net proceeds statement are to (1) avoid giving the impression that the figures will be exactly as shown at closing; (2) make the statement easier to understand; and (3) provide a cushion in the estimate.

Which is NOT one of the three major problems in showing the property a FSBO might expect?

The likelihood that the seller will save the commission.

A FSBO sign can adversely affect the sellers' security.

True

Asking sellers to help you with measuring the house is a way to build rapport.

True

Asking whether the sellers would like you to try to get the home into the MLS as soon as possible is an effective method of asking for the listing.

True

Before making a listing presentation, you should have prepared a comparative market analysis (CMA) to help you show the sellers a fair value for their house.

True

Discussing the present condition of the property is a part of the homeselling process time line.

True

The principal reason that FSBOs try to sell their own homes is that they want to save the commission.

True

When preparing the interest proration on a seller's net proceeds form, the BEST policy is to enter

a full month of interest.

The final step in the listing presentation is

asking for the order.

The preferable approach to setting the listing price is to

go over the CMA carefully and help the seller to arrive at an appropriate range of values.

The base of the pricing pyramid shows

many buyers at lower prices.

When helping a seller price a property, a licensee should NOT

recommend a price before going over the data in the CMA.

The components of the seller's equity section of the seller's net proceeds form include

sales price, mortgages, and seller's equity.

If the sellers want to list the property before you have completed the listing presentation, you should

take the listing.

When explaining the current market conditions to the seller, one piece of information that would NOT normally be included is

the aggregate square footage of all listed homes.

A broker is making a listing presentation to a FSBO. She completes the CMA and the sellers agree to accept the net amount shown on the seller's net proceeds form. She should be able to take the listing now primarily because

the commission is included on the seller's net proceeds form, and the sellers have agreed to the amounts shown.

The reason it is not practical for a licensee to determine the exact prorations on the seller's net proceeds form when taking a listing is that

the exact closing date is unknown.

The reason MOST FSBOs won't be able to save the commission is that

the prospective buyer is buying direct to save the same commission.
