I'm a realtor, but my niche is finding the very best deals on the market through more of an analytical perspective. My degree is in accounting and I formerly worked for KPMG LLP and this helps me in taking a much different approach than that of the typical realtor. I work with appraisers and utilize appraisal software so that I'm only looking at the top 5% of deals out there. While I find what my client is looking for, I also try to help them find the best of the best in terms of deals. For instance, if I have a client looking to buy in Irvine, there might be 100 houses for sale, and some of them are overpriced, some are priced right, and some are priced too low. Out of the ones priced too low, I try to find the top 5-8 and look at those with my client in person. A lot of times, they are $30,000 or $40,000 undervalued which leads to instant equity or improving someone's net worth right away.
