8.) Real estate coordinator

Didn't you wish there was someone who could walk you through all aspects of home buying process? Real estate agents sell you home while mortgage brokers and loan officers help you finance purchase. However they are all interested parties and don't provide you with entire picture.

I don't know if there are any real estate coordinators around, but I think there is a strong potential for such business. What does real estate coordinator do? He provides home buyers with with vital information about neighborhoods of potential interest such as house prices, quality of schools, crime, supermarkets, libraries, hospitals, health centers and fitness clubs. Real estate coordinator should also be able to explain mortgage options, help clients to choose right broker and mortgage company for their needs.

Are you an expert on some interesting subject like 18th century German literature, Georgian wines, history of magic. Do you collect unusual items such as Soviet era stamps, French playing cards or old toy train sets?

One way to make money is to offer some of your rare items for sale. Another opportunity to earn is to find a market for your expertise. You can help people doing research on your subject or offer authentication services.
