One of Our Agents Had This to Say

You truly amaze and inspire me with your tech skills and general knowledge base of just about everything! I have told you and I want to say it again, we are all so blessed to have a broker that works tirelessly and diligently to keep us relevant! As I meet and speak to more and more agents and realize that they pay a butt load of money to be with their firms and they get an eighth of the leads IF that and pay for everything from signs, to advertising, to business cards to…. EVERYTHING!

The Work Life of a Real Estate Agent

As one works each day in real estate, every day is a new day. Boredom is not an option and meeting new people is a must. In addition, real estate agents gain invaluable skills such as marketing, sales, operations, negotiations and networking. Most real estate agents operate as independent contractors, which mean they decide their own business model and set their own schedule.

Working at a local real estate firm adds value to the community by helping fellow residents and new neighbors realize their dream of home ownership. Not only can it be personally rewarding, but practicing real estate is also a great way to network and meet new people in the community.
