Somewhat New Agent trying to start...Again

[Van Alva]

Hi All,

I got my license at the end of 2019, I was so excited and ready to absorb everything with an agent that was "mentoring" me...then COVID happened and since being a Postal Clerk, I am essential and I am working long hours (my mentor works as a contractor for the post office so he was in the same boat as well).

Fast forward till now, my schedule has gotten back to normal where I am 9-5, but I haven't done anything with my license and now my mentor has been focused more on his own personal property flips and kinda tells me to go out a get clients and call him to help with the process.

Is it that normally what your supposed to do as a new agent. Go off and find someone and get help on the deal, or should there be some kind of training or what not on how am I atleast supposed to obtain clients?

Please help, I feel lost and frustrated 🥴.

Nearly 90% of all agents quit within two years. It's not hard to sell a house, but it's hard to find sellers willing to work with you. It generally takes 3+ years to build enough experience and a large enough network to earn a decent living. Unfortunately, nobody is going to build your business for you.
