Hi friends!! My name is Genevie Reyes. I recently became a licensed agent and hung my license with Keller Williams Brevard at the beginning of July. I am really excited about my journey as a new agent!

If you have any tips for a new agent, please share!

Thank you! I hope everyone has a great Tuesday!

Hi @Genevie Reyes, I am not an agent but when I was a new loan officer, I was hit with some harsh realities. We share half of the same clientele so hopefully, this is somewhat helpful.

1. Finding clients is not as easy as I thought it would be.

2. Do not count your paycheck before the deal is closed. Not all leads become deals and not all deals close. A bad inspection, a low appraisal, or cold feet all can cause a late-game backout.

3. Niche down. Focus on one client base and be the absolute expert in it. Investors want to work with investor-friendly realtors. Even if their mom is a realtor, they will still choose you because you are more helpful to them in that capacity.

3. Focus on marketing.

4. Focus on marketing.

5. Focus on marketing.

I know those are really vague so if you want some more tactical advice, feel free to ask.

Hope this helps! Let me know if I can be of any assistance.
