Passed RE EXAM !!!!!! NEXT STEP IS....
I'm really excited I passed my school and state exam for RE! Im ready to select a brokerage and Im sure being a new agent may be difficult. So to start my career, besides spreading the word to my sphere of influence, I plan on targeting the high-priced neighborhoods and of course networking more with people I come across. I am still learning some tips on bringing in referrals as well.
As far as a fresh start, can anyone share their success story as a new agent? Thank you in advance

Do your research and focus on NOT what Is listed but what is SELLING. That shows buyer demand in the marketplace.
You could go out and list like gangbusters but if the product you are selling is not desirable in the marketplace then you are on a sinking ship.
Have inventory of what buyers want to buy and not want sellers want to sell.
