Tips for a new agent to crush it!?
I am in the process of getting my realtor license and am motivated to use this as one of my tools to get out of my current job.
My current job is a correctional officer and it mentally about knocks me out 5 days a week. I am battling my work days as most of my mental capacity is gone by the time I’m off work.
Instead of complaining or using that as an excuse I am focused on being a top paid realtor and also focus on a side business of rent to own that will go well with my real estate license.
I am asking for any tips or any other realtors advice that wish they knew when they were getting started?
