Any advice on getting started for a new Real Estate Broker in Raleigh, North Carolina?

[Ryan Fitzgerald]

Hi Everyone,

Recently passed my state exam and signed with kw.

Right now, I'm feeling a little overwhelmed with everything I could be doing to get started. As a result I feel like I'm lacking focus and trying to do a little bit of everything.

If you were starting out today... what are the 3 things you would tell yourself to focus on?

Thank you!

Ryan

Hi Ryan

I know how you feel, I felt that way and now after 12 months am finally starting to get a handle on it all. I would:

1. Choose a farm area and write a plan to market to it consistently for the next 12 months. Ask your BIC how to analyze an area to see if its good to farm.

2. Go door to door. I know its hard, but once you've done this you can do anything. Plus it gets you talking face to face with potential clients. 

3. Do post licensing training / study your contracts, get familiar with all the tools you will be using once you start getting clients.

Don't put too much pressure on yourself, choose a few things to do, try them and then tweak with experience. Stick to it and you will do great.
