New Agent! How to Decide on Best Part-Time Broker in Fort Worth?
I just passed my test and am ready to meet with sponsored brokers in the Fort Worth area!
Now, as the rest of you know, when you submit an application to TREC, your personal data is sold off to every broker in the world. My spam box is now full, I've received dozens of USPS mailings, and even have a couple text messages to boot.
Principally, I'd like to work with anyone who DOESN'T spam new applicants but as an entrepreneur, I also understand the data stream and spamming it relatively cheaply could provide a return.
QUESTION: As an active duty service member, how do I determine the best brokerage relationship that understands that I will NOT be their top salesman anytime soon? Are there plenty of other agents that only do this part time?
My goal would be to gain experience over the next few years prior to retirement by only closing on 3-4 deals a year. I want to ensure I get my feet under me slowly, provide a great service, and communicate that to a broker appropriately.
