Life As A New Real Estate Agent

[Howard Eyre]

Hello BiggerPockets Community. 

I am a newly licensed real estate agent in Salt Lake City Utah. 

I decided to get my license after a discussion with my step brother (who is now my broker) about how I could get into real estate investing. We discussed that getting my license and starting to work in the field would give me a great opportunity to learn about the market and give me a heads up in investing. So, I am pursuing becoming an investor for myself, and currently wanting to work with other investors in their pursuits. 

Which brings me to my point. I have read the posts on BiggerPockets regarding choosing a Real Estate Agent,  the surefire way to find the best real estate agent in 3 easy steps https://www.biggerpockets.com/... How to find an investor friendly real estate agent https://www.biggerpockets.com/... Real estate agent, or no real estate agent?? https://www.biggerpockets.com/...

These are all great articles, but I feel like a college graduate reading through job posts which all state 5 years experience as a requirement or something like that. These all emphasize, look for the agent doing the most deals, look for the agent with the most experience, etc. 

I am asking this community, what are some tips for newbie Real estate agents? For these Agents who do not have the years of experience. What are some things that you love about agents you work with, aside from their years of experience? What are some tips for up and coming agents that can help us help you? Obviously new agents won't always know answers to every question investing clients have for us, but hopefully we work with quality brokers who do have good answers (I'm glad I do-my step brother/broker invests in the Salt Lake Area and works on flips, brrrrr's, investments, regularly. 

Thanks for reading and responding.
