Hey Chris, If your agent is only using RCM, they might not be familiar with platforms like Costar or LoopNet (which honestly should not be the case), or they simply may not have the budget to cover the upfront listing fees, which can get pricey.I’d circle back with them, address the plausible elephant in the room, and try to figure out a game plan to get your property on these other platforms.

They have degrees and interests in different segments of what I think are important facets of the real estate game, one will be graduating with a degree in construction management and the other in accounting.

For brokers, it is a numbers game and most of them want to consistently bring on new agents.You may have to meet with multiple brokers to decide which is the best fit for you.All the best!

If not, stop looking for up and coming, look for tried and true.
