If it's not much you better be out there "pressing palms" with as many people as possible.Even when you get a listing or buyer it's months at least before you get a first check.If you don't have multiple other closings coming that month and the next from your pipeline the first check will be gone in a flash.The failure rate for leaving the business is over 90% the first year.So find out what you will enjoy (niche) that fits your lifestyle.For me it is commercial real estate.Normal hours and it's an analysis game with numbers and NOT a therapist game with drama all the time.Find the niche and become and expert in it and not a generalist and people will seek you out for business.
