New Agent Training

Monika New Agent Training

There is so much more to real estate than meets the eye. Many folks enter the business with unrealistic expectations, no budget and no clue how much work it takes to “make it” in this industry.

Passing the test is one big first step but the interview process is the next big hurdle. Asking questions about training and support is crucial. Feeling comfortable in the office environment is important as well. Let’s face it, nobody looks forward to the 1st day on a new job but being sure that the culture of the office you pick matches what you’re looking for, is a make or break.   Don’t be afraid to ask questions, walk around the office, talk to agents who are there but most importantly  understand that you need to be willing to put in the time required to learn all the new skills and be open to doing things outside your comfort zone.  The “real estate closing fairy” is not going to come and just sprinkle commissions your way … you need to be proactive and make that happen.  Don’t ever close the “book” to learning…. as there will always be more pages to add.
