The Good Real Estate Company doesn’t just recruit seasoned agents; we also seek out fledgling agents who are just starting out. We remember the challenges faced by agents that are new to the industry, so we readily mentor new agents who share our values.
Considering Joining the Profession?
With any potential career, you must first determine if it’s the right career for you. Real estate agents are service driven people with good interpersonal skills. A good agent has outstanding listening skills, a thirst for knowledge, a positive attitude, and always puts the client first. They are excellent problem solvers who can overcome obstacles successfully and positively, while remaining professional, respectful, and courteous to clients, colleagues, and the community.
Obtaining the necessary education to become a real estate agent is only the beginning. The profession is a lifelong commitment to training and development; you must consistently acquire current and ever-changing industry knowledge while also maintaining a thorough understanding of legalities, ethics, and negotiations. Education and success are intrinsically linked and you must value both.
Every client relationship and subsequent real estate transactions are different. The elements may be the same, but each home, each client, each negotiation is unique.
