What Does It Take To Be A Realtor?

Get Ready to Work
Hi guys, so it is 7:30. I am still in the office. I started my day at 5 a.m. Today and I'm probably going to be here till about 10:30 or 11:00 tonight. And that is a typical day for an agent a lot of days. It's not every day, but it's often a lot of people have a misconception about what it is to be an agent. I-know it can look like all Glam and Glory when the markets going but when it’s not - only those who work hard thrive.
If you want to be an agent that actually can provide a life for themselves from their real estate income alone you better get ready to work. The days are long and everything we do is time-sensitive. And that means it has to get done right away, not later, not tomorrow. The job doesn’t care how tired you are or how long your day was, if you have documents due, you're not going to bed until they are done. You could go to bed tonight and have nothing on your schedule for tomorrow And when you wake up at 6 a.m. Tomorrow, you may have 20 things at all of a sudden need to be done in the next four hours. And you better get it all done.
Because at the end of the day, these are people's homes. It's their largest asset and everything must be done immedicable and with the utmost respect and due diligence. This is their future retirement. This is their retirement savings or their children's education fund. Their homes are most likely every penny they've ever earned.
And that's the reality of being an agent.
It's not all this Glam you see on Instagram and the huge pay-checks you hear about, it's all that PLUS what I'm telling you.
