How to Be Off To a Good Start as Real Estate Agent - Without Going Bankrupt

78 percent of agents won't be able to support themselves financially until 6 months in the business.

A shocking statistic!

But don't worry, there are ways to speed that timeline up and make it as a good agent - without going bankrupt!

1) Older leads: The average real estate lead is six to eight months old. When joining a team with older leads, you can get leverage by working with these leads and shorten the time until your first closed transaction and until the money starts coming in.

2) Open Houses: At open houses, you meet potential homebuyers that are already going out of their way to search for a new home, but maybe don't have an agent yet. These target group is interesting for you as a new agent!

2) Part time: Starting out in real estate part time and creating a plan to make a full time real estate career can help you with supporting yourself until the first closed transactions. Read our blog post about one of our team members, who started out as part time agent, here!
