If you’re considering real estate as a career, or you’ve just gotten started – these 3 secrets can make a difference in your success story in real estate

Many agents never make it through their first two years. Mostly due to its high expectations for income and a real let-down when they’re not doing deals like they thought they would. Just because you go into the real estate business and tell all of your family and friends, doesn’t mean that you’ll start receiving tons of business referral from them. You may get a few from family, but don’t forget that your friends have other friends and they may be in real estate as well.

Then, there’s relying too much on whatever advertising the internet does for you. Don’t think that there will be leads coming in every week from your mention on your website or in the sponsored advertising. Yes, every enquiry is a potential sale/commission. Don’t look down on any prospect, as you may regret it. One of the biggest deals one new agent did her first year was because nobody else in the office wanted to work with the buyer with dirty and torn clothing. He turned out to be the owner of the local trash company.
