Are you driving yourself crazy interviewing new agents? Do you feel like a broken record–telling them the same things over and over again? Having interviewed hundreds of would-be and new licensees, I’ve always marveled how little they knew about the practical aspects of real estate. And, how much they rely on us managers to educate them in the interview. Yet, it can take many hours per candidate to do just that. Those candidates have questions like
- Am I really cut out to sell real estate successfully? (not all are!)
- How should I choose the right office?
- What are managers looking for?
- How will you get me started to make money before my savings are gone?
- What are the secrets to succeeding?
Those pre-license courses just isna��t designed to provide a road map to real estate sales success.
Why Most of the Advice They Get Isn’t Enough
Sometimes these candidates think they’ll learn everything from talking to other agents. But, they dona��t have a wide enough perspective. They could even give some bad advice–not because they mean to hurt the candidate, but they dona��t have that a�?global viewa�� of real estate needed to get perspective.
