Real Estate Is A Courageous Business Effort

"Courage is the form of every virtue at the testing point." CS Lewis

The real estate business is a business that could be called courage inducing. There is no guaranteed paycheck for a commissioned salesman. There is only the possibility of success. And with each success, the possibility begins again.

Throughout each part of a transaction, from the initial meeting to the deposit of the check after the sale, courage is a requirement.  Sometimes courage is required to make the initial phone call.  Sometimes it is required to co-broke with an obstinate business person. Sometimes courage is required to choose what is right and best when others aren't or won't.

Real estate professionals are courageous. We address fears and obstacles every day. Every day we are tested in many virtues. Those who are successful in passing the testing point find success in business.

Happy listing and selling!

Heath-Courage is not a word that usually comes to mind when thinking of the real estate business, but, your statement is so true. And we keep coming back day after day. Is that courage, or are we ill?

Heath, I hadn't thought of it as courage but more like we are the soul drivers of our future income, but you are right, there is courage in there...

Hi Heath, I really concur.

I enjoy being a couragous Realtor.  Every day takes a new dose of elbow grease and Get 'er done attitude.
