If you were to Reccomend a Book  What would it be?

I recently got a call today from a Realtor here in town, looking for a book that they should read to improve as a Realtor. They know I am a bookworm and have a larger library of books that I could suggest a few... Well like Zig Ziglar says "Don't loan a book, give them a copy" So I went out and gave them a copy of The Millionaire Real Estate Agent.

When I gave it to them they had a stunned look on their face "Hey you don't work for Keller Williams" was their response. I know, but this is a book you should read. They questioned why I would recommend something that clearly was by a competitor in our area. My response, read it and apply the stuff, there is no rule that you can't use it unless you work for Keller Williams...

So what books that you have read that should be on a newer Realtor's must read list?

I'd say the Total Money Makeover by Dave Ramsey. What I realized about Realtors - including those that make big money doesnt know how to keep it. This book will take them real life lessons on keeping more than you spend.

I also have the Millionaire Real Estate Agent,

enjoyed reading 21 Things I Wish My Broker Had Tol dMe by Frank Cook

and the old stand-by when I'm stuck on a "catchy" ad - Winning Ads for Real Estate.

Good question.

I read the book years before I became a Keller Wiliams agent.

I re-read it again after joining the company. It is a fabulous book that really helps an agent know the steps necessary to grow their business, what steps to take to get to there.

Who cares which company wrote it, the message is for ALL agents.
