Are you comfortable in your "real estate skin?"
Well, there are some who feel very comfortable with themselves physically, socially and emotionally. How many of you feel comfortable within your profession?
This may seem like an odd question to ask of a licensed agent who may have been active in this business for years. The question is reasonable. The answers may be surprising when one soul searches for the honest answer.
There are many agents who have been treading water and within the past four years have been tiring and are ready to sink. As the market slowly rallies, this is a fine opportunity to restructure your business.
Start 2012 with a new plan!! A more appropriate statement might be to “start 2012 with a plan.” It’s amazing to think that the majority of active real estate agents in an office do not have a structured game plan for the coming year; they do not have a niche area of concentration; they have managed to survive and are hoping to continue with their journey to nowhere.
Find a mentor and ask for help. This person might be the broker/owner or manager of your office. Compliment that help by following the example of many ActiveRain agents who share their thoughts and experience. Subscribe and follow their suggestions.
Pick and choose what you think might work well in your area of the country, but make sure you put the advice to use. Start 2012 in a new light and do more than tread water. It’s time to get comfortable in your real estate skin.
