Hey everyone!

Real Estate Agent with Real Estate Resources

Hey, my name is Rory,

So, I'm a new Real Estate Agent in the Las Vegas area, but I work with an established office that has been in the business for nearly 2 decades.

Anyways, I'm working for the office as a personal assistant right now, while i'm waiting for my license to come in. I'm also new to the active reign network, but very interested in the idea of networking with like-minded agents who want to communicate through the internet.

If anybody has any advice for a new agent in las vegas, or just any advice in general, I'd love to hear about it.

If you have any questions about myself, my office, or even our listings, please respond! If I get a favorable response, I'll see about putting up information on the listings the office has, I'm sure the broker and agents wouldn't mind getting some extra exposure. ; )

Thanks for taking the time to read my blog, and I hope that I can find people who want to get business done in our current market!

Hi Rory, Welcome to AR. I have noticed that if I log on to AR daily then I am able to keep up with national real estate news. It comes in very handy to hear what's going on nationwide and in my own area.

Good Luck for your future!

Welcome. First think you should do is put up a photo of yourself so we know who we are talking too. Then be sure to fill out every profile you go to on the web to it's fullest. Then search your local paper for ideas to blog about. And now you have 2 contacts to send referrals to. Please check out our blogs at let me know how I can help you.

Hi Rory,

Welcome to AR! I just noticed your site. I am new to this myself as in about 15 minutes!

I am excited about learning this new concept to me. I am sure you will find most of the people on here to be more than helpful (so I hear!)

Hi Rory, Welcome to AR! This is a great place to get to know people a learn from the pros. I know that you are excited! I can remember my first post here. Have a great time.

Well, i'll see if I can get a picture up here. Thanks for the advice. I guess I should probably fill in the rest of my profile. I guess I didn't realize how 'active' active rain was.

I'll definitely take those points to heart.

Hey Rory, I suggest you log on each day. Read the blogs that seem interesting and sometimes ones that don't. You will find some real gems. If you don't see anything good (I doubt you won't) you can go further back to see older blogs. I have found that if you ask questions you will get answers. This is the coolest free site you are going to find. GOOD LUCK!!!!

Thanks thomas, I'll be taking the rest of the day to find those ones that interest me. I'm really interested in the Las Vegas area, as that is where I will be conducting business, but I understand that out of state references are one of the big boons to using Active Rain.

Thanks for the comment!
