Let me tell you... The life of a new Real Estate Agent is not easy. I just got licensed last Monday and I've been working more for the past week and a half as a Realtor, than if I was working my regular 9-5 job, and I didn't even get paid.
Take yesterday for example. I got up at 5 am, had extra strong coffee, checked my emails, checked new listings, checked new private listings, prepared few FSBO packages. By 9 am I was on my way to the office, on my way I dropped off the FSBO packages I earlier prepared. At the office, I sat down with my broker and we both prepared my new website and figured out all 1000 different log ins I now have. By 11 am I was off to get my nails done, but that was not all leisure activity anymore. I talked business and gave out couple of my cards. After the appointment I had a quick bite to eat and went back to the office for the weekly training. I was finally back home at 5 pm and had dinner with my family. At home I have 15 year old and 17 months old girls. I spent the rest of the afternoon and early evening taking care of the younger one, cleaning the house etc. After I said good night to both of my girls, I went upstairs to the office to plan my next day. I studied all the training materials I received earlier in the day and I started putting together buyer and seller packages. By midnight I was done and very tired.
I worked 12 solid hours yesterday and not a penny for it. That's ok, I'm happy to do it because I love Real Estate and I want to be in this business. I just wish everyone would know that Real Estate is hard work. Today I will start prospecting for business so my days will fill up even more.
Now that I'm done with this blog, it's time to get ready and go into the office. There, I will make some phone calls, get few more things set up and then I will be off on open house tour. In the afternoon I will prospect in my area. It will be another busy day.
I AM A REALTOR.
