The real estate market (this will come as a surprise to no one) is not the same as it was a little while back. Many of us Realtors are in a downturn. Bring it on! One thing we've noticed in our industry is some decrease in the overall numbers of Realtors. This is part of the market correction. Not only are prices coming down, but the number of Realtors is coming down also. Many pros will assert that this is a good and natural part of our business.
Even when business was booming, it always took skill, tenacity and a willingness to roll with the punches to rise to the top. Each year, Realtor.org publishes a "30 Under 30", showcasing an exceptional bunch of Realtors who are out there doing it and making it big. Check out this article here:

What we'll see this year is that, as always, you can succeed in any market. But we'll also see a great example of young professionals who have proven themselves especially adept at taking advantage of the unique opportunities presenting themselves to us at this time. A downturn requires creativity and adaptation. Let's take a look at these trendsetters, learn something new and apply it to our own businesses. After all, success can and ought to be duplicated
