We spend a lot of time discussing how agents can improve their business, but what about agents that are new to the game?

If you’re new to the world of real estate, welcome! This industry is filled with potential but success comes only to those who are ready to fight for it. Getting started on the right foot is essential to success, which is why we’d like to offer three pieces of advice to those new to the industry:

1. You are running a business. Real estate can be a very fun industry, but it’s important to remember that it’s business, and businesses need to make money. If you plan on making money as a Realtor, you have to treat the job just like any other business: be organized, invest in the right Real Estate technology, make business and marketing plans, keep track of expenses, and pay your taxes.

2. Make a schedule and stick to it. Real estate can allow for a flexible schedule, but your productivity will depend upon how you organize your time. Keep efficiency in mind. Invest in tools that help you do more in less time, and never, ever miss an appointment with a client!

3. Be clear and sincere. Make sure that your explanations are clear and easy to understand and that you’re saying what you mean to say. Sincerity builds trust; when your clients trust you, they’ll tell their friends – building your referral network and establishing your name in the market.

In the end, whether you’re just starting out in Real Estate or have worked in the industry for years, everyone still has plenty to learn.

We wish all of you fresh realtors out there the best of luck and hope you’ll think of dotloop when you think of ways to gain a competitive advantage.
