Realtors have a great job!
I was asked (told) today the real estate market is awful, right? Wrong sir. The market is fantastic for the few (agents) and uncertain for the weak. I make my living by promoting a service to sale real estate and to consult my clients on the pros and cons of the greatest investment in a person's lifetime. Feel free to jab at the fact that many Realtors seem to have it easy because of preconceived notions that we are lazy and our commission checks are excessive. Actually...actually, the surviving agents of this current market are only spending longer hours in their cars and on the phone, and spending more of their commission on advertising than ever before. Yes, we are self employed and the market VALUES are in decline, but not the service or workload of my office or those who are striving to give great service at a time where houses are taking longer to sell, and convincing sellers their value of their home is 30% less than before is hard, but I am selling homes. So you who asked "told" the question,"the market is really rough", I say to you sir, my job is awesome because what I am making of it. But many will not agree and I say to those agents...you need to seek out another job because I am only going to spend more money to reach those sellers serious about selling their home and understanding I am going to spend more money to advertise the seller's home to more prospective buyers than ever before...Lets call it...a SPENCE REVOLUTION!
