Here are a few things to keep in mind: It's not just about selling homes: While selling homes is certainly a big part of what we do, there's a lot more to being a realtor than just closing deals. We also spend a lot of time networking, marketing our services, and building relationships with clients. It's not always glamorous: Sure, we get to see some pretty amazing homes, but being a realtor also involves a lot of behind-the-scenes work, such as paperwork, negotiating deals, and managing client expectations. It's a 24/7 job: Real estate doesn't stop just because the office is closed. We're often working nights and weekends to accommodate our clients' schedules and make sure everything is running smoothly. It's all about relationships: At the end of the day, being a successful realtor is all about building strong relationships with clients and colleagues. It's about listening to their needs, understanding their goals, and providing the guidance and expertise they need to succeed. So, there you have it - a glimpse into what it really looks like to be a realtor.

Here are the first steps to take when considering renting out your home:" Research local rental rates: Before setting a rental price, it's important to research local rental rates to ensure that you're pricing your home competitively.
