The Unglamorous Side of Being a Real Estate Agent
Manage episode 407291370 series 3559274
Steven Gottlieb, author of the article, The Unglamorous Side of Being a Real Estate Agent for U.S. News & World Report says reality television and social media have done a great job making the daily life of a real estate agent look easy and glamorous. The public perception seems to be: Put on expensive clothes, see beautiful property, make a few deals, and take home big commissions.
The reality is that it’s a tough job. Not only must we provide top-notch service, but most of us will do what is necessary on behalf of our clients. We want to provide a smooth experience despite all the hurdles that seem to come up in just about every deal.
Even though we might win new business through slick self-promotion on Instagram, we prove our mettle to our clients (and ourselves) during the grittiest, trickiest and often most undignified moments on the job. And there can be many.
