Should You Become a Realtor in Harrisonburg?

Career in Real Estate

As I sit in Greenberry's working way on my laptop, conversations are floating through the air around me.  Curiously, one is between two folks who are talking about the real estate business -- with one individual having recently considered becoming a Realtor.  One curious snippet (it's hard not to eavesdrop sometimes) was related to being a full time agent versus a part time agent.  This individual commented that it is hard for it to be a profitable endeavor, and thus even worthwhile to do, if you are being a Realtor on a part time basis. 

I would agree with this assessment, and I always encourage potential Realtors to consider whether they can do so on a full time basis.  This greater amount of commitment and dedication can make them more successful in the short and long term. 

Anyhow -- if you (like this gentleman in Greenberry's) are wondering whether you out to become a Realtor, let me know if you'd like to get together to discuss the topic. 

I love my career, and would be happy to chat with you about what it is like to work as a Realtor in this area.  Coffee (at Greenberry's or otherwise) is on me -- just email me at scott@HarrisonburgHousingToday.com.

PS.  If you don't conclude that real estate is the career for you, it might be worthwhile chatting with Kyle at CPL Coaching for further career guidance.
