Real Estate is a Full Time Job!

To all those who think they can work in real estate, and hold down a full time job at the same time, I ask; "are you nuts?"

We come across them from time to time, people who won't commit enough to their business that they hold down a full-time job somewhere, and dabble in real estate. Theres one person in town who works full-time at RIM and works in real estate, I mean seriously! How can anyone seriously expect their Realtor to give them the proper level of attention and support when they aren't interested enough in real estate to make it their career.

I get my clients calling me at all hours. Calls at 10 pm or later aren't unusual, and neither are early morning calls. My average cell phone bill is $250 per month... thats a lot of minutes folks. That boils down to a lot of time devoted to answering questions, and being there for people. Did you know that a few years ago it was required that all Realtors work full-time?

I'm just saying, my advice is to make sure your Realtor does it full time. I wouldn't want knee surgery from a guy that works at the 7-11!
