As graduation season approaches, many students are faced with making the tough decision about where to go next. Here’s why real estate is a great career choice:
- Your days are never the same: In most corporate jobs, you spend countless hours working on the same mundane tasks in your cubical, day-in and day-out. In real estate, each day is different. One day you could be viewing properties, while the next you’re out meeting with customers or hosting an open house. The change is not only exciting; it’s refreshing!
- You have more freedom: Agents have the ability to choose where they work, when they work, how long they work and beyond. As long as you stay motivated, this flexibility can be very beneficial to your professional growth (you’ll become a master at managing your time and staying organized), as well as to your personal growth (talk about work-life balance!).
- There is unlimited room for growth: As a real estate agent, you’re accountable for your own success. While brokers are there to support you through challenges, you’re essentially in the driver’s seat when it comes to the direction and growth of your own personal brand. Having this independence can be both rewarding and empowering.
- The job is very rewarding: There really is no better feeling than knowing you were able to make someone else’s dreams come true. As real estate agents, you’re able to do that on a daily basis! With each closing, you are giving a family a new chapter in their book of life – no dollar amount could even come close to that.
