I am a teacher at a prestigious private school and I truly love my job. I can't wait to get my license and start this business but I must admit I am in a quandary as to how I will find listings as a new agent. I recently sold my home for the amount asked on the first day. I had a great house, priced correctly but I also chose an agent that I knew had a good reputation. How am I to compete with that? I have lived here my entire life and I do have many friends but I can't imagine them hiring me. I am perceived to be upbeat, happy, dependable, yada yada yada.....Oh, I am also a fit, active, 50 year old woman. Am I crazy? I plan on giving this my best shot. New Orleans market isn't as bad as other places at the moment. How much could I hope to earn my first year?
