Hi BP family,

Congratulations!

Now the hard work begins. Check out "Sold" by David Greene, "Millionaire Real Estate Agent" by Gary Keller, or "Ninja Selling" by Larry Kendall. These books will teach you how to set yourself up and operate as a business instead of walking into the office and staring at a computer screen, wondering why your phone isn't ringing.

It typically takes an agent 2-3 years to build a business with decent income. That's going to be tougher in the coming years because we have about 50% more agents than 6-7 years ago and the market is slowing down considerably. You can still make it; just go in with realistic expectations.
