Looking for a Broker in NYC to hang my license. Any suggestions?

My name is Jeffrey Mark and I have been active in the real estate industry for two years as a real estate investor/wholesaler in the DC, Maryland and Virginia area. I recently passed my state exam to become a licensed salesperson and I am seeking a home in NYC to hang my license. Real estate is the center of my life. My previous endeavors in the industry have equipped me with an advantage that most new real estate agents lack. In addition to my experience I am always looking for ways to learn more and improve. I am looking to join a brokerage that I can not only contribute to the team, but where I am also able to learn from my peers. In order to be the best you have to surround yourself with the best. I'd love to meet with anyone who can further discuss the needs of your brokerage and how I am able to fulfill them. 

I would love to work with a broker who can possibly act as a mentor and guide me through my first couple of months as an agent.

Thanks for taking the time to read this brief description of myself. I'll be looking forward to hearing from you soon.

It was a great experience.  It's very competitive, but if you're great at networking and know how to handle the common objections you get, you will do fine.  You will also need to learn the inventory quickly.  Most buyers and sellers know a lot.  They expect you to also.  Knowledge and confidence will go a long way.  The key is to handle it like a business and really focus on bringing in sales. 

I used to say to myself, "What have I done in the last hour to bring in more business?"  If the answer was "nothing" too many hours in a row, I knew I was going down the wrong path.
