Celebrating my first year as a real estate agent. I began investing 3 years ago, and we decided it would be best for me to get my license. Right away, I signed up as an investor-friendly agent with BP, and my first sale came through that lead!
In my first year, I closed a total of 14 transactions. In a market where the average sold price was $234,000, my sales ranged from $40,000 to $390,000 for a total of 2.7 million in sales volume. I represented the buyer side on nine of those transactions, and the seller side on five.
I still get leads through Bigger Pockets, and work with those investors to help them find properties that will work for them.
Congrats! It's amazing to see another example of how when you make a plan and execute it well, you are rewarded. I think so many new agents try to do it alone and without putting themselves out there through advertising. You have proven that even during pandemic times its still possible to be successful! Thank you!
Amy, what an awesome year 1! When you say you signed up w/BP - did you pay for their realtor leads program? Or did you go Premium & just stay active on forums? I used to be Premium until they changed their algorithm for realtor searches on here...Curious what method you are using.

Celebrate the wins!
Congrats! My business partner was telling me on a call yesterday that he got started on the RE agency side with leads from BP. To-date, he is still working with those investors and closing deals. Wishing you continued success!

My business partner started off by being active in the forums. People began to reach out to him. I'm not familiar with BP's premium offer for agents. Has anyone from BP reached out to you? I received a DM from a person at BP asking me if I wanted more buyer leads.

Holly, Sorry for the delay in responding. I paid for the leads program.

Thank you! It's a little slow right now with investors because it's hard to find deals that actually make sense, but we just have to keep at it...even if it's 1 out of 100 that we look at.

Yes, I've gone through it with them. I have a lot of 'thoughts' and feedback I have expressed to them, but it must be working bc so far they haven't changed their program based on little old me haha. It's a sizeable upfront investment that makes a lot of sense in certain markets and not as much sense in others...my two cents. Hopefully they don't slap my hand for saying that! Still love ya BP!
