BiggerPockets Family,
I currently hold a full time job at PNC bank and have held my PA Real Estate Salesperson license for about 2 years now since graduating college in 2014. I understand that it is a tough feat to succeed as a real estate agent on the side but I know there are tricks out there and strategies to employ to maximize the time I am able to put forth. To add to my predicament, I have recently re-located from Philadelphia to Pittsburgh so my network is thin and my familiarity of the area is growing but not that of those experienced agents I'm competing with. In 2015, I closed on two houses (both co-workers at PNC) and fully understand how tough it was to juggle both jobs and provide acceptable service to my clients. That being said, I would love to hear how others succeed holding their license part time. While in college, I did very well placing tenants on a college campus for a local property management company but have not been able to find a similar partner in my new area to do so. As I will continue to seek out deals, I was curious of other creative ways to put my license to good use rather than compete against the big sharks and still have a profitable side career to supplement my day job. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!
