Siberian I agree with you. The original post was from a new agent trying to get started. No where did they ask for advice on what company is the best.

My advice is to find a company (whatever brand) that has a good new agent training program. A task driven program with accountability is best. Having a mentoring program has fast tracked many of many agents.

Real estate agents should are here to facilitate the buying and selling of real estate. If you want to build a "profit sharing" team then join Tupperware or Amway.

Thanks, I've only been around for about a year and therefore am pretty "new" too. But I was far more naive in the beginning. New people really desrve to be properly warned about certain pitfalls.

I have been doing this for 20 years and wish there had been the technology and a forum such as this when I started.

KW Agent is still out there trying to build the pyramid. SELL REAL ESTATE. If you want to build something buy or start your own company. All pyramid schemes bust at some point.

The best advise is to educate yourself as much as possible. If you are looking to get a great start on your career I suggest reading "what no one is telling you about real estate sales" which can be found at www.realestatecareersecrets.com go take a look, it is well worth your time...

Now you're being annoying...
