Hey! The bootcamp is open to those currently in the process of getting their license as well, along with those that are about to start the courses. Next one starts Sep 23 if you want to join!
Well I've got some great listings and well haven't had any bumps in the road as yet, could have a potential buyer by next month for an amazing property 😁😁
@@lordtwist8965 That’s amazing! I always love hearing the success, but also would love to know about the reality and what’s needed to be executed. Soon I would love to start wholesaling, but have little to no clue what I am doing. I’m trying to move up in the career field as becoming a Real Estate Realtor. I would love to connect with you and talk more about this topic, please let me know if that works for you. Thank you!
Amen!! Working 13 hours for myself where my salary and hours are all within my control, and actually reflect my work, beats the heck out of working 8 hours a day (meaning 13 hours but 5 unpaid) at a company while being miserable.
I think Nurses and Teachers make the best RE agents. I was a nurse too for 7 years before i went to RE and I’m in the top 1% of my MLS area in Las Vegas. Join our FB group (Nurses in Real Estate) once you get your license
Yes you might 😂. Keep in mind you don’t get any health care benefits, no paid vacation, no travel allowances, and we actually have to pay monthly fees to stay licensed with a broker. They like to call them “desk fees”. Imagine if you were paid as much as you make now as a nurse BUT your employer will make you wait for your pay. One month it will be a normal check then the next month you only make $1000 because it is winter and people don’t like moving in winter. The next month you get paid the money you missed the previous month but you owe the hospital $350 for the desk you used maybe twice last month because you work from home. Plus you have to pay Board of Realtors fees every 1-3 months. Plus a one time large sum the beginning of every year like over $1000. 😂 plus traveling. Plus you have to make the ads for your Hospital so you get clients
The truth is exactly what clients want from real estate agents. If clients feel like agents are hiding something from them, they will bolt. Disclose everything!!!
My experience is: the more you chase clients more you get burnt out. Rather make your personality so attractive that clients try to chase you. Number thing to make yourself attractive is be very honest and sincere besides that you have to have lots of knowledge about the industry and trends and keep close eye on the economy. I also try to save my time by taking short cuts and using technology. I try to analyze my own performance.
I don't think people mind working 12 hours a day. I think what matters is if those hours are worked for yourself. I work a 9 to 5 (really its 10 1/2 hours because of the commute) and it sucks the life force out of you.
facts, when I was working 12 hours a day at a cent plant it was awful the days dragged and I felt like I was doing nothing, now when I work 14 hour days for myself I feel like im productive and its not a chore!
DROPPING THE TRUTH LOIDA! Working for yourself to people who don't seem to think our lives are a constant vacation! The truth is, you will work 10X harder and in order to be successful you have to fall in love with the process. You have to love it even when it's hard, even when you are failing but in your heart you know there isn't anything else you want to be doing. "When you love what you do, you will never work a day in your life." NOPE, When you love what you do you will work harder than you ever have before. #exprealtyproud
This is so true. As a real estate broker, I’ve been encountering a lot of stress but after completing the sale and seeing the joy of the party I’m representing after becomes fulfilling 😊
Yes girl yessss! Love the breakdown and transparency, more people need to understand what they are getting themselves into! So many moving parts in the transactions you are juggling. This business is not for the faint of heart :)
I was thinking of joining real estate but need to take a budget friendly school to get my license. I have been working in property management I am familiar with that part of it. I am at the age where I want to accomplish this in my life and as a women I struggled with show much I want to show I can do it whatever your struggles in life are. I was in an abusive relationship for over 5 1/2 years and it took a toll with me and my daughter and really want to move into a positive path. My passion is also makeup, but it’s hard when no income is coming in from that. Any inspiration or thoughts are appreciated. Thank you.
Thank you for being real Loida. I am just submitting my application right now and it helps to mentally prepare myself for certain scenarios like you mentioned.
Great video. I can relate to all of that when I first started. The only thing that was different for me was I never went into the office. I found for me that working outside, specifically in cafes, parks, and bars led to more deals than when I was in the office doing floor time.
I’m going into real estate this next year and I kinda don’t want to be at an office. I know I have to sign on with a principal broker but I want to work from home or wherever.
That's why people should have sales experience prior to real estate school or be a inside agent for a real estate company...also one important thing they don't teach you is "terms"... giving ur seller more time to move out...or little house warranties of up to 250$ to avoid call backs....it Is very important who u choose as your broker!!! Been following BC TEAM! Wish you nothing but the best LOIDA!!
Tbh I think everyone should have sales experience regardless of the field they wish to enter in, the communication and persuasion skills one develops to be successful in sales is unmatched, has tremendous carryover and can be applied to any other aspect in life.
Studying to become a real estate agent in South Florida. Thanks for you real af content. You’re right, not a lot of people posting the hard truths realtors face.
I was an agent for 3 months sold 3 properties but it just wasn’t for me. I didn’t enjoy it, good thing it lead me to real estate investing. Now that’s for me that’s how you make real money !
Yeah I rather invest but I don’t have the capital or the credit just yet so real estate will help me understand the game . But investing is my end goal thou
You forgot to mention when a client runs you all over town, doing all of the "leg work", research, etc. and then uses their relative or friend to write the deal up. Another one is when your "friend" buys or sells and uses the listing agent or some stranger to write the deal up.
@@TerryHallGordleyRealtor I live in Florida too but I'm not sure with the situation going on in the country, do you think would be a good idea to get a Real Estate license?
Ive been looking at going to school to become either a interior designer or a real estate agent and after watching this now I KNOW I wanna become a real estate agent!!!! Also love ur channel haha
Wouldn’t a final walk through help with knowing if the seller ever intended to move out? If at the final walk through you still see all the seller’s items in place then probably the title company won’t cut them a check until they move out. I don’t know! Good luck with everything and thank you for all tips!

Thank you so much, Loida. I have to watch this video everytime I feel down. This job is so hardcore, it's really not for everyone.
I just had my first closing yesterday, instead of me being excited I wanted to cry! You are so right get through the next steps and you will level up!!!
Well done, great descriptions of the human condition. As a business owner I’ve had everything from people threatening to kill me, Locking themselves in bathrooms and even one customer hit me with their Toyota Tacoma going 30-40 miles an hour in our parking lot. Assault and battery felony went to prison. Yes at times dealing with the general public will stretch our patience to its limit and beyond.
Awesome video you really do share great and valuable information! I have a question though, how much money would you say someone needs to have saved up just to get started being a real estate agent. Cause this is a business and I know not everyone thinks of it that way but if I’m not making money then I better have money saved up I know for sure. Lol thank you for your help. By the way I like your hair looks gorgeous!👍😎
I’ve heard many stories. I work for a real estate agency but as an IT person. I always thought about trying real estate as a profession but then I’m like not sure I want to put up with all the drama. IT is drama enough for me I think, even though I’m pretty sure if I could do real estate and do well I’d make a lot more money, computers don’t pay like people think unless you’re designing them or a network admin
Love this vid! THIS explains even more why I would never be a real estate agent, I DON'T really like dealing with ppl. Gonna continue driving semi-trucks across country & Canada.
@@LoidaVelasquez yup! Rather deal w/🥶 canada weather then ppl, Keeping up the awesome spirit. You will retire doing it. 😒Oh BTW should have seen my dad's reaction when I mentioned I wanna drive a truck->😡 (long venting) & mom->😂(ah oh ANTOR what ever say).
Had I known the peanuts were unsalted, I would have never become an airline pilot.🤔 I can't wait to join the real estate mayhem....I won't cry or crawl under rocks.....maybe sob, a little😄😄😄 Thanks for your experience!

Any sales for you yet? Any current updates?
I would rather work 12 hours for myself than someone else
Amen!! Working 13 hours for myself where my salary and hours are all within my control, and actually reflect my work, beats the heck out of working 8 hours a day (meaning 13 hours but 5 unpaid) at a company while being miserable.
Amen!
Right me too!
RE is brutal. It’s not a game, you need to be TOUGH to make it.
12 or 13 hours a day and dealing with crazy different personalities? I do that already as a nurse :) I may have a head start 😳

They arent clients, they are called principals.

Nice, congratulations!
CONGRATS!
Hows it going???
This is so true. As a real estate broker, I’ve been encountering a lot of stress but after completing the sale and seeing the joy of the party I’m representing after becomes fulfilling 😊
Yes girl yessss! Love the breakdown and transparency, more people need to understand what they are getting themselves into! So many moving parts in the transactions you are juggling. This business is not for the faint of heart :)
It's true...Too many agents only talk about the good. There are also bad & ugly aspects of the business.
Doesnt sound too different from my current job. In short people are psycho, nothing I already didnt know.
I love your honesty! I think your the only female who is being real, thank you so much! Please do more videos!
Love the breakdown! I’m a Part time agent and real estate can be very stressful but I still love it.

Are u doing good now. ?
Yeah I rather invest but I don’t have the capital or the credit just yet so real estate will help me understand the game . But investing is my end goal thou
thank you so much for being unfiltered !! I am going to try it out and I have an aunt who is an agent that is happy to train me !! ahhh i’m exited
Love how you brand yourself. Those items you wear are so cool and classy!
One thing I can tell you it is NOT easy and Not for the faint of heart.
💯
I watched this video before I got my license, and it's definitely different when you experience it yourself. Crying really does help haha.

Omg. Sounds like classes in mediation and human relations would be helpful.
I decided to be a real estate agent and your video really has help me In my journey to do so, thanks!!!!!

14 hour days? Not bad compared to my army life and trucking life. Looks like I’m ready. Lol
You should make a video about the math side of real estate. B.C. Will definitely copy the idea😀💪
Great points.
I made a video on the pros & cons of real estate also. Definitely enjoy the content you provided.
100% truth. Great video as always Loida
thanks for the video!! I'm still looking forward to start classes.
Love your content. Curious on the example you gave...did the buyers not do the final walkthrough to see it wasn’t empty prior to closings? :)
Thank you so much for reactivating the ladies coaching program!!! Wishing you an early happy birthday too!!!
Thanks for the discouraging first.
It’s more encouraging to me.
Great video! I’m a real estate agent and this video is very informative! Keep ‘me coming! New subscriber here!
Wild story. Did you do a walkthrough the day of the closing in attempt to avoid this seller staying as described?
O my God thank you so much for sharing some of your life experience. This is gold to me
Thats really true , no one tells that truth, thanks for info thats honest
shes such a sweet heart
I am interested in foreign real estate. Thank you for the video.
I love this Loida! I am a new agent and I’m going through this. I would love to be part of the mentorship program.

Going for my real estate license here soon. Love the video and look to watch some more!
Did u make it ?
Hello Loida, I'm just watching this video. Did you ever make your coaching video? I'm new to this business and wanted to learn as much as I can.
Great video. What's the best real estate school to go to?
Hello everyone, this video is extremely helpful but can someone help me with online classes. What’s the best online classes to take in Texas??
You need to be extremely good looking to be selling multi million dollar houses on tv reality shows lol

Great video omg I’m in the training phase and still have a lot of questions. You’re amazing. 😊
Love the point about work hours and consistency. Work it like a job and everything will inevitably fall into place.
Final walkthrough’s are important for making sure your sellers are moved out.. 😂
Thank you Loida!! Your videos have been a huge help to me as a new agent!
