Why are you slamming new agents, you stated that would not hire a new agent with no or little experience. Remember you were once a new agent with no experience, and you wanted the chance to gain experience; to show that you can do just as good a job as anyone else. So why downgrade new agents, by mentioning you wouldn’t hire an inexperienced agent? Sounds like you’re only in it for you.
That's a valid point and I'm glad you brought that up. A few thoughts 1. This video is created for consumers and that's my honest advice to them. Real estate has gotten so complex and so competitive in the last 4 years, I genuinely wouldn't recommend to someone use a brand new Realtor. There are so many established quality Realtors out there that, if you are going to pay a commission, you deserve to get experience with that. 2. If I was advising a brand new Realtor what to do to get clients right now, I would tell them that they need to work 10x as hard as established agents and some people will see that dedication and want to work with them. I wouldn't work with a brand new CPA, Doctor, Attorney, Nutritionist if I'm paying them a 2-3% commission. If you do work with a brand new agent, my advice would be to negotiate as low of a fee as possible knowing that both of you may be learning the process of buying or selling at the same time. If this new agent is part of an established team and you get to work with them and directly with their team leader, that's a different story. Hope this helps!
