You want to be your own boss
If you want to set your own schedule, grow your own business and build your own sales network, selling real estate is ideal for you. If you have an entrepreneurial spirit and are driven to get your own leads and close deals, real estate can be the perfect choice.

Challenges excite you
A down market, a home with no curb appeal or time restrictions or limitations get your blood flowing.

You’re persistent and flexible

You have a positive outlook
