Fell out of love with real estate. The more I'm in this industry, the more I realize most people are looking to make a buck instead of helping their clients.

I think it is the basis of all work, isn't it?

I don't think it's a vocational job, but if you understand the rhythm, you can do very well.

I think it depends on the agency. In my agency we tend to be in constant training to support clients in the best possible way.

I'm sorry to hear that you feel that way about the real estate industry. It can be frustrating when it seems like everyone is out for themselves, but there are plenty of agents who are truly dedicated to helping their clients.

Yeah I'd say that's pretty common. Are you surprised people work for money?

I, for one, like to help my clients move their money from their bank accounts to mine, so I feel like I get to do both the things you mentioned haha

I think if you want to help people, you can probably find opportunities for that in the non-profit sector. Some of your skills should be transferable and can be applied to better causes

This is not always the case, but real estate can be a cutthroat business. Sometimes you just gotta look out for yourself

what's wrong with wanting to make a buck? We all got bills no?
