The satisfaction of being able to help a family to achieve their dream home!!

I love meeting new people, and in this job you can certainly meet a lot of people and help them. Paying attention to all the details, why do they sell? why do they buy? A different person who tells you their motivations, their illusions. This allows you to have many contacts.

I am a very restless person so I don't like to sit in a chair, and this job is perfect for me because I have to move around, go out, see properties, go to the notary, go prospecting, take the car and visit a different area every day. I definitely could not stand to be in the office all day.

I got into real estate because I was looking for a stable, long-term career that wasn't the same day on repeat until Fridays. I did a lot of research on different careers, and real estate kept coming up as a solid option with a lot of potential.

Stable? Lol

Tiger Analytics has started firing their new joineers(freshers) as they don't have adequate projects. I don't know where the freshers will go as they haven't done any project as such.

This is just pathetic from organization. They are just firing people owing to failing a test of certification, for which other company gives 3 trials but they are giving only one try with negative markings

I’m having a hard time understanding the salary /TC ranges for mid- to senior-level strategy positions in the Denver area (10-15 YOE). They seem to vary a lot, and are broadly low vs. other markets (mid $100k-low $200k vs TC closer to $300-$400k+ on the coasts). Any observations? Which companies would you look at for more substantial comp outside consulting?

It always seemed like real estate was one of the safest things to invest in. Then the crash of ‘09 happened, and the market bounced back for a while. And now we’re in… whatever this is. It just seems surreal.
