Between social media and HGTV shows, there are a lot of people who enter real estate thinking this is an easy gig. All you need to do is get licensed and the deals will start rolling in, right? 

Wrong. 

A lot of the individuals who drop out of real estate are the ones who found out it wasn’t as easy as they thought it would be. Or they aren’t doing the right things for long enough. The real estate license is just the beginning - you have to invest in education that truly gives you the competitive advantage. 

If you’re not leveling up your skills and finding a niche, you’re doomed to be the agent who does a transaction here and there until you’re forced to drop out. 

How do real estate instructors know they have a rockstar in the making? Can a real estate license actually do us a disservice? How do we determine a valuable niche to dominate? 

In this episode, we’re joined by a real estate instructor, senior director of market development and broker association liaison at Hogan School of Real Estate, Jenny Hogan-Lizarraga. She shares how to set yourself up for success as early as possible and the mistakes new agents make.
