If there’s a factor that drives real estate’s staggering 87% exit rate, it’s burnout. We’re an industry of hard charging, high achievers, but sometimes that same drive can be the very thing that knocks us out of the business. 

Even the most talented salesperson will fail when they’re running on fumes, so it’s no wonder why a lot of the best agents flame out in less than 5 years. 

This job can be demanding, but let’s be real: a huge part of the burnout real estate agents experience is entirely self-inflicted. We refuse to delegate, say yes to everything, resist leverage and control every aspect of the business, until it starts hurting us. 

The secret to selling more homes isn’t always putting more hours in, it’s actually working less, and focusing on the highest use of our time. What are some of the mindset blocks that keep some agents from experiencing freedom? Why do we have to look ahead in the face of change instead of burying our heads in the sand? How do you sell 80 homes a month without burning out? 

In this episode, we’re joined by top producing agent, coach, author and owner of a top 1% brokerage and Inc. 5000 business, Carin Nguyen. She shares the mentality that has helped her maintain success in real estate for years, and how we should be responding to change in the industry.
