Here's 5 top life hacks that really help me as an estate agent. Have you got any you'd share?
I conducted a poll on LinkedIn in December asking it it sounded right that some Self Employed Estate Agency Models warmly welcomed new recuits without any property experience.
'Estate Agency experience is overrated' they say...
I'm not having any of it and these operators should be avoided.
If you love the idea of being an estate agent and the idea of running your own agency is alluring, go work in a reputable, independent high street agency. You'll learn a lot more and faster, get a real taste for the job and even get paid whilst you're there!

I ran a poll on LinkedIn asking how big a drop in property values must there be for the word 'CRASH' to be used?

According to my recent LinkedIn poll, almost 40% of estate agents believe agents should never charge upfront fees. Almost a quarter admit to believing they probably should and just 28% are already in the habit of charging.
Just 10% say client's in their area would never agree to paying an upfront fee.
Recession. It's on the way.
It'll be bad news for many estate agents but unquestionably create opportunities for the industry's best and most adaptable agents.
All estate agents of late will have found themselves in a 'best and final' bids situation with offers pouring in left, right and centre.
But do you give buyers a gentle nudge in the right direction or prefer a 'computer says no approach', remain tight lipped and give nothing away?
Hear my thoughts after my 'best and finals' on two properties last week.
