Having a flexible schedule, being your own boss and setting your own rules are compelling reasons for becoming a real estate agent and these rewards can be tremendously motivating.

Most methods of obtaining leads you hear about include:
· Cold calling
· Knocking on doors in a “farming” area
· Mailing lists
· Hosting open houses for co-workers who have listings
· Joining clubs and organizations

These methods can become time consuming, discouraging and expensive, but refuse to give up. Your goal is to ultimately be able to sit by your phone and have leads come to you, of course, but you will need new customers throughout your career and must never stop searching for them.

Regardless of how you acquire them, follow up on every lead and stay focused on your goals. Give it time and don’t give up. Visit www.reagentsclub.com for the most basic and down-to-earth marke
