How Do You Stack Up Against the Top Real Estate Agents?

top real estate agent tipsAbout a month ago I did a 2 part post dissecting what the top real estate agents do to be named in the top 5% of all REALTORS.

Continuing in my series on the rich agent vs. the poor agent I have prepared a really good survey and set of statistics to enlighten you even more as to what exactly the top agents are doing to have achieved this level of success.

Many of my real estate coaching clients know "what" they want from their real estate business but most don't know the specifics of what they need to attain in order to reach those goals. The data in this post will be a great measuring post for you to determine what areas you need to work on to reach your own goals.

So if you are ready to stop living small and want to start gaining momentum in your business and personal life and experience the quantum leap the top 5% in this industry have experienced, then this bit of information should really shed some light on your journey to the top!
