Have you Ever Thought About a Career in Real Estate?
Posted by Eileen Schwartz | Leave A Comment »
There has never been a better time to join the real estate industry and start a highly successful career. Depending on which article you read you will hear the market it great or the market is the worst ever and both article can be in the same paper and even on the same page. The reality is however that our local market here in North San Diego is a stable market, we may have a bit more of a dip in prices in specific areas however, the market time as well as the prices have been pretty consistent over the past several months. Interest rates are at all time lows and the prices are 20%-50% less than they were 5 years ago. Many market trend forecasters are predicting that we will see more transactions this year however they don’t believe we will not see much movement on the values going way up or way down.
So in addition to the market becoming stable and all time low interest rates there are a few other reasons that this is the best time to join the industry…
- There is much less competition these days – there has been a large decline of active real estate agents in the industry. Many agents have kept their license and board memberships active however they are no longer actively selling real estate.
- Good Brokers are offering more training opportunities than ever before – Brokers understand to compete in the market today your agents must be skilled at a very high level so they need to be offering agents high caliber training systems to give them the edge in todays economy
- The market is not in a frenzy meaning you have more time to learn the business the right way so you can be successful in any economy. If you learn how to do business in a tough economic economy you can do business anytime.
- The true professionals are the agents that are left in the market today, so you can learn from the best on what it take to be successful. Find a broker that has a mentor program that includes highly successful and productive mentors for you to align with for your first few transactions.
So if you are considering a career in real estate there has never been a better time to join us and start a career that can last a lifetime. To find out if you have what it takes try our free online real estate assessment. It is a fun and interactive simulator in fact there are three different option choose one or all assessments.

Posted by Eileen Schwartz | Leave A Comment »
Real Living Lifestyles is sponsoring Mike Ferry from the Mike Ferry Organization on June 10th from 9:30-12:30 in Carlsbad at the Carlsbad Dove Library Theater.

Mike has been a Trainer and Coach for Top Real Estate Agents all over the country for the past 25+ years and Real Living Lifestyles has Mike coming to present a special training for their agents and local agents in the community.
Real Living Lifestyles Management has made a decision for the past several years to make an investment in our agents by becoming a member of the Executive Management Program at the Mike Ferry Organization. We take the education of our agents very seriously. As the Director of Training & Education I am proud to say that our agents also feel staying educated is very important. In fact last year our agents, through the Executive Management Program at the Mike Ferry Organization participated in over $100,000 worth of training and the company picked up the tab. Our agents are entrusted with what is normally our clients most valuable asset “their home” and it is of the utmost of importance that we are sure we do everything we can to represent them to the best of our ability, and keeping our agents educated is a big part of that commitment to our clients.
People continually ask us how have we had such great growth numbers over the past several years in one of the worst economies ever, and how are we opening offices and expanding 50% of our offices and we say” It is because of our people”! We are fortunate to be surrounded by our highly professional agents and broker associates here at Real Living Lifestyles (Formally Exclusive Properties* Exclusive Properties) that go above and beyond for their buying and selling clients. Our culture breeds success and it shows in not only our agents but the testimonials we receive from our clients about how well they have been served.
Our goal is also to reach out to the rest of the real estate community and offer educational opportunities as well. If you are an agent that would like to attend this event please call our office at 760-931-6111 ask for Cheri and let her know you would like to attend and she will add you to the RSVP list for this Mike Ferry Event on June 10th.
