To have a successful real estate career, you need to have a profitable business. The best way to do that is by having a coach or mentor show you the way.
Join RE/MAX Professionals
Today I’m excited to discuss the importance of hiring a mentor as a real estate professional. I found my mentor over 30 years ago while attending my first real estate conference. Over the years, I’ve had many mentors and they’ve changed the way I’ve done business, handled my finances, and lived my life. If you don’t already have a mentor, you need to be looking for one.
Start in your community. Find a Realtor who is doing the type of business you want to do and reach out to them. Invite them out to lunch or coffee to have a discussion and maybe answer a few questions. You can meet a lot of different types of Realtors in different types of businesses and learn a little from each of them.
The next level of mentoring is hiring a coach. There are a lot of coaches out there who can help keep you accountable to your goals. I’ve had three or four of them in my career and they have each taught me something valuable.

The best thing you can learn from a coach or mentor is how to run your business in a profitable manner. I’ve seen Realtors work hard their entire career and have to work well into their retirement age because they didn’t have a financial plan or put any money away. Being successful in real estate is not about how many homes you sell; it’s about the bottom line. It’s about what you net. A good coach will help you increase that net.
If you have any questions for me or want more information about real estate coaching or mentorship, give me a call or send me an email. I would love to hear from you. You’re also welcome to join our team’s weekly training call at any time. I can give you more info on that too. I look forward to hearing from you soon.
