Selling Real Estate really takes the right Realtor!  Yes there are agents that come and go, make promises that can't be kept, inexperienced with the internet and really lack the knowledge of marketing properties on a regular basis to maximize exposure. So how do you get it across to home owners that it's not just about hiring an agent that cuts commission and tells you your home is worth more then it really is!  I hope that the good that will come out of this market is that the inexperienced agents will not survive!  The real victims are the homeowners who have trusted the wrong agent and listed $20,000 plus more then their value and now lost a year plus 60,000 plus by using the wrong person to sell their home! Janet Larsen will not let you down.  I have the knowledge, the experience, a... 10/11/2008

In a crazy market like this, the best thing to do is keep your nose to the grindstone.  Instead of throwing your hands in the air and crying, do something about it.  There are still agents making money. It doesn't matter how long you have been in the business.  I know agents who have been doing this for less than 3 years and they are killing it.  that's because they never stopped working. I have learned a very important lesson recently. The lesson is, never stop working. Pick a realistic goal and strive to make it. don't be afraid to talk about your goals either.  Tell everyone you know. It will help keep you accountable.  Treat this business like AT&T, Reach out and touch someone. 10/10/2008
