Episode 6: The Reality of a Realty Career

Darci Gillespie is in the top half-a-percent of Washington realtors, and boy, is she tired.

Well, "busy," anyway. 

For those who think real estate is a great way to make a lot of money without having to work very hard or very long, Darci would like to give you a realty reality check.

It's a great and rewarding career, but "easy" it ain't.

In this episode Scout Real Estate owner Jennifer Nelson and Washington realtor Darci Gillespie give beginning agents a bit of a wake-up call about the work and the biz.

"Think of it as a full-time job," Darci says. You need to have a plan and self-discipline to make it work. Explore all the opportunities, take advantage of the advantages. Network, connect with other realtors, show up, go to the office, and find a mentor.
