Changes breed Challenges

I am guilty of not updating my blog for a long while.

There were a lot of changes in the last couple of months, especially in the agency I was in association with. There was a business re-structuring exercise and all commission-based agents were asked to leave and look for another agency. That was in late April. (*How ironic, here I am as self-employed realtor and yet I was retrenched! Something is not right in this picture)

So off we(my buddies & I) went from agency to agency to find out the commission structure, support from the agency, frequency of training... etc and the office enviornment. So after 2 weeks and much deliberation, we finalised our decision and signed up to be associate of HSR International Realtor Pte Ltd.

So what are the pull factors? HSR strength lies in project marketing. As we can see in the market, more and more projects are launched each week. By targeting to the primary market, we are also helping ourselves to build up our secondary market (or resale) listings. So this will cut down our effort to source or solicit for resale listings.

The on-going daily training programs makes it attractive for new recruits. Hence my recruitment will be made easier. All these trainings are free! And are open to all agents, experience or not.

So with these and many other pull factors, I am sure my buddies and I will make more money in real estate. Cheers!
