@@linusfx2366 I’m sorry for your plight my friend but i was once in your shoes before i was recommended to Mr James and thats how i passed My real estate exam
The best investment one can do right now is investing on real estate though stocks are good but ever since I swapped to real estate, I've seen so much difference.
Being a real estate agent is literally a business so there’s lots of expenses and it’s not easy I already had all this in mind but still knew I could do it just have a positive mindset!
My friend referred me to these guys th-cam.com/video/egrha7haLNs/w-d-xo.html and they helped with my real estate proctored exam. I recommend that you check them out
Kayla, this is one of the most relevant videos I've seen, especially for new agents. The beginning is tough as is this business but over time, you'll learn how to navigate through and find what works for YOU! I've been in it for 19 years and some days are definietly harder than others, STILL. You have to find your niche. Be yourself and you'll attract clients that you WANT to work with. The fact that you recognized this so early on is amazing!!! You got this!!! Keep at it girl.
Love that Statement “Save up keep your part time job in the beginning cuz it’s expensive or ugh..jus be poor and sad when you start, That’s what I did🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣”
the crypto market is on ablaze and yet i still hear a lot of sayings like "what's bitcoin?" this only goes to show how much people are still yet to embrace the digital assets, meaning there is a high probability of more price burst in the nearest future. according to experts, more than half of the world percentage are yet to embrace crypto currency and we have billions going round in digital forms. Like konxx Eleanor used to tell me, the charts are the tools to make wealth when properly utilized, that has guided me in my trading career although am still getting my grip around studying the market. i make use of signals and strategies from experts and service providers. i find signals as a good substitute to self-analyze and i have built my trading portfolio using signals to almost $400k but still i find myself wanting more. thanksfully we still have smaller assets to buy such as btt,xrp,doge,ada etc. i find the services of Konxx Elearnor close to that of a mentor. her services are or whatsap +1.9.1.0.2.3.9.4.3.2.1
I’m 19 and about to get my license. I’ll be starting in august once I finish up with my current job. I’m unbelievably nervous but this answered almost every thought I had in my head about becoming an agent
I passed the first time and it is very easy you just have to study. Just like any other test. Beginning in real estate is very expensive. Typically you need to be doing deals for 3 yrs before you are competent. Best to get a mentor to help. I have been an agent for 20 yrs and I have had clients judge me for looking professional. Dress matters but it doesn’t have to be a suit. The people in the office you work with make all the difference. Not bad you don’t own a house but going through the buying process yourself really opens your eyes to things you don’t realize until to go through it yourself
And the market is wayyyyy different as well as clients. I could sell the crap out of a vegan sandwich even if im not vegan, so just cuz you dont own a home doesnt mean u cant sell one or “open your eye”.
Would you suggest starting as an assistant so that you get actual experience seeing how people do this job? Been looking into this and it just seems crazy to get a license and then suddenly jump in with no prior experience.
I loved this video! While I’m a bit older (43 lol) my struggle with self esteem has really kept me stuck. I appreciate your candid thoughts vs reality and all you’ve expressed. I hope you’re still pushing though in real estate & hope you could post more videos regarding your experiences. 💜
My friend referred me to these guys th-cam.com/video/egrha7haLNs/w-d-xo.html and they helped with my real estate proctored exam. I recommend that you check them out
You are definitely not alone. I failed both the first time. Passed the state portion the second time and finally passed the national the third time. And you’re right, no one ever talks about the upfront costs and the extreme hustling you have to do. Great video and thanks for being transparent!
This video is so good!! I was in the SAME boat! Some of the most basic questions go unanswered on the internet about being an agent. They’re all about scripts and contracts and whatever. Which is all good- but no one talks about the absolute basics! I love how you even said you went out and bought blazers and realized you didn’t need them. I did that too! Great video girl.
Blazers, too funny… I purchased a couple for interview; however, I plan to be business/Presentable/casual; Dr. Martens will be my foot gear… no uncomfortable stilettos for me🙂
Living in NewZealand and been in the game for a few years now, and thought everyone finding this video useful should also know that this is COMPLETELY RELEVANT for us kiwis over here on the other side of the world. It's crazy how similar this industry is all around the world! :D
Of all the real estate experience videos; this was the most down to earth/ raw I’ve seen!! I’m currently pursuing my license, and this was much needed and even more appreciated❤️
“The best agents are the agents that are kind & know their stuff” 👏 Yes yes yes!! I just got my license and this is absolutely how I want to direct my persona as an agent. Thank you for this video (:
Yes, yes, Yes!!! I wish I would've found this video so much sooner! Everything you mention is so true. I also had the same expectations and reality checks. I love that you address all of this and validate everything. I quit my job to pursue real estate and I found very quickly how expensive it is LOL. I have been struggling a lot recently with motivation and growing my sphere. I am so happy to have gotten the opportunity to watch this and learn that everything I have felt is completely normal. Goodluck to you! and anyone else pursuing real estate!
No, I did not get tired of you! I appreciate your video! You have been doing this now for 4 years and I am sure you are 4 times as great! I am a student and am getting ready to take the GA exam in August! Wish me luck! But as your video states, if I do not pass then I know to never give up!
Kayla! I just found your channel and I love your first video!! Very helpful information. And I appreciate your transparency. Thank you for your honesty and good humor! 🤗
Thank you for such a genuine video! You have a wonderful personality. I’m a new middle aged female agent and totally related to your “expectations”. Being tech savvy and using social media is a must to promote your biz. Great success to you and all watching your videos.
Thank you for addressing that you don't have to fit a stereotype! I have been stressing over that very thing since I started studying for this exam. It's music to my ears to hear you affirm this! Great video :) thank you! -soon to be signed agent.
I’m in Dallas and I have a wonderful brokerage. All virtual and no commission split. I was worried that since there was no commission then I would be compromising my training. I have not been disappointed!! I love them.
Yes! Everyone knows Somone in real estate. I was shocked I didn't have people coming at me to help them. Yr 1= wrote 6 offers. Won 1 home. 24/7 marketing job. 5000$ in the hole with fees and such. This was great info. 👍I feel like in not alone in how my experience had been.
Hi Kayla! Thanks for sharing this video. I took my real estate exam a few months ago and failed. I've been so reluctant to try again (afraid of failing a 2nd time). However, watching your video gave me all the encouragement I needed. Thanks again! Best of luck to you! 🙂
You will pass I failed three times before I passed the key is first study all your vocabulary terms, after you no the vocab, then you can apply it to what the question is asking you. Practice test also help a lot
Can you please do a video on the final exam and what to expect, I’m currently taking my real estate courses and I’d really appreciate it if you went over the types of questions asked and how to best prepare myself, also I love your personality!!😭😭
probally the most honest video i have ever seen. these were all my expectations TOO. i didn't start though. its good learning from other peoples mistakes than your own.
New sub here. THANK YOU SO MUCH for this video! I’m taking my pre licensing courses. This is the exact info I was looking for and wanted to know. You are such an inspiration and we totally have the same style. You’re so informative and I would love to stay connected on social media. Wishing you the best success. -Megan (Reno, NV)
This video was very informative! I'm in the process of getting my license in Texas. Thank you for your insight on the Realtor experience. I wish you the best of luck in your career endeavors!
i love how real and straight to the point this is.. already know this is going to be a whole journey but i was thinking just like u said in the beginning lol it wasnt until i saw what was on that test that i started taking it all seriously...
Great video! You touched on a lot of myths. Real estate sales isn't a "traditional" career so requires a change in mindset for most new practitioners. Wishing you the best in your new career!
Kayla, I am getting ready to take my state exam and found you online discussing things that I have been wondering about and I want to thank you for sharing your experience. I am a young 70 year old and have a facebook, instagram and pinterest page so I get what you are saying about working with people who have some knowledge about techy stuff. I really liked your suggestion about sitting in on a staff meeting to see if these peeps are who you want to do business with. I also liked what you said about being genuine and kind. Good luck in your career, I can tell you love it and you have inspired me to keep on going in this endeavor.
Wow, that is super accurate, I agree with all the things you said. This should be required watching for anyone BEFORE they even sign up for RE School. I had a dad who was in RE for 35 years so I saw alot of these things through him, but I hate when someone tells me that I have an easy job and that Realtors are just making money hand over fist all the time . UGH It's hard, it takes serious dedication all the time and you have to learn to pivot with each different market. So is it easy? NO! Is it rewarding? Yes! Is it for everyone? NO WAY! From a seasoned Realtor to you, I think you have a great attitude and you get the things that will make you great- Always put your clients first. You are going to rock it, and I have lots of confidence in you! Thanks for sharing!
im currently 13 turning 14 in June next year & I’ve honestly been really thinking about being an real estate agent & not just because the pay but I honestly think i could handle the struggles with me being with an team and we persevere & support and help each other when needed .
I’m watching your video two years later and the “be broke and sad like me” made me giggle. I am currently interviewing as a new agent and the issues I’m finding is that I want to keep my full time job to offset expenses while I grow my business and most brokerages look down on that.
damn, that was my plan too. guess we have to work extra hours to save up money and switch to a part time job at some point. or find that understanding broker...
Great Vlogger! Honest and real. Very relatable. Good or bad I would love to see an update video from you. Ideas: how to get listings? How are you allocate your time. How many houses you sold your first year and what you learned? How much you made in your first year to your second? If you quit why did you quit? Over 8000 views on a channel with less than 300 subscribers means you were on to something. If you continue to do the honest realistate thing over a year you would start to see some numbers and make money but it’s hard to keep going. Anyway thank you for the video. You are a likable person. Best of luck.
Excellent video, Kayla! You've answered so many of my questions. It was so informative. I love that you're down to earth and genuine. I truly believe you'll be very successful!
Best video thus far for new real estate agents.. I love it.. it has given me a new outlook on my new career . Thank you. I needed this. I'm saving it!! ❤
Thank you SO much for this, it was so raw and real, I love your perspective about how being kind and working hard is all that matters, not meeting the "standards" of a female agent!
I love this. I am studying for my exam currently and this is so helpful. I’m very nervous about the test and that’s just the first of my worries. I am trying to network with other agents but they aren’t really getting back with me. I’m trying to figure out what brokerage to go to!
My biggest struggle so far has just been confidence talking to people that are older than me that have bought more homes than I’ve sold. I find myself looking stuff up like “tank vs tankless water heater” every day lol
I passed my exam the first time and in half the time. CA Realty is a good program I suggest yall pay for the practice exam that’s really where I learned the most.
Hey Kayla! gives us an update of your journey! im going to get my real estate license very soon and I was looking for a realistic video like this! Thank you!
Thank you so much for speaking openly and honestly about your struggles within the industry. I’m scheduled to take the test for the first time at the end of the month and hearing you mention that most people have to take the test multiple times helped to ease a lot of the anxiety and pressure around my expectations.
Literally just feel like I just listen to myself LOL I can relate so much! Just got my license this past year and officially signed with a brokerage in August and I could not agree more with every single thing that you said! Love your video love your personality wishing you so much success!!
Thank you so much for this! I just started taking my real estate online classes and I am super excited. You made things a lot more clear to me about this profession.
I’m considering real estate I have my associates degree in business but the bachelors degree is just way too much here in Maryland thanks so much for the video it was totally helpful and genuine ❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥
This is all the exact things I need to hear. People make it sound so easy to get in and then you start making money but don’t realize how much money you have to put int to gain in return
As a Washington State native (Lynnwood) GO HAWKS!!! I moved to Ohio not to long ago and started the process to get my real estate license out here, and I really enjoyed your video! You talked about a lot of things I haven't seen in other videos and boosted my confidence with your realism of the job so, thank you!
So much value in this video and I loved hearing about your experience in your first year. I totally hear you on "fitting the stereotype" but appearance definitely does not make an agent. Being yourself is the best move! New to your channel and looking forward to watching more :)
BEST VIDEO EVER! You are a very observant individual and you will be saving me a lot of time & money with your tips. I’m planning around the challenges you said I will 99% face. I had conceptions like the ones you’ve mentioned but you told me how its different getting started than I thought.
Kayla!! Thank you for making this video!! I am starting classes tomorrow and had a lot of the same expectations you had. I met with a couple of brokerages already and know where I am going once licensed!
Kayla, thank you very much..this is the longest real estate TH-cam video I've watched and never got bored or tempted to skip....don't know why you've been uploading videos for a few years....Hope you're fine?
Honestly thank you so much, I want to start but the stuck up, suit wearing, keeping up with the joneses attuite just isn't appealing to me. So I'm glad to know that I can do it my way.
Ayyyye I’m in WA and my name is Kayla 😄. Thanks for the vid! I’m 20 hours into schooling for my license. I’m looking forward to hitting the ground running on this new career path! 🙌🏼
I'm not sure what state you're in but in Texas commissions are 100% negotiable. 3% is insane. I would start at 12 and work my way down, at 3% I'm basically paying for my career instead of being paid.
They say third times a charm, am officially a real estate broker 🎉🎉 for all my repeat test takers don't give up and don't be discouraged
You will pass everyone has their own season, just keep going pray and believe you will receive

And the market is wayyyyy different as well as clients. I could sell the crap out of a vegan sandwich even if im not vegan, so just cuz you dont own a home doesnt mean u cant sell one or “open your eye”.

Thanks Kayla! You were so transparent and honest. You did a great job! I now feel wayyy better about this new journey after watching your video 💛💛💛💛
My biggest struggle so far has just been confidence talking to people that are older than me that have bought more homes than I’ve sold. I find myself looking stuff up like “tank vs tankless water heater” every day lol
I passed my exam the first time and in half the time. CA Realty is a good program I suggest yall pay for the practice exam that’s really where I learned the most.
You’re awesome . Straight to all points I really enjoyed listening to you explain everything. Thank you
Hey Kayla! gives us an update of your journey! im going to get my real estate license very soon and I was looking for a realistic video like this! Thank you!
Thank you so much for speaking openly and honestly about your struggles within the industry. I’m scheduled to take the test for the first time at the end of the month and hearing you mention that most people have to take the test multiple times helped to ease a lot of the anxiety and pressure around my expectations.
Looking into becoming a real estate agent and I got to say, this video actually helped me alot.
Thank you for this video! So realistic! The point you made about it being easier to get business is EXACTLY what I thought! Definitely not reality!
Starting my first day of class January 3rd I’m super excited thank you for sharing
Literally just feel like I just listen to myself LOL I can relate so much! Just got my license this past year and officially signed with a brokerage in August and I could not agree more with every single thing that you said! Love your video love your personality wishing you so much success!!
Thank you so much for this! I just started taking my real estate online classes and I am super excited. You made things a lot more clear to me about this profession.
Great job!!! I forwarded to a friend who’s thinking of getting her license! Great job as the first TH-cam video too! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I’m considering real estate I have my associates degree in business but the bachelors degree is just way too much here in Maryland thanks so much for the video it was totally helpful and genuine ❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥
I totally agree. The first couple of years are hard. Stick with it and get 1% better every day.
This is such a great video!!! Thank you for this I know it’s 2 years old but the information still applies!
This is all the exact things I need to hear. People make it sound so easy to get in and then you start making money but don’t realize how much money you have to put int to gain in return
I love how honest you are !
How is your real estate journey going now ?
As a Washington State native (Lynnwood) GO HAWKS!!! I moved to Ohio not to long ago and started the process to get my real estate license out here, and I really enjoyed your video! You talked about a lot of things I haven't seen in other videos and boosted my confidence with your realism of the job so, thank you!
So much value in this video and I loved hearing about your experience in your first year. I totally hear you on "fitting the stereotype" but appearance definitely does not make an agent. Being yourself is the best move! New to your channel and looking forward to watching more :)
Hello
BEST VIDEO EVER! You are a very observant individual and you will be saving me a lot of time & money with your tips. I’m planning around the challenges you said I will 99% face. I had conceptions like the ones you’ve mentioned but you told me how its different getting started than I thought.
What an honest human being! Thank you, you are God sent, I needed to hear this
Keep being you.... Appreciate you sharing your experience! Gratitude!
this felt like I was talking to a friend, great job explaining what people want to know!
Same.
Kayla!! Thank you for making this video!! I am starting classes tomorrow and had a lot of the same expectations you had. I met with a couple of brokerages already and know where I am going once licensed!
Congrats on being 1 year in the business. Sending you much success in your second year!
Kayla, thank you very much..this is the longest real estate TH-cam video I've watched and never got bored or tempted to skip....don't know why you've been uploading videos for a few years....Hope you're fine?
Finding the brokerage with the right vibe was the hardest part for me.
I am so happy I came across your video. Everything you explained was exactly what I was looking to here!!
1. Kind
2.knowledgeable
3. Put their clients first (fiduciary duties)
4. Don’t have to have a certain look
taking my salesperson exam on december 1st !!!! im ready
Love this video. You should keep them coming!
Thank you for sharing your insight, your advice, and your cute quirky character!! This excites me to get my real estate license!
Honestly thank you so much, I want to start but the stuck up, suit wearing, keeping up with the joneses attuite just isn't appealing to me. So I'm glad to know that I can do it my way.
Loved this honest video laying out expectations vs reality. Your personality is so much fun and enjoyed it. Great video!
Ayyyye I’m in WA and my name is Kayla 😄. Thanks for the vid! I’m 20 hours into schooling for my license. I’m looking forward to hitting the ground running on this new career path! 🙌🏼
I’m so thankful for this video. I just passed my test and I definitely needed this reality check!
not you “ucking “ at me 😂😂 jk loved this
I'm not sure what state you're in but in Texas commissions are 100% negotiable. 3% is insane. I would start at 12 and work my way down, at 3% I'm basically paying for my career instead of being paid.
Kayla's reaction every morning when she walks by my office and sees me. 2:37
Charlie Carr HAHAHA accurate.
“Just be poor and sad when you first start” 😂😂😂 that was me
This was very helpful!! You answered questions I've had and cleared up some blurry details. Thank you!
