Publisher's Synopsis
Thinking about starting a career in real estate? This book will show you what it's really like beyond the open houses and shiny "Sold" signs.
In So You Think You Want to Sell Real Estate, seasoned realtor Michelle Overstreet shares the unfiltered truth about life in the industry. Drawing from over 30 years of hands-on experience, she offers real world lessons, behind the scenes stories, and practical advice for new agents, aspiring professionals, and anyone curious about what it takes to succeed.
This isn't a textbook. It's a candid, personal, and often humorous look at the ups, downs, and surprises of selling homes-from difficult clients and failed escrows to open house disasters and career changing deals.
Inside, you'll discover:
- What most real estate courses don't tell you
- How to survive your first year (and beyond)
- Hard won tips on dealing with buyers, sellers, and brokers
- The emotional and financial realities of being your own boss
- Why passion, persistence, and patience matter more than sales tactics
Whether you're dreaming of a career change, just passed your exam, or already navigating the real estate jungle, this book is the honest, encouraging guide you didn't know you needed.
If you're ready to stop fantasizing and start understanding what real estate is really about, this is your next must read.
