I am 20 years old and currently a realtor. I will keep my story brief because I can only type so much.

I started working with remax 08/06. I was VERY motivated! I got 2 listings after 2 months. My manager told me to give her half of the comission because she was going to help, I accepted. I had both houses in escrow by Jan, and I noticed that she would never help me when I asked her too. I started getting mad because after all she was getting half. I went through escrow on my own on both transactions, and things went well. I decided that I wasnt going to give her half of my commision, since she did not help me. I gave her $500 for helping me before with some paperwork. She really killed my motivation around jan-feb 07. I left companies and joined century 21 04/07.

I have no been able to get myself together since I left! I dont know what happen to me. I just feel like the fire in me isnt their. I have not been to training since I started with century 21.How can i motivate myself
I went from being the top agent from the new salespersons to nothing. I also feel like im too young at times. Should I wait, finish school and then get back into realestate? I am confused!
it really has nothing to do with money. I live at home. my split is a little better at c21. I find it very hard to get back on track. I got all my business cards, for sale signs ready. I just find it hard starting all over again.

At your age and with your experience, you should consider being an agent full-time unless you are living at home w/ the 'rents or have some other form of financial support.

You may also not be motivated because with ReMax you were getting a 100% commission minus office fees. I am guessing that C21 is taking 50% of your commissions. Perhaps the money is not as motivating combined with the significant decline in the market this = a lack of motivation.

If you think the money may be the issue, I would recommend looking into Exit Realty. They offer you 70% commission from the day you walk in the door. I only do real estate part-time for friends and family which is why I chose Exit. That extra 20% goes a long way and you don't have the fees you get with ReMax so you can push low volumes and still make good money!
