This depends from agent to agent. We’ve had agents make 1-2 deals in the first week and take home $1,500-$2,000. Another example is Maria (one of our agents) started two months ago and has earned $10,000.

Absolutely. We provide you a very intensive training program.

  Do I have to have a college degree?
Not necessarily. But we prefer all our agents to have a college degree.

  How is the work atmosphere?
Fun, friendly and focused. We celebrate birthdays and party at our successes. We work hard and support one another during good times and tough periods. We are professionals who do our best to assist our clients in their needs yet have been able to create a “family” environment at work that makes coming to work a “joy.”
 
Go to Top 
  Am I missing anything?
Yes. A point of caution. 70% of people who get a license do not make it and leave the industry within the first 12 months. It is a sad but true statistic. Why mention this? Because the major reason for failure is “lack of proper training.” We strive to train you extensively as it allows you to compete successfully in the marketplace. The second important reason is your attitude. It is imperative that you have a positive attitude that does not get flustered by rejection or temporary setbacks.
