Secret Life of a Realtor


A recent article from Inman News by Seth Price reveals some interesting numbers about the life of a Realtor. Several of the stats really surprised me and others were expected.
Did you know that:
  • The median age for Realtors is 57, up from 56 last year. (Where are the young agents?)

  • 58% of agents said they spend most of their work hours in the office. (Not showing homes or previewing?)

  • 19% said they do not formally measure their performance in any way. (How am I doing?)

  • 49% work 40 hours or more, 22% work 30 hours or less. ( Which one are you?)

I expected that most agents spend their money on their transportation and worship technology, and they count their smart phone as their number one techno tool.
Did you know that 78% of agents were on the job six months or more before they could support themselves financially? No wonder the agents are older, young people want jobs that pay the bills... right now!
What do you think?
