The sad truth about the real estate business is that it is ridiculously
easy to get a real estate license in the State of Maryland. Here
are the requirements
for a real estate salesperson license in Maryland. Most companies
will hire or affiliate any person who meets these minimum requirements
for a license. Unfortunately, there are far too many inexperienced,
nasty, lazy and incompetent real estate licensees in Maryland. The
level of service provided by many agents and companies deteriorated
as the number of licensees ballooned several years ago. Our company
has taken a different approach. We will only affiliate good, experienced
agents with service oriented attitudes. The only time we bring on
a new licensee is when one of our experienced agents hires a personal
assistant to work underneath them.
Because we offer one of the best environments for real estate agents
to earn, we get many applicants. We typically turn down about 50%
of the agents that apply to affiliate with our company. Why? We
believe an agent's past is usually indicative of their future and
we won't take chances on people we think may not fit in to our culture.
All of our Sales Associates are serious about the real estate business
and demonstrate their sincerity and committment to the real estate
business by paying office fees to Real Estate Professionals, Inc.
every month. Compare this to the typical real estate company where
part time agents dabble in the business.
