Job Description
Real estate agents act as a direct line of contact for potential homeowners. They might give tours to clients interested in purchasing a home, act as liaison between buyer and seller, and help to establish a list of competitive prices for their clients. As a real estate agent, you'll need strong communication skills, as well as charisma and a natural rapport with people. It's important to note a key difference between real estate agents and brokers; brokers can operate their own businesses, while agents must work directly with a broker
