Have you ever wondered what real estate brokers consider to be common qualities of a successful salesperson? REALTOR® Magazine (April 2010) posed that question to 7 brokers from around the country.
I think the middle of James Bath’s quote that says, “Self-esteem, self-esteem, self-esteem” is spot on. If you don’t believe you can build a successful real estate career then what are your chances? However the variety of comments shows there is no one trait needed that guarantees success. Yes, experience is a common thread but even successful experienced agents started somewhere. That’s why I also think Ty Lacroix mentions a good one = Resilience. Anyway, just thought you might enjoy the quotes…
Here’s to your Success!


I agree. Self esteem is critical. Low self esteem usually hinders you from greater possibilities in life. It is not bad having a low self esteem, but it makes things in life difficult and many times hard to move forward. It’s critical to address these issues if you’re want to maximize your effectiveness in my mind.
