Practice makes perfect
The author gives us ravens instead of an apprentice or trade master since ravens are clever and industrious.
I have to leave shortly to go to a class for continuing education to keep myself up on the whatever is the newest in real estate or a primer on current applications. Today it is the forms we use. They have this class every year and I go because it is pertinent and I can get a bit casual about filling in the 'blanks.' The thing is they offer it yearly because of all the new agents that come into the profession and they really need to understand these legal binding contracts and they are exactly the ones that don't come.

They younger folks could be paid less, so the agencies thought they were saving money. But what they lost was years of wisdom; you just can't teach that in a weekend class! I agree with you, it takes more than charisma to be in a profession.
ReplyDeleteAgreed. They pinch those pennies a such a loss. Can't see the forest for the trees.
DeleteThis card is also about creativity: to apply what you have learned in your own special way. For that you really need to understand the basics and have more than sufficient experience. Something those youngsters don't have either :)
ReplyDeleteOh my we have so many new agents coming into the market, so many think it is easy quick money. It is challenging work.
