"If you need it sold, call Kim."

LOL 20 years in Marketing and Sales, I love when people brag about being in sales (I personally am a salesman) and try to make it sound so complicated by adding titles like "marketing" and "account executive". Christ you call people up and tell them to give you money, anyone can do it.
People who brag about being in sales or marketing pretty much are not successful at all. So to answer your question no it isn't as good as it sounds, much much worse. -
its not it's

Kim sells em, Race takes em away.

Honestly if you can hold a conversation well with strangers then you will be fine, it really isn't a skill. Still can make decent money doing it though.RoadDawg55 said:

I had a house in Tucson that I waited too long to sell, I was sitting on it during the real estate hayday and watching the value go up. And then...the market crashed. I drove down and met with a woman who was recommended. She had 25 years experience and knew what the hell she was talking about. She had contractors lined up for any repair or remodel work needed done, she had buyers who were referred to her. The whole ball of wax. With half a dozen foreclosed homes I was competing against, she sold my house and it was closed and put to bed in three weeks. There are salesmen and then there are professional salesmen, and there is a difference.

Steps to becoming a successful real estate agent:
1. Learn your wine. Cabs that drink like merlot sound fancy and make you look smart.
2. Tips and tricks. For example, pretend to accidentally leave your jacket at someone's house or office. Gives you an excuse to go back there.
3. Profile photo. Hold a football and wear a tie.
4. ????
5. Profit. -
First review is in! Funny as fuck! What a great week for this bored!
I moved here from California in 2007 and was looking for a nice 3 BD, 2 BA house in Renton. After hearing about Mr. Grinolds from some co-workers, I called him up. We met at Starbucks over a banana, and I knew after about 5 minutes of talking with Mr. Grinolds that he lived up to his reputation as being very knowledge-able and experienced.
After a few showings, I found the house of my dreams in Renton, near my job. I had a few doubts before offering, mostly regarding my unease the market. I was wary, but Mr. Grinolds assured me that the housing market is only going to continue going up and in about 5 years I should be able to see a 50% increase in value on my house. Awesome, a real estate agent who has the market dialed in!
A few months later after a successful purchase, the bubble burst and I lost everything. I was angry at first, but Mr. Grinolds calmed me down and I now know that his assurance that the market going up was only what he was hearing. Clearly I needed to learn the difference. Despite living on the streets of Kent and using Starbucks wifi to write this review, I learned a valuable lesson thanks to Mr. Grinolds. I would recommend him to anyone.
