Attend Real Estate Events

What better way to meet new clients than by attending real estate events. Programs such as housing fairs bring together property seekers, real estate developers and agents all under one roof. This is an opportunity to meet potential clients.

Network and Build Partnerships

Networking and building partnerships with other agents are very important to the success of one's real estate career. Some agents can refer clients to you when they know that you will be in a better position to help the clients.

Many agents help refer clients to one another and split commissions with them. This is a great way to make some money on the side even when your properties are not being rented out as fast as you would want them.
