Alongside health, relationships and freedom, one of the most important factors in leading a happy life is a person’s choice of career. What property consultants appreciate is the variety of their day-to-day, as well as that fabulous feeling when they help people’s dreams come true.
Do you sometimes wonder if you’d be happier in another profession? If you have a good instinct for people, like working independently, know how to sell and have a passion for real estate, a sideways move into property consultancy could be the right move for you. Already work in real estate and looking for a new position? Then you can skip points 1 and 2 and go straight to discovering more about the advantages of Engel & Völkers under point 3.
In addition to selling properties, this profession involves a whole host of other activities. You’ll make your clients’ lives easier by taking care of organising viewing appointments and drafting sale contracts. You also look after official paperwork and conduct contract negotiations. At the end of the sales process, you are present for the property handover and continue to advise your client after the sale, too.
Not everyone who is interested in real estate makes a successful estate agent. As well as passion, this occupation also requires people to have a great deal of personal initiative. This is key because in this job the pay is determined not by the number of hours worked, but by the number of sales completed. That means you have freedom in how you divide up your time and you are responsible for your own salary. The advantage of this way of working is that in essence there is no cap on how much you can earn.
Other things you need for being a real estate agent include a very good instinct for clients’ wishes and plenty of empathy. Last but not least, you need to have a knack for negotiating, so that you can broker the best possible price for your clients, which also ensures your own commission fee adds up.
