I just read a members only post that discussed the fact that our national real estate memberships have fallen throughout the country. I interpret this fact as a benefit to broker/owners; an advantage to the agents who are surviving; a plus for those hiring agents to represent them; and a total cleansing of our profession.
Each of those categories has received a great benefit from agents falling through the cracks. If an agent has been treading water because that agent has not taken the time or interest to create a plan of attack to survive in this challenging market, the agent should be eliminated.
For those who think business will fall into their laps, they are greatly mistaken. Many agents were on a free ride during the glory days. Many agents could sell a home and make money without knowing what they were doing. Many agents should not have been in this profession from day one.
The market always takes care of the issues that people can’t seem to grasp. This is a business that is not for everyone. The market has taken that statement and made it come to fruition. The market has completed what many broker/owners failed to do. The market has eliminated the agents who should not have been working in the real estate business initially. There is always a positive to every negative, and the declining market has been a positive in filtering out many, but when the market rallies, "they'll be back."
