It seems to me that when times are tough in real estate that this would be a good time to get into the business. After all, if you can make a living in this environment, when times are good again, you could make tons of money.

Nobody learns much during good times. It’s the hard times that offers the lessons.

Here endeth the lesson. :)

Great! So I’m going back to my old profession of game room and snack consultant for dot.coms!

It would be a better time to try establish a small local agency. The ones in it for the fast buck clear out making some room, and if you’re real lucky one of the older established ones retire and sell out.

My 1st year in the business (1978), mortgage rates were 11% to 13% fixed.

Ignorance was indeed bliss...as I was "Rookie of the Year" in my Board of Realtors.
