Your First 90 Days as a Real Estate Agent
What to focus on, what to ignore, and how to survive before your first commission.
Published 20 January 2025
Weeks 1โ4: build the base
Learn your patch cold. Know recent sales, current listings, and price points in your core suburbs so you can talk with authority from day one.
Weeks 5โ8: start conversations
Your only job now is volume of contact โ calls, door knocks, and follow-ups. You are not selling; you are becoming known.
Weeks 9โ12: convert momentum
Book appraisals, run buyer inspections, and shadow your senior agents on listing presentations.
Practical tip: Track two numbers daily: conversations had and appraisals booked. Everything else is noise this early.
Summary
- Master your local market before anything else.
- Prioritise contact volume over polish.
- Measure conversations and appraisals, not commission.
