Now that things are starting to show signs of slowing down, what do new agents need to know? What’s the most crucial piece of advice you can offer them?

New to the industry? Get started with everything you need to know about the early decisions that’ll shape your career, including choosing a brokerage, learning your market, creating an online presence, budgeting, getting leads, marketing listings and so much more. If you’re a team leader or broker-owner, New Agent Month will be jam-packed with resources to help your new hires navigate.

Pulse is a recurring column where we ask for readers’ takes on varying topics in a weekly survey and report back with our findings.

If you’ve been paying attention to the headlines lately (and we’re sure you are), you’ll notice that there’s a subtle shift happening in the market across the country. Things are looking like they’re finally slowing down.

And while it’s uncertain if this deceleration is temporary or a sign that the tide is turning, as contributor Carl Medford noted in this Inman article, “if this indeed is the shift we have been anticipating, it can mean good news for buyers who have effectively been locked out of the market.”

So, what do new agents need to know and prepare for in a shifting market? What’s the best piece of advice you can offer them right now?

We’ll compile a list of the top responses and post them on Inman next Tuesday.
