In addition to other experience or non-experience, we are looking for the following qualities: 1. Desire to Achieve: This keeps agents moving in the right direction, keeps them positive when there are setbacks, cheerful with peers, customers and clients, and leads to success. 2. Self-Discipline: As an independent contractor, the ability to set and maintain goals is essential, especially if new to sales. These people are highly goal-oriented and strive daily to improve their skills. 3. Tenacity: An agent must have the ability to bounce back and keep going through difficult circumstances. Real estate people do not get paid for their time – only results! 4. Communication Skills: Excellent communication skills are a key to establishing rapport with customers. A very important communication skill is that of LISTENING. 5. Organizational Ability: Keeping track of details is paramount, as well as follow-up. An agent is responsible for him/herself. 6.
