WHY 75% OF NEW REAL ESTATE AGENTS FAIL IN THE FIRST YEAR
According to the National Association of Realtors, most new agents don’t fail because of lack of ambition. They fail because real estate requires immediate, real-world competency, not textbook knowledge or theory. The industry gives them a license, but it does not give them the experience they need to survive.
Below are the core reasons for the high dropout rate:
1. No Real Transaction Experience
Getting licensed teaches laws, ethics, and definitions — not how to execute an actual transaction.
New agents walk into the industry without:
They freeze the moment something real happens.
2. No Mentor or Not Enough Mentorship
Many brokerages promise “support,” but what the new agent actually gets is:
Without hands-on guidance, a new agent has no blueprint.
3. No Immediate Wins → No Income → Panic
A new agent’s first check may take 90–180 days—IF everything goes right.
Many quit before the pipeline even starts because:
4. They Don't Understand How the Business Actually Works
Most agents think the job is:
“Show houses, write offers, get paid.”
But the real job is:
When they finally see the REAL duties, they feel blindsided.
5. No Systems, No Structure, No Professional Development
The industry has coaches, not transaction engineers.
New agents need a repeatable system, not motivation quotes.
Without structure, the agent becomes overwhelmed, distracted, and inconsistent.
