The Honest Real Estate Agent: A Training Guide For a Successful First Year and Beyond as a Real Estate Agent [Kindle Edition]

Mario Jannatpour (Author)

Book Description

Have you been thinking about getting a real estate license? 

Are you going to real estate school now? 

Have you recently passed your real estate exam where you live? 

One of the drawbacks of most real estate courses and schools is they don't teach you how to succeed as a Real Estate Agent once you get your license. 

This is the book for you because it will help you hit the ground running once you get your license. 

It is written by an actual, active Realtor.  Mario Jannatpour is with RE/MAX Alliance in Louisville, Colorado and what he writes about is based on his experience of what it takes to be successful today as a Realtor.  Mario has been a Realtor since 2002.

Reader Review:  Are you green in real estate or a veteran?  Do you know what buyers and sellers are looking for when they are looking at you?  What qualities differenciate you from your competition?
 
Mario has helped pin point what today's buyers and sellers are looking for in their real estate agent giving relavent information as well as insight on how you should handle different situations.  We all know that honesty is the best policy yet the profession of representation is riddled with pot holes where one can stray.  This book will help any new agent or seasoned agent gain a true north when dealing with clients.  Mario's first book, Must See Inside, was a great introduction to the real estate business and with this book, The Honest Real Estate Agent, Mario dives deeper on how to "be" a real estate agent which means doing the right thing, always!
 
I sincerely recommend this book for anyone who is getting into the business and wants to get a firm handle of how to "be" great at your job.

5.0 out of 5 stars Not Your Typical Rah-Rah/Make a Million Real Estate Sales Book April 2, 2011

By Jennifer Allan

Format:Kindle Edition

In a word, this book is... refreshing. In an industry where production and prospecting is celebrated above competence and customer service, Mario points out the obvious and drives it home - real estate consumers want their agents to be honest, ethical, hard-working and knowledgeable. If you can deliver on those basic consumer desires, you'll be rewarded with plenty of repeat and referral business for years to come... without beating the streets every time you need to refill your pipeline.

What was especially meaningful to me in The Honest Real Estate Agent were the testimonials from real people all describing what they want and expect from a real estate agent. Time and again the concepts of honesty, knowledge, expertise and competence were mentioned, but if you peruse the typical real estate sales training book, all you'll see is advice on how to dial, knock, push, close and manipulate... then lather, rinse and repeat. Mario's book offers none of that; instead, he encourages agents to treat their clients with an eye toward the future, not simply an eye toward a quick commission check.

From the first page, Mario draws you in with his warm, sincere and authentic voice - you feel as if you're having a chat with him over coffee. Again... such a refreshing change from your typical lofty, holier-(and smarter)-than-thou voice of the typical real estate training guru guide.

4.0 out of 5 stars Honest Opinions from a Good Realtor April 3, 2011

By Brett Reichel

Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase

Mario's book and his ideas are very timely. Over the last few years (basically, the peak of the bubble), it appeared that this type of Realtor disappeared. Now Mario's opinions are proving to be true as the honest ones are the ones that are surviving. As a 30 year veteran of working with the real estate industry, I can tell you the best type of Realtor to work with. The honest ones, who look out more for their clients than they do their commission.

Mario's book is good, easy read, that would help a new entrant to Real Estate Sales immensly. I do recommend it!

5.0 out of 5 stars Gives sight to the blind.. March 7, 2011

By Richie Real Estate Broker

Format:Kindle Edition

So you want to be a Real Estate agent? Then, you need to get educated and not all of what you need to know will be found in school but in the form of feedback and input from those that have been there and done that. There are many in this group, but here is where this author shines. He has captured a relevant part of the business and is submitting it for your review. It is like a fat tasty spare rib waiting to be consumed offering more meat and less bone. That is what the aspiring agent needs most of. When so many agents are being tempted to give up, this is really the time for many to rev up, and this book will supply some of the fuel to run at optimum. Thank you Mario and well done. You have done a service to the reader and the industry at large with this book.
