Episode 32: Should you hire new people‪?‬ Real Estate of Tomorrow

    • Investering

The market keeps on changing. It’s hard for experienced professionals to keep up with what’s happening, so imagine how complicated it is for someone new to the industry. STILL, you shouldn’t avoid hiring new people. LISTEN UP.
The real estate game is changing - screw that - it already has and no-one is REALLY talking about it....until now. Real Estate of Tomorrow holds conversations on crucial topics needed to successfully navigate the shifting real estate industry. In this bi-weekly podcast we break down the massive shifts in real estate and tell you the specific steps you need to take to kick a$$ in the coming years, just like we are. We’re your hosts, Edgardo Balentine and Scott DiGregorio, giving you the rundown on real estate from decades of experience and the new generation.
Today we talk about how you can hire new people. People who are new to the industry are like a BLANK CANVAS. That can be a good thing or a problem depending on how you prepare to manage their onboarding. You’ll need to know how to communicate your expectations and what skills to teach if you want your new hires to thrive.
