Your Career as a Residential Real Estate Associate
Residential real estate includes the sale of new, resale, condominium, rural and recreational residences. This requires understanding clients’ needs, wants, and finances. Clients will rely on you to provide relevant information, suitable properties, well-written contracts, favourable negotiations, and sales follow-up. You will need to be able to work independently, negotiate on behalf of your client, know any applicable legislation, and work irregular and flexible hours.
