Fee litigation, rule changes, and slow market movements have made 2024 a difficult year for many businesses, but facing adversity teaches some hard lessons that will help keep this business afloat.
As you may know, here at Inman we love to celebrate hard-working real estate professionals – the agents in the field who pound the pavement, have serious conversations, and find solutions.
I also love learning about how they got to where they are, the victories they celebrated, and the emotional moments they had along the way. That’s why since 2018, Inman has sniffed out real estate professionals across the country and asked them what they know now in a regular column called Lessons Learned.
