“Why do many real estate agents in Sierra Leone miss their commission?
The main reason is no clear agreement before the deal.
Some agents bring clients, but there is no written contract, so when the deal is done, they are ignored.
Another reason is going through middlemen instead of dealing directly with the owner.
And sometimes, agents don’t follow up or protect their role in the deal.
If you’re an agent, always: ✔️ Agree on your commission upfront
✔️ Put it in writing
✔️ Stay involved until the deal is completed
Because in real estate: If it’s not agreed, it’s not guaranteed. 💼
