Everyone wants to talk about what agents make.
Almost nobody wants to talk about what agents carry.
The marketing costs.
The photos.
The MLS fees.
The gas.
The insurance.
The time.
The late-night calls.
The 50 showings that turn into “we’re going to wait.”
The problems solved quietly behind the scenes so the client doesn’t have to panic.
A good agent is doing a lot more than opening doors and showing up at closing with a smile.
They’re managing timelines, negotiating pressure points, protecting the client, coordinating details, reading the room, handling emotions, and keeping the whole thing moving when nobody else sees what’s happening.
So before someone says, “Agents get paid too much,” Karen has a challenge:
Get the license.
Work the deal.
Handle the clients.
Manage the stress.
Get it to the closing table.
Then let’s talk.
If you want an agent who understands what it actually takes to protect your move, call Karen Gill at Coldwell Banker Town & Country.
