I am sure everyone remembers their real estate priciples class, when eveyone you talked to stressed to pick a broker and office that would provide training. I took their advice seriously, I figured if everyone in the business was telling me the same thing it had to be important. That advice was one of the reasons I chose to work for Long & Foster. When I had first got started I had tons of in office training that really helped. Then they sent me to a training they have called Star Builders. This training takes rookies from several of their offices and have them train together, so it gives the newbies a chance to network with each other. Our trainer was a top producing agent, Carol Harold out of the Foxcroft Ave, Martinsburg WV office. The trainer gives you real world advice and prepares you for both sides of a real estate transaction, from start to after closing, because the agent is a very successful active agent you are getting "real life" scenarios thrown at you. The course also covers how to build your business, technology, how to find business with prospecting and farming, how to prepare yourself for business, etc... I feel so much more prepared for the real estate industry after completing Star Builders. I have to thank Long & Foster for caring about their agents, my manager Margie that made me enroll in class, and definetly Carol Harold my instructor who is willing to share her knowledge and help other agents, in and out of the classroom. Thanks Aaron
