Shirley you can't be serious

I'm just not seeing the connection of working in real estate and her having 2.4 mill worth of properties? Not like every agent has only 2.4 mill worth of properties

Also I'm first to admit easy as to get a job keeping it different story & like anything how much are they earning? Work 6-7 days a week the average income in real estate is pathetic like 60k..

Is it really?

Why is there the perception that real estate is massive dollars for minimal work

Or is this just the case for all kinds of sales?

[emts]

matter of curiosity those staff that look after the rental properties..what sort of average would they be on?

Working a fulltime job on the frontline of the industry you're investing in, that gives you regular insight for the property market and experience working within it...you're already starting a foot ahead of every other investor. You work and breathe what others have to do in their spare time. Tons of advantages to it if you're wanting to invest in property.

Mohsen shouldn't do anything

Suburbs 45k + comms

Inner city probably 60-70k + comms but downside payin for parking etc.

Perception is all agents make a ton. They don't it's the typical 80/20 rule - 20% of the agents make 80% of the money.

How much comms we talking for an average achiever?

[alr33x]

In sales? The average agent earns 50-60k statistically

wow less than my starting wage here 15 years ago for an entry level role.

[alr33x]

Yeah property management starts quite low .. If you climb up can end up on decent money id say most would be 60-65k including comms - seniors would get up over 100k id say

Should be much more given most marketing coordinator jobs require tertiary education

You'd wanna love marketing for that average pay plus uni debt

The average pay for a Marketing Coordinator is AU$50,443 per year. Most people move on to other jobs if they have more than 10 years' experience in this field.

And wtf is with that last sentence lol?

Guess that last sentence means promotions or diff roles based on survey results

Yeah just sounded funny, I know a few marketing people who will stay in the role for decades.
