Being a Mentor, Day 10

My mentee got her official license as of 2 days ago! Yay! That means she is listed on the Colorado Division of Real Estate. All Colorado real estate licensees can be found by searching here: http://eservices.psiexams.com/crec/search.jsp 

She is getting her photo taken for her business cards, website, Bray’s list of agents, etc., This photo will be seen in a lot of places, so it’s good to have a photo she likes. My mentee also shadowed me on a listing appointment. The sellers are out of town so I went to the property and took measurements and photos. My mentee helped me with that and then spent the afternoon gathering more information from the tax assessor’s site and neighborhood. We got some information from Navica.

In the past couple days, she has had lunch or coffee with several title companies. Depending on who the seller or buyer chooses for their title work, it is easier if she has already met them before the closing day. She missed some stuff because she had a family appointment. I know that everyone juggles all the facets of their life & sometimes family comes first. For me it is usually family and clients first and I always have difficulty when I feel that I am not giving either side enough time. So I have been talking with my mentee about having balance among all the tasks. She is working on a pretend listing of her own house. That gives her an opportunity to fill out all the forms. I remember, though, that I still was very careful when doing my first listing!
