sure, i'd probably see the value in someone helping you sell your house in a really stagnant market... but in a market such as vancouver pffft, the house sells itself. brb 30k cheque out of nowhere.

What Drow said. They don't really have to do much work, the houses sell themselves. Especially in the suburbs here where most houses are around the 800/900 mark and people are paying above asking for them.

But, if you have at the drive and determination it's an excellent career. I've thought about it a few times.
