Hello everyone, I'm Francis Apolinar! I'm not an expat but I am a fresh grad and trying to test my mettle in real estate. I'm currently working for Megaworld as a property consultant and I sell properties at The Fort area in Metro Manila. If anyone's interested, please contact me (moderated: no ads please)
Thank you and have a great day

Hi..I just want to know what it's like to be a real estate agent? is it difficult, and does it give you a stable income?

It's a case to case basis really. If you have relatives that can shell out big bucks to support you and are also well connected then you won't have that much of a hard time; But if you're starting from scratch, well, it's a lot of hard work. Most give out flyers, post multiple ads online, do newspaper inserts, magazine inserts, and all other forms of promotions and God-willing, you'll have inquiries and buyers. It's a very tough but rewarding job.

Hey, where are you in Davao?
