Whether you’re a brand-new agent still waiting on your first commission check or a seasoned agent trying to jumpstart a slow season, the real question is the same: where do you find a deal?  In real estate, there’s no shortage of strategies: calling expireds, launching Facebook ads, working your sphere, and hosting open houses, but not all strategies are created equal, especially when you’re just starting out.  Some methods build momentum fast, others require more skill, time, or confidence than most new agents have on day one. The goal isn’t just to get a transaction, it’s to get that first win that proves you belong in this business.  What are some of the easiest ways to generate a deal in 60-90 days?
