They have strong communication skills and naturally connect with others. When people who know them describe them, they point to their energy and passion as their most dominant characteristics.

Their burning desire is to build the dominant real estate company in their market. They have a need to influence others.

They possess a strong desire to have a position where they lead and influence others.

They are natural leaders who embrace succeeding through others, bottom-up leadership, and building a team. They possess a track record of relationships. They view learning as the foundation of their action plan.

They have at least 2–3 years of real estate sales experience and are in the top 5 percent of their office.
