Pros

-Fast Paced -Incredible Support System -Camaraderie -Everyone wants Everyone to Win

Cons

Difficult when you have a family and see other agents burning the midnight oil and working on the weekends. Pushes me to find a way to get things done.

New Western Response

Awesome to hear how much you value the fast-paced environment, support system, and team spirit at New Western. That “everyone wins together” mentality is a big part of our culture. Balancing family life with the demands of the role can be challenging, and we recognize the effort it takes to make it work. Noted on your suggestion about office presence. We appreciate the perspective. Glad to have your commitment and energy on the team!

Great place to learn but no real long term career opportunity

Senior acquisition agent

Recommend

Business Outlook

Pros

You will learn how to sell and learn a lot about investing in real estate. There is a lot of turnover so you meet a ton of new people and you can move up quickly! The whole company gathers at the end of each quarter to listen to senior management tell everyone that greatness is on the horizon and that everyone is about to make a ton of money but those promises tend to fall short. Don’t get me wrong, there are some top performers that might make a few bucks but most of the employees are just under the impression that they are making decent money. If you stay focused on the learning aspect and pay little attention to all of the Hooplah you will be fine. Please don’t go spend your first few paychecks on a nice watch no matter how much pressure there is to do so.

Cons

I was with the company for years and was considered a senior associate/ top producer. The compensation is minimal (nowhere close to $250,000 as stated below) even for a senior associate. You can expect to make $15,000 - $25,000 while in sales and $30,000 - $70,000 in acquisitions depending on the branch and your talent level (very few have earned more). You will be responsible for all marketing and lead generation. 99% of your marketing will be putting bandit signs on the side of the road and taking phone calls. The bandit signs are illegal but the company will pay for your tickets ( most of the time). Be prepared to use a substantial amount of gasoline and put thousands of extra miles on your vehicle with no reimbursement from the company.
