There is not ONE thing, it is several, but have made some connections that will be for a lifetime, a schedule that I love, doing what I love and the feeling of satisfaction after a closing!

I can not think of just one thing. i can say pver all the best thing is allowing me a life where i make my schedule. I work hard and get rewarded for hard work. I dont think i really started to enjoy it until i realized that i can block time for me, such as my daughters games,  events, plays and taking an hour for gym time AND realize clients dont mind. It allows me to be better focused and better at what i do to get these rewards.

Home is where the hearth is.

The 'best' thing was probably that very first commission check.  It's kinda right up there with 'first girlfriend'.
