A typical day

Mornings on the phone and the laptop: new listings on the local MLS (multiple listing service), client emails, contract deadlines, chasing an inspector or a lender. Afternoons out showing houses or previewing them. Evenings and weekends are when buyers are free, so that is when you work. Between all of it you are looking for the next client, because the deal you close this month is money you already stopped earning.
