A lot for a little!

Pros

Customers are directed by internet advertising to Home Sale Centers so there are numerous prospects/leads.

Cons

They expect a lot for a little bit of pay you will sell the home, help obtain financing, prepare paperwork for several different closings on one sale, apply for permits, coordinate the contractors to build homes, visit job sites, etc. not a very organized process. The corporate office makes you jump through so many hoops to close one deal. You are also expected to go out in the field each week and put up signs on roads to help direct traffic and generate leads. Three jobs in one I would say for very little money. Recently lowered pay to 24,000 a year with no draw to pay back but lowered commission to on each sale. Very dissapointed in the process.

Pros

steady salary, health insurance, 401k match, life insurance, weekends off and vacation time. Pretty good job security considering they can't find good help for what they are willing to pay so if you are good at what you do, you just about can't get fired...you'll just have to quit.

Cons

salary too low for the skills I have, managers only care about their bonuses and don't give a rip about the guys doing the work. Managment very stingy.
