Pros
I worked at New Western Acquisitions for about 3 years. Like everyone who works here I started as a Dispositions Agent and worked my way up to Acquisitions. If you are looking to pursue a career in real estate then I would definitely recommend this company. You will learn a lot about the industry very quickly and be involved in more transactions than any new real estate agent. The culture is young and fun. While it is competitive sales, everyone is extremely supportive and truly happy when others succeed. Every general manager I knew was awesome and did everything they could to help their employees grow, succeed, and make as much money as possible. The company itself is growing rapidly so there is plenty of opportunity to climb the ranks quickly if you can perform, and performance is rewarded well $$$
Cons
This is a commission only sales job so success is based on performance. In the beginning it's a grind. Don't expect to only work 4-5 hours per day and make tons of money. However if you put in the work, build relationships, and learn from the experienced agents, then things get smoother and your income will jump up. Each year I worked there I made significantly more than the year before. Also, transaction management can be stressful. You are dealing with distressed properties so challenges can and do pop up in escrow. Fortunately the senior agents are always there to provide guidance if you ask for it.
