We at REALTOR® Magazine are always looking for tips and insights into the real estate business to share with you in hopes of improving your odds of success. This year, we hit a nerve with a few interesting stories covering topics such as verbal missteps with clients, social media posts that could land you in hot water ethically, and underlying tensions between brokers and team leaders, among others.

Do these things at the beginning of your career, and you'll set yourself up to build a business that will last well into the future.
