The first week working at a property in Sandy, Utah has been so much fun! I have met many amazing people who I get to work beside and learn from for the next 12 weeks. The position started with lots of video training and learning about the liabilities behind Fair Housing. To be completely honest, the first few days left me feeling like I was pawned off to a computer for training. However, by the end of the week I understand the importance of following the laws and am in love with my new job! Throughout the week I spent a lot of time outside of work learning about the units I will be selling and yesterday it paid off when I had my first showing. I am now on a three day weekend for memorial day and I cant wait to go back to continue putting my skills to work -thats got to be a good sign!
