I agree with Carol Williams ~ when I first started and understood the intensity that I put into a listing, and knew I didn't want to be a megaproducer with a lot of subordinates, I set my limit at 10 listings I would carry at a time. I got five listings last month and three buyers, and it was almost as much as I was comfortable handling. We all have different desires in our business. I want to be sorta busy, not crazy

I have signed up as many as five new clients in a day, but after that I was too busy to meet with any prospects the rest of the week.

7-8 if I recall. Back in my short sale days.  That was a crap ton of work and I did it solo.  Today, I would not take more than 2-3.  

I never set out to be mega anything ... it is not who I am  ... not in my blood.

3 or 4 is the most we've taken on in a week.  It was a good week and doesn't happen often!

I guess I am more of a "boutique" agent and have always selected quality over quantity. I have seen too many of my friends and fellow associates with health problems or die too early over too much stress and chasing the $$.

Hi Tony & Suzanne - We did five once back in the bad old days. We were a builder's preferred agent and got listings for their buyers who had a home to sell - we did half-price commissions, but got a full commission on what they bought. It was a great deal.

when I was actively working, I can remember taking 8 resale listings in one week.... they all bought new homes through me.... when you have new construction, you have income from other directions, too!! and I had as many as 45 transactions going at once..... consistently 35-45.....that was for a few years....then the market changed.... and for that I was thankful....
