I was introduced to someone who the office manager identified as someone who could help me. She went on a six week vacation the next day. Nice person but I never thought of her as a mentor.
I'm happy to answer questions to anyone...well...most any one.

I did not have a mentor but watched many from a distance and picked up styles and tips here and there.

My Broker was a friend before I came to work with him and started in the business. He's continued to be a closer friend as well as mentor, trainer and counselor.
I offer my assistance to all the new agents in our office. We have a team approach and it's been very helpful for everyone.

Fred Griffin may be I am fortunate - right from day 1 in my real estate career, learned from mentors, and now at this stage, helping newer agents.

Ron had a mentor, and then he mentored me, and I mentored our agents. On this platform, we all mentor in some way or other...I could write a book on the subject, so much to tell. One nugget is that the perfect mentor and the perfect student is like a perfect pitch in a song or a marvelous symphony...everyone thrives and learns. A

I used to have one, my first managing Broker. She was great, took me under her wing.
I have not been a mentor to someone but I have answered questions and helped many people in my office with computer problems.

My husband was my Mentor when I "married into real estate". I have mentored a number of people along the way. I would say I rewarded my husband because he taught me so well that I became his top agent!

No formal mentors, though I have learned from so many during my years.
In turn I have been generous with knowledge and guidence to others when ever they were in need and ready to learn.

Alas, Fred, I had no mentors. But I have been a mentor to several people in a company that had a formal mentoring program for new agents, all of whom are still Realtors today (and several extremely successful). As my RE/MAX office virtually never hires a newbie, I don't have much opportunity to mentor anymore.

When I started things were simpler. The contract was only a couple of pages long and my first company had an amazing training program that we had to complete before we were street ready. I also had a very hands on manager. I think it's different for newbies today because most companies don't have good post licencing programs, and good agents are not necessarily good teachers or mentors.

I was assigned a mentor when I was a new agent, but she was too busy. I do mentor new agents when I'm asked to and I'm there for them any time they need me during their first steps. I have one little bird right now, ready to fly:)

I remember the first "traditional" office where the broker told an "experienced" agent to mentor me. I was to start by listening to her take floor calls.
She gets a call and I hear her say "OH HONEY...I have the perfect house for you, let me show it to you..."
I decided right then that I was going to get a brokers license and open my own office that was not going to be like that.

I mentor agents every day....especially with land and new construction....
I was mentored by the best builder in my area....I had all of his listings and worked very closely with him...it's because of him that I sat for my Massachusetts Builder's License and had it for 20 years....

Fred Griffin Yes, I did have a mentor when I was transitioning to commercial real estate. We worked together on various transactions and split the fee. I have been a mentor and worked with new agents to help them get started in this business.

I had a mentor and she got a cut of my first 3 deals. Her 1:1 education, guidance and direction was priceless. I've been a mentor... It can be very rewarding but the new agent really needs to be appropriately motivated for me to justify the time required.

My first manager was a great person but I doubt I would call him a mentor.
I have not wanted to be a mentor to a newbie because it's just too time consuming. Hate to say that but early career drama is very tiring for me.
