From Burnout to Breakthrough: How Smart Agents Are Thriving in a Tough Market

The Real Estate Reality

The numbers don’t lie. The real estate industry is in the midst of a significant shakeup. In 2023 alone, over 26,000 agents left the National Association of Realtors (NAR). Rising interest rates, shrinking inventories, and evolving client expectations have left many agents wondering if it’s time to throw in the towel.

But here’s the thing: challenging markets don’t just weed out the weak—they create opportunities for the smart, the strategic, and the determined to rise. If you’re feeling burned out, overwhelmed, or stuck, you’re not alone. But you don’t have to stay there.

Why Some Agents Are Thriving When Others Are Struggling

So, what separates agents who thrive from those who are walking away? The answer lies in support, strategy, and systems. At Clareo Real Estate, we’ve built an environment designed to help agents not just survive but succeed—even in tough markets.

Here’s how:

1. Personalized Mentorship: You don’t need to navigate these challenges alone. Clareo Real Estate offers one-on-one mentorship from industry veterans who’ve seen it all. Whether you’re struggling with lead generation, closing deals, or managing your time, we’re here to guide you.
   
   

2. Proven Systems for Success: Success isn’t about working harder; it’s about working smarter. We provide tools and training that streamline your business, from mastering the latest tech to perfecting your negotiation skills.
   
   

3. A Culture That Cares: Burnout happens when you feel like you’re carrying the weight of the world on your shoulders. At Clareo, you’re part of a family. We celebrate wins together, support each other during tough times, and keep our eyes on the bigger picture: delivering excellence to our clients while living lives of purpose and balance.
   
   

Real Stories, Real Results

Take Audrey, for example. She was ready to leave the industry after months of declining commissions and increasing frustration. After joining Clareo, she worked closely with our mentors to fine-tune her prospecting strategy and tap into niche markets she hadn’t considered before. After her first year with Clareo, her business is thriving and she loves her career again.

Then there’s Lawana, who struggled with time management and felt overwhelmed by her growing to-do list. With Clareo’s systems and training, she automated key parts of her business, freeing up hours every week to focus on what she does best: building relationships with clients. Lawana went on to become the top individual producer for the company in 2024.

Don’t Just Survive—Thrive

This market isn’t for the faint of heart. But it’s also a moment of incredible opportunity for agents who are ready to think differently, work smarter, and align with the right team.
