If you’re a lettings agent…

What’s your job like?

Looking to change jobs as sick to the back teeth of mine.

Applied for one of these roles and have been invited for an interview next week.

Just wondering if anyone has any insight?

Stressful. Tenants do not give a fuck and will do anything when they’re late with rent to avoid paying. Also when they move out they will argue till they’re blue in the face it was how it was when they moved in (!!!)

Landlords are no better, majority have a stick up there arse and expect you to do everything for bare minimum price. I would avoid like the plague and glad I got out when I did!

Hahaha

You’ve just mentioned everything I was worried it would be.

I’ll keep looking!

Hella stressful. Oh and overtime is the norm and no you don't get paid for it, whatever you do you're the AH (although that's probably the same with every job). You can make good money and depending on where you work you can get some gifts or free tech.

My partner did this for about 6 months and eventually quit. Pressure to work lots of hours and you might not even get any commission until you are passed months upon months of probation.

He liked this least out of all his jobs.

Unless you are a confident pushy sales person who likes working all hours don't do it!
