Part of our problem with how we get paid is REBBA (in Ontario). This must be changed to allow for retainers, pay by the hour, flat rate plus percentage, etc…
And CREA has to stop portraying us to the public as if our life is real estate. We are PROFESSIONALS. Not in it for a day or for the good times. Thick and thin – we PROFESSIONALS work hard for our living.
Try calling your accountant at 10 at night and see what happens.
