Episode 10 Show Notes: Industry Experts on "Do I Need Real Estate Experience to Be a TC?"

Hello and welcome to the TC Exchange Podcast. I'm Amity Krause, your guide through the exciting world of real estate transaction coordination. I recently had the opportunity to collaborate with one of my favorite people in the TC world David Breckheimer. We both noticed that there seemed to be some frequent questions showing up about becoming a transaction coordinator. So today we're launching our special three part series where we'll explore some key questions that new transaction coordinators often grapple with.  

In this first episode of a 3-part series, we delve into “Do I need to have real estate experience in order to be a TC?” 

This is a question that many of you have asked and it's one that deserves a thorough exploration. To give you the most comprehensive insights, we've connected with leading industry experts, drawing from their vast experiences and knowledge. They'll share their perspectives, offering a blend of practical advice and insider wisdom, which will be invaluable whether you're just starting out or looking to deepen your understanding of the TC role. 

This is just the first of three pivotal questions that we'll be addressing in this series. In upcoming episodes, we'll also discuss the viability of being a TC while working as a real estate agent, (especially in slower markets). And we'll explore the feasibility of balancing a regular nine to five job with the responsibilities of being a TC.  So, whether you're a new transaction coordinator, an experienced TC looking to level up, or an agent curious about this role, this series is for you. 

Let's embark on this journey together and discover what it really takes to excel as a transaction coordinator in today's dynamic real estate industry.  Stay tuned.
