Why Aren’t You Getting the Support You Need?

Harcourts Chief Growth Officer Tina Ashton asks an essential question.

Real estate can be an incredibly rewarding industry—but it’s no secret that it can also be demanding. The hours are long, the pressure is high, and the stakes are real.

Yet too many talented agents find themselves navigating this challenging field feeling unsupported, isolated, and overworked. Here’s a simple truth that every agent should hear: the right environment matters.

The Reality of the Industry

I’ve watched this industry closely for years, and the pattern is undeniable. Highly motivated individuals enter the field, full of promise and potential, only to burn out.

Others experience the overwhelm of trying to keep up, feeling as though they’re shouldering every hurdle alone. This shouldn’t happen—but it does. And it doesn’t have to.

I always ask a critical question every agent should ask themselves too: Are you getting the support you need to succeed?

Support Makes All the Difference

Success in real estate isn’t just about working hard; it’s about working smart, and that requires a support system.

You need to be part of a team that genuinely invests in your development, offers resources that make life easier, and provides mentorship to help you overcome challenges.

Why do so many agents burn out? Because they’re missing that essential framework of support. They’re trying to be all things, all the time—which is unsustainable.

Do It Differently

We have designed our culture and systems to support agents at every step of the way. Whether you’re new to the industry or years into your career, we ensure that no one feels like they’re going it alone.

From tailored training programmes to experienced leadership that’s there to guide you, we give agents the tools they need to thrive, not just survive.

This difference is what separates us. It’s why our network is filled with agents who last, grow, and genuinely love what they do.

Your Next Move

Feeling isolated isn’t inevitable. If you’re asking yourself “Why am I not feeling supported?”, it might be time to consider a change.

Being part of the right team can reignite your passion for the industry and give you the foundation to reach your full potential.

Here’s the bottom line: real estate is hard enough without having to do it alone. At Harcourts, we make sure you’re never in that position.

Are you ready to work with a team that’s in your corner? Now’s your time.
