Many of the VLS sales reps are independent contractors, paying their own expenses as MLS agents do at outside agencies, and the VLS reps are expendable if they do not produce or commit misrepresentation. There are dozens more available to replace them, as experienced agents move here and get their real estate license in FL.

Experienced agents would LOVE to get that access to TV's literal gold mine of marketing and advertising data system that targets national and international customers.

On the other hand, regular MLS agencies I've seen will keep any Joe Blow as an agent, regardless of whether they produce or starve, because that agent isn't costing the agency anything.
It really irritates me when I read things from (well-meaning perhaps???), self-created experts.

According to what Jamblu said, he did try to contact a broker and never got a call back. Read his/her original post. And NO, only some agents want to sell real estate in TV, but not all licensees because they have too many unusual rules. I'm not aware of an "advertising data system" that targets national and international customers. Please explain what that is.

Qualified real estate offices will generally not keep a Realtor in their employ if they do not produce. They can't afford to as it does cost the broker money to have them affiliated with the company.
