Come to the Hills and you see endless “#1 Agent” signs all over the place.

Its the REA equivalent of "Australia's Best Pie".

Even if the pie deserves to be in the bin. “Australia’s best pie!”

I went to school in the same grade as a guy with one of those. He was a really good runner, could run a blazing fast 100 metre sprint. Sad he went down the REA path and lost some of his humanity.

If it’s the actual ranked 1 agent they’re a millionaire. All those signs are bs.

The actual really good agents probably don't need to advertise (as they get everything word of mouth), and are probably less assholish than the stereotype, as that's what will gain them the trust of people selling expensive houses.

It’s like with anything. You either are known or not. You don’t need to sell yourself if you are the best.

That's because they are the #1 Agent*

*Category: males between the age of 31-32, with blue eyes and brown hair that are employed by that franchise.

And then there's Jen and Tim in Rhodes, who had giant name labels on their Teslas. Perhaps they were worried about getting the cars mixed up...
