3 websites that every real estate agent needs to know!

How have you been spending your time at home these past few months?  After the initial shock of being confined, I did enjoy the relative peace and quiet of just doing nothing.  That lasted a few days but after that, I had to start doing some constructive things! One of the things that I did…
