What does it take to be a Top 100 agent? According to Jason Pantzer of Phillips Pantzer Donnelley, who ranked number seven in the REB Top 100, it might be easier than you think, as long as you’re prepared to work hard.

“Your success comes from the runs that you’ve got on the board, the reputation you build up in the industry and hard work,” Mr Pantzer said.
