Meet Jace, a 2022-2023 Leadership student at LIFT and Martinsville Jr.-Sr. High School graduate. While attending LIFT, he expressed interest in Real Estate. Due to a partnership with Century 21 KIMA Properties, he has been able to job shadow with them. He has been going out on showing and listing appointments with some of their agents. Jace hopes to complete his real estate license and work for them.

Margie Swensen, the Designated Managing Broker - Owner at Century 21 had the following to say about Jace:

"Once Jace gets his Broker’s license, as the Managing Broker I will be sponsoring Jace’s license. Real Estate Brokers are not employees they work as independent contractors. In the State of Illinois, Real Estate Brokers are required to work under the direction of a Managing Broker. Once I sponsor Jace’s license he will work as an Independent Contractor for Century 21 KIMA Properties.

Century 21 KIMA Properties is the top-producing brokerage in our area. Jace will have the opportunity to be mentored by the top-producing brokers in our firm. He will tag along with me and the other brokers in our office to learn how to be a top producer. There are lots of different approaches to selling real estate. By learning from different agents, he can choose the approach that best resonates with him. We will teach him how to best educate his clients about real estate and how to write contracts. He will also be learning the process of how to get a deal from A-Z. From showing properties, listing properties, writing contracts, negotiating terms and conditions of the contracts, ordering inspections, writing repair addendums, ordering title work, and ensuring the settlement transactions are completed accurately. We will teach him how to ensure a smooth and successful process."
