Good morning Ginger. There really is not right answer to this question, no matter what business, but when the time comes, all of us will know. In my case, never.

Make it a great weekend!

When they can no longer text and drive. LOL  Actually, the best time to retire, is when they have trouble seeing, hearing and walking up and down steps.

It should depend on the agent's goals and desires. There are some who like to travel a lot and some who have other hobbies.

When the business no longer satisfies their goals or they are tired of dealing with people they should get out of the business. If they are enjoying it and want to continue they can work until they can't. I have seen some agents that need to retire because of their attitudes.
