Notable Quotes
"Realtors need to understand what their clients are going through to be able to help them through the process. It's a huge, major, major life change. And it's really important. I think the successful realtors are the people who can be really sensitive to that.”
"Time management is one of the number 1 challenges for new agents. It's very easy to sort of lose your way when you don't have a structured environment that operates in a certain way. What works for you is not gonna work for somebody else and works for someone else.”
"You have to take what other people are doing and find a way so that it works in your brain and so that on a daily basis, when you're trying to get things done -- it helps you get things done. It doesn't hinder you from getting things done."
"Time management is at the very beginning of that conversation for sure. So as you planned out your year, I always say to the team, gotta find time for the vacay. The whole point of this is clarity, having a better life, being able to spend time with family."
"You need some kind of backup if Real Estate doesn’t work out. Either if you're gonna start it, you need to have a lot of savings that you can live off of for a while."
