Success Agent

Why do I think everybody should become a real estate agent? Here’s the deal: I worked 30-some odd jobs before I was 30 and had no idea what I was good at. I know a lot of you out there are just like that. I stumbled into real estate back in the day by accident and was basically told to invest in some REO properties (i.e., foreclosures) because I needed rental properties and residual income to get ahead in life. I didn’t even know how to spell “residual,” but I went down that path anyway. I put some money together, took out a HELOC on my house, and bought some real estate investment properties. Now I have 27 of them. I was very green when I entered the business and really didn’t have a clue of what I was doing, but I watched some YouTube videos, read a few books, and followed all the gurus out there. Then my sister-in-law told me I needed to get my real estate license, so I did. For a guy who had already had 30 jobs, I considered this one No. 31, thinking I’d eventually have No. 32. Luckily, I stopped at 31.
