Submission AbstractBefore I got my real estate license, I was able to see the many different agents that had success in the industry and in running their own businesses. When I moved to Minnesota, I was worried that being from another state would hinder me from growing a significant business. I'm very grateful for my boss/mentor at the time for pushing me to get my license and teaching me the ins and outs of being an industry professional. I was in college at the time, but when my business started to increase significantly, I pivoted into doing real estate full-time and left college.
Today, I specialize in two sources: First-time homebuyers and veteran buyers. Over 50% of my business is first-time homebuyers. The goal is for my clients to walk out of the consultation with me feeling informed and confident about moving forward with me as their agent. A significant portion of my business—over 30% of my financed transactions—have been veterans, and I am very proud to have that statistic. Knowing the ins and outs of the VA loan process is incredibly important in helping my clients who are veterans achieve their dream of homeownership.
For me, it’s not about the home my client chooses. Instead, it's all about customer service and forging a relationship that lasts far past closing.
