There’s a good chance that if you were to ask any professional real estate agent what motivated them to get their license, it was because this is one of the best ways to make money through hard work. While this might be true for most of us, what keeps us is the chance to work together and build networks and community and share that success with other working professionals so that we all can make money together. My guest this week is Marshal Nathe, a good friend and collaborator who believes, like I do, that our true strength as agents is not going it alone to reinvent the wheel, but sharing what works so that we can all get the most out of this crazy market we love to work in.

Quotes and Takeaways:

 

“I'm comfortable saying that I originally started real estate because I wanted to make a lot of money, but I knew I had to be good at what I did. I knew I had to take care of people and really have a passion for providing value that they wouldn't have otherwise. When I achieved that, the money came.” - Marshal

 

People tend to think about real estate as almost a competition, like it's you versus me. What you and I understood from day one when we started our transaction is that this is a group effort. We're trying to get you a good situation and we're trying to get my buyers a good situation. So, it boils down to: how do we make that happen? We work together.”  - Marshal

 

“With the market how it is, and how difficult it can be, if you can make money now and you're successful now, just wait until it goes back to normal, and you should really be kicking ass.” - Marshal
