As a kid, he had dyslexia and a speech impediment. He couldn’t speak and he couldn’t read.

That made for a difficult childhood.

But as a result, he spent a lot of time studying others and developing a sixth sense for human nature — a skill which, in adulthood, made him into one of the top real estate agents in the world.

Who am I talking about?

I’m talking about Aaron Kirman , President International Luxury Estates at Compass . Aaron’s company has sold some of the biggest listings in history, and today, they rake in $8 billion in sales.

In this episode, we discuss:

• Breaking into empty luxury homes as a youth and pretending to sell them
• Why real estate came so naturally
• Making the jump to luxury real estate
• Why knowing what you want is the key to success
