Meet Deidre Watson, superstar agent in her first year with The Cliff Freeman Group! You have GOT to hear her story! While pursuing her career in cosmetology, Deidre was inspired by HGTV's House Hunters and real estate sales. She earned her real estate license in 2008, just in time for the real estate crash. After only one sale and one lease, she QUIT - left the business, realizing that it wasn't as easy as HGTV portrayed it!
Fast forward to 2015, Deidre becomes the proud mother of son Lincoln while managing her salon. Then, the real estate bug bit once again, and Deidre resurrected her real estate license, this time with a renewed determination as a single mother. Unfortunately, her results were the same. Then, in September of 2019, Deidre joined The Cliff Freeman Group and began to receive the training, coaching, and leads she needed to crush her first "real" year in the business. Deidre and Lincoln have become a Mom-Son duo and are blazing a wide trail, setting sales records along the way!
