“ When I became a Realtor, I saw how underrepresented people were in the market. I saw people closing and saying they didn't think their agent cared about them, they didn't think their lender cared about them. Everyone just wanted to get paid. It felt like everyone had a payday at closing except for me. When I became a Realtor, I just wanted to make a difference and change how we're viewed, which I think I've done. I've closed over 200 homes in my career.” - Lola Jefferson
