Whenever people tell me they want to get into real estate, and ask me for advice, I take their questions really seriously. I also pay attention to what they are hoping for by getting into real estate. Are they looking for the dream that Selling Sunset and HGTV sell? Or are they looking to hustle like crazy and do whatever it takes to be successful? I try and paint a realistic picture of what being a realtor is truly all about. Fabio approached me years ago about real estate, and here he is, two years later, rocking it. However, there have been some major surprises and Fabio was kind enough to share his top 5.
