Why did you get into real estate? I mean, honestly, some people get into real estate because they say, "I like people, I like houses," because they've been watching HGTV and they really don't know that you'll wind up hating houses and there's people you don't want to spend time with after you get into this. And so you have to really understand what you bring to the table if you want to make this a long-term professional play. So I got an email this week from someone who attended one of my events, and here is what this young man says. He said, "I got into this business because I've had a great experience with a REALTOR® and I had a not so great experience with a REALTOR® and I want to be a part of tipping the scales in favor of the ones that create a great experience."
