Surrounding yourself with
positive people plays a big role in growing your business. Brittany
Brooks, entrepreneur, investor, real estate advisor, and coach,
tells her story from the W2 rat race to a successful Owner/Broker
at Momentum Realty. She shares how she joined her husband in real
estate sales as the Lead Buyer's Agent on The Brooks Group with the
mission of helping their community build wealth through real
estate, and how that has changed her life. She believes that if an
agent is not getting value from where they are, they will look for
an opportunity elsewhere. This conversation will give you a new
perspective on what it takes to be a successful solo agent - it's
not just about making money, it's about finding the right deals and
building relationships with clients that will last
long-term.
