Christina Welch graduated with a Bachelor of Fine Arts and struggled to find her passion until she became a Real Estate broker, never to look back. As she herself claims, she chose the worst timing to get into the real estate business. However, having had so many problems at the beginning of her career also had the effect of developing her incredible problem-solving skills.
In 2006, Christina started building her first team for her very own real estate business. Although she learned as she went, it took her only 4 years to grow it into one of the state’s top real estate teams, helping homeowners get out of distress homes and allowing buyers to find the house of their dreams.
In this episode of real estate excellence, Christina talks about how she builds her real estate teams, how she keeps consistent sales during crises and times of uncertainty in the markets, and how she grew from the ground up into a highly successful broker and businesswoman.
Make sure to tune in to learn why there’s no I in team and why problems can often be our greatest opportunities.
