Interview with Rachel Glover – Broker

 

I am a Real Estate Broker, Investor and General Contractor

What inspired you to start in real estate and how did you motivate yourself to keep going?

 

When I was in college, I loved watching all of the real estate HGTV shows watching investors and contractors completely transform a property and make great money doing it. It really inspired me to go for it.

Once I became a licensed real estate broker, it was not easy breaking into the business. What kept me motivated was the daily reminder that I did not like working for anyone and I was not going to go back to a corporate job.

Comparing your business from back then to now, what has been the main thing that allowed you to expand your business?

 

Building relationships with other real estate professionals, experienced investors and construction crews, really helped catapult my business and put me in a position of endless possibilities.

 


 

What’s the most profitable aspect of your business, why do you think this is and how can others apply this to what they are doing?

 

The most profitable aspect of my business has been working with sellers as the listing agent and learning enough from them to become an investor myself. Being a listing agent can truly help put your name out there and produce larger commissions. I have had sellers reach out to me in areas where I have sold property. They wanted me to do the same for them. 

Do not be afraid to ask pick up the phone, talk to property owners and ask for the listing. That one seller that’s says yes will make all of the no’s worth it.

How has social media and online marketing affected your real estate business? How much more success have you had now after implementing social media and online marketing efforts?

 

Social media has been the backbone of my business, especially when I was first starting out. As a broker, it is extremely important for EVERYONE to know what you do. With a little creative social media marketing, you can present yourself as an expert in the field. People will reach out to you seeking your assistance.


 

Did You Experience Failures? If So, What Did You Learn From Them?

 

I have had big deals completely fall apart just when we were about to reach the closing table. It happens. I had to learn very quickly not to stress or worry when something does not work out. I keep my cool, refuse to get upset and reassure myself that something big is just around the corner. That attitude has given me longevity in this business.
