Astonishing Rags to Riches Real Estate Success Stories

Business


Some classic Brittiny Quotes ...   “I have a big dick and I’m not afraid to say things” “I don’t back down if I believe something is right.” “Get your ass up and go to work.”   Show notes ... In this fifth episode of Rags to Riches podcast, Baton Rouge real estate agent Brittiny Howard shares with us her brazen but captivating story. Growing up, she had a good support network, with her dad working in a roofing and brick masonry business. Her first stint at real estate was when she helped her mom sell their home at 12 years old to her best friend's family.  Even though she had her first child at the age of 20 and raised him as a single mother, she refused to let it stop her from graduating at the University of Vanderbilt on time.   However, difficult times came when she was barely making enough money and even had to count nickels in order to buy their food. Despite all of this, her little boy was her biggest motivation to push and try harder.   This iron-willed and decisive mother was able to close 52 deals in her first year as a real estate agent. But by the end of 2017, merely four days after she got fired by her brokerage, her home and neighborhood got flooded. The government didn’t help them and her insurance failed to reimburse everything she spent, wiping out all of her savings. Devastated as she was, her family and personality remain as her driving force to “get her ass up” and go to work—with no more excuses.   Brittiny simply believed that losing and failing is not an option.   Tune in as she mentions the amazing people who’ve become part of her real estate journey, how she started focusing on building relationships with her potential clients, and her special way of giving back to the less fortunate in her community.   Mentions:   Zillow - https://www.zillow.com/ Commissions Inc (CINC) - https://www.cincpro.com/ Google (PPC) - favorite set-up Lab Coat Agents - https://www.labcoatagents.com/ YouTube - https://www.youtube.com  Gusty Gulas - https://www.linkedin.com/in/gustygulas  Tristan Ahumada - https://www.linkedin.com/in/tristanahumada Michael Hellickson, Club Wealth - https://clubwealth.com/michael-hellickson/   Kevin Markarian - https://www.searchsanfranciscocahomes.com/team/kevin-markarian-licensed-real-estate-agent Sam* Cheri Benjamin - https://www.linkedin.com/in/cheri-benjamin-945bb8115  Mike Bjorkman - https://teambjorkman.com/team/mike-bjorkman-licensed-real-estate-agent Amanda Todd - http://amandatoddgroup.com/  Howard Tager - https://www.ylopo.com/howard-tager-ylopo-ceo Vanderbilt University - https://www.vanderbilt.edu/   Show Sponsors;    Ylopo -  The Future of Real Estate  Tech - https://www.ylopo.com Lab Coat Agents - The  #1 Facebook Real Estate Group to learn how to grow your real estate business -  https://www.facebook.com/groups/labcoatagents/
