"For anyone that’s in education considering a new career or transitioning after retirement, real estate is amazing. You get to help people achieve their dreams. You get to do it on your own time. The flexibility of time, the freedom of time, but you also have the opportunity to earn a very good income while you’re helping people achieve their dreams." – Ernie S. Flores
"The main reason that I switched from teaching to real estate was because I had kids of my own and I needed flexible hours. I brainstormed, ‘what can I do that I would I be good at?’, and working with people, with their children, made a perfect transition. And I’m still making people happy and giving hugs." – Paulie W.
"Right before I got into real estate, I worked in law enforcement in corrections in Colorado, and I was also a dialysis tech for 15 years. So I like to help people on all lifes of journey, journey’s life. And real estate’s a different, it’s just a different beast, but it’s an amazing beast to help people become homeowners." – Angel Decker
"My transition from law enforcement into real estate was pretty simple. The freedom of the schedule is great. I have four boys, and I used to work graveyard swing shifts. I never saw them unless it was my day off. So the freedom that real estate has given us, to spend more time with my family, and actually watch my kids grow up, has been great compared to being in law enforcement. So it’s definitely, definitely worked out. " – Garret Decker
"I fell in love with this business 40 years ago and it has romanced me every day. If you have a passion for helping others, then that’s it. You’re helping people achieve the American dream. What could be better than that? I love people being happy, going into homes, building families’ lives together. And then you follow them throughout the years and then you’re helping their children. It’s just been a very good life, and I’m very, very happy that I’ve had this joy in my life that I call real estate." – Lena Melaragni
