What 2 Real Estate Directors Wish They Knew When They Started in the Industry
Mon Dec 01 2025
Expectations vs. Reality: Real Estate Edition.
Let’s just say we’ve seen a lot happen in the Australian Real Estate Industry 😅
Coming up to the end of the year, and with Kirst about to have her second baby we thought it’d be a great time to reflect back a bit on our careers, bust some myths and talk about few stories we haven’t spoken about on the pod yet…
We’re answering:
- What we thought real estate was going to be like… and how different it actually was
- Whether we remember our first listing… and what really happened
- The moments we genuinely questioned whether real estate was for us
- What we’d go back and tell our younger selves at the start of our careers
- The things that used to stress us out that now feel ridiculous in hindsight
- The real estate advice we were given early on… that ended up being completely wrong
- What we think we would’ve done if we weren’t in real estate at all
- How we learned to deal with rejection (and how much you really have to)
- What would shock our younger selves about where we are now
- If we’d still choose real estate again knowing everything we know today
- What success actually means to us right now
… and SO much more.
