How a Houston real-estate agent who closed $28 million in deals in 2022 turned her broadcast news layoff into a lucrative new career

and immediately started receiving messages from old high-school friends and colleagues asking whether she would take on their listings. Three months later, she had three houses in her portfolio — two of which were luxury homes priced at more than $750,000."I remember crying at the end of some weeks from pure exhaustion," she said.

"It shows people all the layers of who I am, how I travel, what my hobbies are, and what real estate looks like in other parts of the world," she said."People work with people they like and feel most connected to."
