You recently got your license and are excited about selling your first home. But three months later, it hasn’t happened, the bills are piling up, and you need to put food on the table.

It kind of makes you want to give up. Listen to our chat with Maxwell Stevens, a Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Pocono Realtor, for inspiration. He shares his real estate journey and offers practical advice on turning dreams into reality.

Maxwell Stevens' Journey into the Real Estate Industry

Despite Maxwell’s family being a part of the real estate industry for years, he felt it wasn’t the right path for him. After spending a few years traveling and in various sectors, he landed in the credit card processing business.
The credit card industry didn’t give him the return he wanted, so he decided to enter the world of real estate. Through strength, drive, and self-improvement, Maxwell discovered the success he has today.
His journey into real estate proves that getting that one more "yes" can lead to life-changing opportunities for your business.

Overcoming the Downsides of Real Estate

After receiving his real estate license, Maxwell was a bartender, barely making ends meet while trying to rebuild his life.
Despite struggling to find clients, he focused more on his mental health, emotional, and physical well-being. He found that by focusing on these areas, everything else started to come together for him.

Learn How to Say No

When starting in real estate, it's easy to say yes to everything. Maxwell explains that this is a mistake and actually does a disservice to yourself.
Real estate agents have numerous tasks to manage to keep their business running, and taking on too much leads to burnout. Following the quote, "Honor yourself so you can honor others," will help protect your time and peace of mind.

Maxwell's Brand: What's Making Him Stand Out

After hearing Alan Dalton speak about the "forever agent" and relationships over transactions, Maxwell knew this was the type of message he wanted for his brand.
He focuses on putting himself in the shoes of someone buying a house and considering how he would want to be treated throughout the process.
This allows him to build a brand that's friendly, pressure-free, and consultative, ready to help prospects find their home.

“Real estate school taught me the legalities and regulations. But it didn’t teach me how to do real estate until I was put in the fire.” - Maxwell Stevens.
