The Trick With Growth Is Mentality - Dylan Suitor

But the growth-minded realtor doesn’t have to be content with their role as a real estate agent. It’s only one of the possible careers in real estate. However, moving from one career and role into another can be a daunting task for various reasons, not in the least because of the lack of support or any kind of plan.

Dylan Suitor wants to give realtors an easier way to envision and progress their growth-oriented careers. As a realtor who’s involved with multiple businesses and has hands-on knowledge with several different careers in real estate, Dylan Suitor has the perfect vantage point to see where a career in real estate might go. For growth-minded realtors, he lays out the progression like this: “We want to take you from self-employed to business owner and eventually investor, where you will make money while you sleep.”

What’s unique about this kind of progression and proposal is that it comes from someone who’s walked the walk himself and has worked to set up the necessary infrastructure to do the same. Through his businesses, which range from painting and construction businesses to his brokerage work with the Keller Williams Neighbourhood Realty and his real estate team at Elevation Realty Network Inc., Dylan Suitor has covered the grounds of real estate, going so far as to test his mettle as a real estate investor. In all these fields, he’s had success.

There’s no reason why, with enough support behind them, other realtors won’t be able to follow suit. Moving from one career path doesn’t necessarily require foregoing another one; the industry remains the same, after all. It’s much easier to juggle being a real estate agent and a real estate investor than being a real estate investor and a classical music composer.

Plus, the better a real estate agent gets at their job, the more skills and contacts they have, the more opportunities open up for meeting potential partners, investors, or even whole businesses that can be acquired. The trick with growth is mentality. Those who want to grow professionally need to be vigilant for any opportunity to invest their efforts in a new direction. First, however, they need to have the right idea, to know that it’s an option for an agent to become an investor. Then, if they find support by joining a company headed by a person who’s already done it, even better.
