Dear Guru,
I am Finance and Accounting personnel for more than 10 years. I just completed my RES course and plan to get Real Estate Salesperson licence and run it on PART TIME BASIS first.
Could you please kindly advice that where else in real estate market world (e.g.: REIT? Trust C0? Or Real Estate Agency? ) or commercial company allowed staff to do FINANCE& ACCOUNTING JOB ON FULL TIME BASIS and at the same time also allowed staff to do PART-TIME REAL ESTATE SALESPERSON job?
I am more on layman person that still preferred to settle for basic living cost first rather than take full time job as real estate salesperson with Zero income.
Thanks for your help on clearing my doubts.

Hi, my name is William Goh, Andrew Yap’s manager/mentor. I am using Andrew’s, who is my business partner, account to reply you.
I can fully understand your concerns to plunge into a full time agent with zero income to cover your basic living costs. In the meantime, hope you will receive good news on your RES results soon. Your more 10 years experience in finance & accounting is indeed an asset for this industry because as agents we need to compute the financial details of our clients, such as their asset progression journey. Anyway, it good to kick-start as a part-timer to have a hand-on experience of this journey. On the other hand I have team members who plunged into this industry full time and they are with me for more than 5 years already, bought new car and invested in property too. Joining the right agency, PropNex, Singapore largest SGX listed real estate agency, with structured training (zero cost) road map, with proven results, good management supports and unselfish sharing cultures, greatly make a difference to chart success in this industry. I would like to suggest we arrange for 1-1 meet up for me to share more about this industry, strictly no obligations.

Dear aspiring realtor,

Being a part time realtor is fine, as long as you have a plan on how you wish to run this business while juggling with your full time employment. Many realtors without a full time employment are not performing as well as some part time realtor, therefore it is the ability to focus and commit to the business that makes the difference between a good and mediocre realtor.

It will definitely be great if any real estate related company has an opening for a job that is related to your financial and accounting background, but it is really subjected to availability, therefore with respect to a full time employment job, you are free to look out for opportunities and also look into the possibility on holding the practising license as a realtor. Most private companies do allow as long as there is no conflict of interest.

I have a team of part time realtors supporting me with the running of this business and if you wish to discuss more about how you can run this business based on your preferred commitment level, we can definitely discuss more. Furthermore, we also have training programs available regularly to equip our associates with the latest market trend and skills set as well as technological updates available.

I have been in the real estate business since 2009, with more than 10years of experience serving the Singapore real estate market.

I am very active in the residential segment of Singapore real estate market, having transacted hundreds of deals from HDBs to private condominiums and landed properties in Singapore, and have handled many unique cases in sales and purchases as well as rental deals.

Over the years, I have also established a network reaching out to more than 9,400 expatriates, bringing my market presence to both in and outside of Singapore. This has created an additional exposure when I manage my client's portfolios, on top of the conventional on and offline platforms, where other estate agents are relying on. This has allowed me to consistently convert leads into results.

With an evolving market, where change is the only constant, I have also been investing in upgrading of my knowledge and skills sets to improve myself and meet the demands of current and future market.

We are offering our clients a complimentary first consultation without obligations (Absolutely FREE!). Schedule for your FREE session today!

If you are planning to grow your real estate business and looking for a mentor, I can share with you more over coffee. There are different approaches to grow your real estate business depending on your profile and aptitudes.

There is no problem keeping a 9-5 part-time day job while growing a full-time 24x7 real estate business. Once your priority is right, we can talk about how to execute the plans. Risk and rewards if directly proportional. You do not need to give up your day job. It is your fear and perhaps a lack of a business plan that I worry. That can be addressed.

I have a successful agent managing two profitable businesses and still doing well in real estate business.

I am Kevin Chung, a Senior Division Director with Knight Frank, a global real estate consultancy. I founded DARE Group and we have good experience in luxury residential properties as well as a strong DARE Business Spaces group with sub groups focusing in Offices, Retail and Industrial. We serve a network of High Networth Investors and our group consist of many mid career professionals joining us to develop their Real Estate advisory career.

Call or WhatsApp me 96855070  for a non obligation discussion on how DARE Group can help you achieve more in a smarter way.
