Real Estate is NOT a Get-Rich-Quick Scheme, It's a Long Game.

On this Episode of The 7th Voice Podcast, I had an eye-opening conversation with Richard, a top real estate professional in Canada and the Founder of RORE Group. In this insightful #podcast conversation, Richard shares his journey from being a young entrepreneur in Nigeria to becoming a successful real estate agent in Canada. We discus everything from managing expectations, building a lasting career, importance of mentorship, the pros & cons of owning  Real Estate vs. Business Ownership and and how to thrive in today’s market!
