On this episode of Controlling Your Chaos, Cortney sits down with Dallas Eddy, sales consultant with DR Horton, to discuss what happens when an 18-year-old bets on herself and wins. Dallas shares the journey that led her from skipping college after one semester to building a thriving real estate career, all while juggling multiple jobs, learning the industry from the ground up, and eventually finding her niche in new home construction.

She opens up about the challenges of being young in a relationship-driven industry, the structure that builder sales gave her career, and how she manages interruptions, follow-up, and work-life alignment like a pro. Dallas and Cortney also explore the ever-growing New Braunfels market, the importance of community over commission, and why controlling your chaos sometimes means ditching the apps and picking up a dry erase board.
