In this episode of the Inter Properties Podcast, we sit down with Aziz Abdelmadjid — a law enforcement sergeant with 17 years of experience and a managing broker in real estate.

Aziz shares how he successfully balances two demanding careers, explains why real estate is not a side hustle, and reveals how skills from police work — discipline, communication, psychology, and reading people — translate directly into real estate negotiations and client relationships.

We talk about time management, trust, personal branding, and what it really takes to build a long-term career in real estate while maintaining a full-time profession in law enforcement.

This episode is especially valuable for busy professionals, law enforcement officers, and anyone considering real estate as a serious career path.
