Are you neglecting your personal business development because you think you don't have enough time?

In this episode of Mastering Luxury with Sandra, host Sandra Rathe sits down with Karen Briscoe, an elite luxury real estate agent based in McLean, Virginia, who has sold over a billion dollars in real estate! Karen shares her incredible journey from working in land development during the Texas savings and loan crisis to becoming a partner on a team closing $100 million a year in the early 2000s.

Karen breaks down her proven strategies for thriving in the luxury market, explaining why an agent's "soft skills" (connecting with people) are just as important as their "hard skills" (market knowledge). She also discusses the power of a true mentor-mentee relationship, why top-tier agents must constantly adapt to new technologies, and the brilliant concept behind her book, Real Estate Success in Five Minutes a Day.
