Having spent over 20 years in the data science field before becoming a realtor, I was overjoyed that many of those skills translated well to real estate to provide meaningful market analysis and suggestions to home buyers. When I became a realtor, I quickly realized that the real estate industry had no shortage of numbers. No surprise, right? Still, by paying careful attention to certain numbers, I found I could offer clients a more factual and realistic perspective to help put together tactics to find and obtain the most house for their money.
