Agent Partner Success Stories

We recently interviewed Kris from Dreamvest Realty to find out how she continues to successfully close deals despite the pandemic. In March this year, Kris started her career as a real estate agent in search of new opportunities.

Shortly after, the Malaysian government enforced Movement Control Order (MCO) nationwide on 18 March to prevent the spread of COVID-19. All agents including Kris were faced with a massive challenge – how to navigate property viewings and close deals despite the pandemic.

Undeterred, she quickly shifted from offline to online channels to continue engaging with her customers. During this time, Kris also spent much of her time learning new skills through webinars and training courses which focused on property trends and online marketing. 

Despite being new in the industry and faced with unexpected challenges, Kris’s proudest achievement is when she accomplished 13 closed deals in the month of May. Her advice to new agents is to give your best service to each customer and be willing to work hard, success will come to you.   

A special thank you to Kris for sharing her story!
