Episode Details

May is Teacher Appreciation Month. Here at Between 2 Chairs, we appreciate teachers all year long. They are educating our kids, grandkids, current and future employees, service providers, bosses and everyone else your path may or may not cross. We also have a soft spot for teachers as real estate agents, and not just because Fernando was a high school teacher and we have a lot of current and former educators in our brokerage.

Teachers possess a unique set of traits that translate seamlessly into commercial real estate success. In this episode, we explore how skills like communication, organization, adaptability, and a passion for helping others give educators a competitive edge in CRE. Whether you’re a broker looking to recruit former teachers or an agent looking to develop these qualities yourself, we’ll break down what makes these traits valuable—and how to actively nurture them for long-term success.
