How Did You Become a Multifamily Broker or Agent?

[Jordan Decuir]

To all of the multifamily brokers and agents, how did you get your start in the business? I have obtained a Texas real estate license currently in Inactive status and am reviewing broker sponsorship in the Houston area and am curious to hear from experienced brokers and agents about how they got into focusing on multifamily transactions as opposed to transactions focused on single family, owner-occupied homes. I am sure that these are two very different worlds with very different clientele characteristics.
