'We bid $45k over asking... [but] personal connections mattered more': Influential realtor closes the deal for a first time home buyer, even though they weren't the highest bidder
When you're not born into wealth, it's easy to be skeptical of the whole 'it's who you know, not what you know' philosophy in the working world. Although we've all seen nepo-babies rise to the top with nothing but a silver spoon and a pair of coattails to ride, most working folks don't fully realize the power of connections until we witness it in action.
The first-time home buyers in our next story got to experience a glimmer into the world of the 1% when they picked a realtor who had a foot in the door of the ivory tower. Although they bid $45k over asking on a bidding war for a house, it was the social connections their realtor was cultivating that pushed through the sale. Scroll for the full story of how one couple scored their dream house because they picked the right guy to back them up, demonstrating how in an unfair world, it feels good to have the scales occasionally tip in your favor.
A little nepotism goes a long way…
