“In real estate, your reputation is worth more than your credit score. 🏡✨”

Here’s why:

🔑 Be proactive in every deal — don’t let avoidable mistakes cost you.

🔑 Protect your lender and they’ll keep trusting (and funding) you.

🔑 Your long-term success depends more on relationships than numbers on paper.

💡 Pro tip: In this business, lenders remember how you handle problems. Guard your reputation — it’s your most valuable asset.
