This week on the Over Ask Podcast, Matt Lionetti and The Broke Agent welcome Buying Beverly Hills star Farrah Brittany to the show.
As a founding member of The Agency and president of the Umansky Team, Farrah talks about how she got into the real estate industry 13 years ago—and why she originally thought it would be embarrassing to become a real estate agent.
She also shares how she found her identity and built so much confidence as an agent. Plus, how being on Netflix has affected her brand and her real estate business.
Later in the episode, she takes a call from her stepdad and business partner, Mauricio Umansky, and puts him on speaker for a brief guest appearance.
