Here, Priscilla speaks with Haute Residence about her Real Estate journey and finding her purpose in the industry.
I came to the United States from Rio de Janeiro when I was 19 years old. At that time I decided that Veterinary school wasn’t for me (go figure!) and decided to take a break from college to travel and learn another language. I landed in Florida and soon I was traveling cross country learning more about this beautiful place. From Utah to California, to Hawaii, to Vegas, and back to Miami… I lived everywhere! As time went by, I decided to create roots. I opened a fitness clothing company out of my garage in California and in no time, I was selling to 28 countries. I then moved back to Miami and opened retail stores in Sunny Isles and South Beach. Sales have always been my passion and what I know to do the best; however, I was missing a purpose and one day I realized that what Steve Jobs once said is the ultimate truth: “Your career will make a big part of your life and the only way to be happy is to do what you love.” I sold my clothing business and decided to start selling dreams. Owning a Home is a dream! It’s the place you go back to every night, your shelter, that’s where you raise your family, that’s where you recharge. I found my calling, I don’t want to just sell, I have a purpose now… I want to make dreams come true!
I didn't just show him my knowledge of the market but went the extra mile to provide a service no other realtor was doing at that moment.
Miami has always attracted people from all over the world! This intensified after 2020 when many people resorted to working from home. Great weather and state income tax savings mean that many Americans relocated to Miami and are here to stay.
