Who am i
Hi. my name is Alan Wee. I’m a property agent with ERA.
I started my real estate career in late 2009. Back then, I was recently retrenched and jobless. Finding a job was very tough back then. I took a leap of faith and joined ERA as a professional housing agent. My first 7 months was disastrous. I was firing blank bullets and not knowing what I was doing. I had sleepless nights and I wonder why did I forgo a stable employment to go into uncertainty! During those initially months, I only closed a few miserable deals that couldn’t even cover my living expenses. I was always wondering how this can even be a career?
Deep in my heart, I knew that is the job that can help me to achieve a career breakthrough. I kept faith in myself. I read books, upgrade myself through training and observing how experiences agents approach their business. I learn through trail and errors. Through heartache and countless pain. Slowly, with grit determination and hard work over the years. I slowly mastered the art of selling and progressed to become a consistent top achiever in ERA.
Now, my primary focus is on residential properties that comprises of HDB, condominiums to landed properties. I am blessed to be in ERA where I can leverage on the company branding and various platforms to achieve breakthrough results.
Over the past 12 years, my secrets to success in this business are summaries in the Sales Success part of this website. I hope I can enlighten you through my own experiences.
Here, I believe that success can be duplicated. I hope to impart my skills to those that aspire to achieve the same success as me. Come Join me. Your Success Begins with ERA!

Yes. You still can do sales. But your sales commission is directly proportion to your drive.

I am afraid property sales is like running your own business. You need to invest time and effort to see results. In the short term, you may have to live on your saving before you see results.
How Much Can I Potentially Earn?
The sky the limit! It is possible to earn more than a million dollar in a year if you adopted the right strategies and lots of hard work. On another extreme. You could be scoring zero sales and throw in the towel as soon as you get in.
