Hello, I would like to introduce Jerrod Prather. Broker/ Agent of Remax-Rice Realty. His office is located in Eunice, La. We asked Jerrod a few questions and this is what he had to say!

What would you say to millennials who consider this an “easy” profession to get into?

Real Estate is a very unique profession that is not for the faint of heart.  It is very time consuming and requires continuous education.  Attention to detail is a must and organization is vital.  Those that choose to remain in the industry do find it very rewarding as they fulfill the needs of their clients.  

What is your favorite thing about your job?

My favorite thing about my job –  Every property is different, each client has certain needs; real estate is a challenging and rewarding profession indeed.

Sheri Bajat is more than an agent/ referral partner. This business can get stressful, but Sheri’s positive outlook is always a blessing to help me keep things in perspective. Her heart is for Every client that she represents. I am so blessed to call her friend. Here is a little more about Sheri!

How did you get your start in real estate?

I began my Real Estate journey over 25 years ago in property management, then on to becoming an investor buying and selling, Acquiring rental properties, literally all hands on. Received my Real Estate License 7 years ago to serve the retail market. These milestones have taught me the tools I need to serve the client.

What would you say to millennials who consider this an “easy” profession to get into?

My advise to millennial’s who look at this profession as “easy” would be “don’t get into real estate”. It requires a great deal of discipline, integrity, patience, and understanding the law. Assisting a client on the purchase of a new home is one of the most important decisions they will make in their lives. A good agent, listens, learns, and targets the goal of the client using the tools and experience we train for everyday. Your job is to educate, navigate, and protect your client through closing.

What is your favorite thing about your job?

I have several favorite things about my job, but my most favorite is the journey I take with my clients. As the saying goes “It’s not the destination, it’s the journey”. Changing lives, seeing the joy at closing, the relief of good decisions made, and the empowerment of knowledge felt by the client are the most rewarding. Every single deal is unique in it’s own way! No two are alike.

Integrity, Disciplined, Achiever.
