Yeo Pek Kee<\/mark><\/a> graduated from Curtin University, Perth and came back to Malaysia where she acquired a sales job selling lubrication and grease to manufacturing factories. <\/p>\n\n\n
\n
$\"real$ <\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n
She had been in 2 other sales jobs before entering the real estate industry as an investor. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
She invested in 2 properties and got immediate great returns. This further piqued her interest in the industry and it was from then on that she joined the market in a more active role. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
She had been in the sales industry for 15 years before joining IQI.<\/p>\n\n\n
\n
$\"real$ <\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n
\n
I chose IQI because of their warm and welcoming culture. We started out small and continued to grow; the rest is history.<\/p>\nYeo Pek Kee<\/mark><\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
1. Get to know Yeo Pek Kee from IQI Ace!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
I am one of the Heads of Team in IQI Realty here in Malaysia. <\/p>\n\n\n
\n
$\"real$ <\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n
IQI is the very first real estate company that I have worked with and I have been working with them for more than 6 years now. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
I have to say, it has been a wonderful journey. It had its fair share of challenges and obstacles along the way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
But in the end, I was able to persevere and triumph, and I had a lot of fun along the way. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n
IQI has shown me how, right from the start.<\/p>\nYeo Pek Kee<\/mark><\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
2. #1 tool for real estate agents: education and training<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\n
As a real estate agent, your each moment is spent working for yourself. <\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
This means managing your own<\/strong> office work, paperwork, finding leads, developing relationships, managing contacts, and dealing with clients. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Honestly, I think both education and training are of great importance<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Education is the foundation of your career <\/strong>and training helps prepare you for the market<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
For example, the market training we receive gives us insight into both the sentiments of the people and all the activities around us that help us become better agents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/iframe>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-3-what-to-prepare-to-become-an-agent-courses-and-fees\">3.
