Leading a real estate team at FLP Realty13 years in real estate

On this road, I want to lead people who will go further than I have.

I walked into real estate in 2013. In 13 years I have been FLP Realty’s Top Advisor of the Year, and I have fallen three times. Since 2022 I have led a team at FLP Realty, helping people who want to start, and to start well, skip the detours I took.In real estate since 2013. Leading a team at FLP Realty since 2022, helping new people skip the detours I took.

02Leading people

My most important work now is leading people.

Doing well on your own gives you a good year. Developing people who are stronger than you is how the road goes far. I learned that at FLP Realty, and it is what I work at every day.

  1. 01

    The tuition I paid

    More than RM700,000 on teachers and courses, and six figures lost on a property I bought wrong. I’ll lay those lessons out for you.

  2. 02

    Where I fell

    In 2016, the first half of 2019 and 2020, I didn’t keep up with the market. I’ll show you where people fall before you get there.

  3. 03

    Someone who keeps her word

    In 2015 I joined the firm led by Fallon Loo Kah Cheng, Founder & CEO of FLP Realty. From her I learned that being brilliant on your own counts for little. Developing people better than you is what counts.

Why I chose FLP Realty

On 11 November 2015, my brother and I brought our team to FLP Realty. I chose to follow Fallon because, in my experience, she keeps her word. What she says she will do, she does.

“Being good on my own is nothing remarkable. When my people are better than me, that is truly remarkable.”

「我自己一个人厉害没什么了不起,我的人比我更厉害,才是真正的了不起。」

Fallon, as I remember her words

04Thirteen years

The wins and the falls, on one line.

  1. 2013 · June

    My brother brought me into buying and selling resale homes.

  2. 2013 · December

    My income from selling homes overtook photography. I went full-time and started learning from scratch.

  3. 2014

    GS Realty: Yearly 2014, 2015 · Top Personal Sales (Pre-Leader Ranking) · 2nd Runner Up; 2014 3rd Quarter · Top Volume Case · Champion. Promoted to Team Leader the same year.

  4. 2015 · 11 · 11

    Joined FLP Realty with my team and moved into new projects.

  5. 2016–17

    I fell behind the market, and my numbers kept sliding.

  6. 2016 · September

    Began hosting FLP Realty’s weekly meeting, which I did until 2022.

  7. 2017 · 9 · 21

    At dawn on Low’s Peak, Mount Kinabalu, I raised the FLP Realty flag.

  8. 2018

    Sixth in personal sales.

  9. 2019 · first half

    Hit rock bottom.

  10. 2019 · second half

    Came back: Top Advisor of the Year 2019 · Champion.

  11. 2020

    During the MCO I didn’t move my selling online, and fell to the bottom again.

  12. 2021

    Moved my selling online: Top Advisor of the Year 2021 · 8th Place.

  13. 2022 · January

    Began leading a team at FLP Realty.

Look only at 2019 and you’d think I won all the way. Look only at 2020 and you’d think I was finished. Neither is true.

Read the career guide

05Thinking of joining

Before you step in, see the work clearly.

What the work really is, how to become a REN, how income works, what to ask before you choose a team: it’s all in the career guide. Read it first, then decide whether we talk.

Buying or selling

I once bought the wrong property.

It cost me six figures. So when I show you a home, I’ll tell you everything I see, including what you’d rather not hear.

The property guides I write

The core of the Milky Way across the whole frame: dark dust lanes and countless stars, in a 479-second exposure.

Once, all I wanted was to be a photographer.

06Photography

In 2013 I stepped into real estate to meet more people who might need a photographer. In those years my photographs were recognised at PX3 in Paris and at the IPA. Now I look at homes, and at people, with the same eyes, and I teach my team to explain a home clearly with photographs and video.

You’ve stayed with this frame for 0 seconds. Its shutter stayed open for 479.

07Tuition

I never paid for photography school. Later, I paid more than RM700,000 to learn.

I have learned from 12 real estate teachers and 17 teachers of metaphysics, and paid tuition in every one of these:

  • Photography
  • Design
  • Marketing
  • Copywriting
  • Video
  • Sales
  • DISC
  • NLP
  • Human behaviour
  • Public speaking
  • Leadership
  • CEO programmes
  • Eastern metaphysics
  • Western metaphysics

One fee was never paid in a classroom. I once bought the wrong property myself, and lost six figures.

So now, when I work with a client, I treat them as the last person I may ever get to help. When I work with partners, I lay out every fee I have paid, so they don’t have to pay it again.

Looking up through the treetops, the Milky Way slants across the night sky between the branches.

08The unseen homework

I photograph the stars. I also study the old ways of reading them.

Seventeen teachers, East and West: feng shui, BaZi and Zi Wei Dou Shu among the Eastern traditions; numerology and tarot among the Western. I treat it as a discipline, a way of reading people and timing, and of looking back at myself.

East West
  • 时空风水
  • 八字
  • 紫微斗数
  • 梅花易数
  • 数字奇门
  • 十二神数
  • 六爻占卜
  • 周易堪舆
  • 生命灵数
  • 生涯运数
  • 毕达哥拉斯倒三数
  • 维特塔罗
  • 托特塔罗
  • 水晶占卜
  • 数字牌占

The names in the sky are the ones I learned them by.

I don’t use it to predict property prices for you, and it is never how I choose who joins my team. Believe in it or not, we’ll talk about homes and careers the same way.

09In their words

Good years and bad, they met the same person.

Not the hard-sell type. Even after we paid our down payment he was still willing to assist us.
Home buyer (own stay) · 2019
可以感受到你是真心帮我们争取这间屋子,而不是为了卖而卖。

TranslatedWe could feel you were truly fighting to get us this home, not selling just for the sake of a sale.

Buyer · 2021
We truly appreciate your support, guidance and patience in helping us secure our home.
Buyer · 2026
第一次见到那么真诚的 Property Agent。……谢谢您细心地、慢慢地把所有细节解释给我们听。

TranslatedThe first time I’ve met such a sincere property agent. … Thank you for explaining every detail to us so carefully, and so patiently.

House-hunting client · 2019
经过了这几个月,我也知道我没有选错 agent。

TranslatedAfter these few months, I know I didn’t choose the wrong agent.

Buyer · 2021
谢谢你在这两个月帮我买了栋房子。本来还以为没机会了。

TranslatedThank you for helping me buy a house in these two months. I’d thought there was no chance.

Daybreak above a sea of clouds: the horizon turns from orange to violet as the sun is about to rise.

10Daybreak

Some roads take a long time before you see the light.

If you want to start in real estate, I’ll walk the first stretch with you. If you want to buy or sell, I’ll listen first.
