Many people are uncomfortable with change, but Kaita Perez figured, if you\342\200\231re going to change, may as well go big.
Having just given birth to her first child, daughter Vivian, Kaita changed careers as well, parlaying her love of helping people into a real estate license, and a chance to become involved in what for many will be one of the most consequential decisions of their lives.
\342\200\234I had been wanting to pursue real estate for several years but was always too nervous to take the risk,\342\200\235 Kaita says. \342\200\234For some reason, having my daughter gave me the push that I needed to finally sign up for classes and get my real estate license. I suppose I thrive on chaos, and thought, \342\200\230Why not add something else to the mix?\342\200\231\342\200\235
Vivian doesn\342\200\231t know her own strength.
But real estate did seem a natural fit for Kaita, whether an infant put it up to her or not. Growing up, Kaita\342\200\231s mom insisted that any job worth doing was worth doing right. At the time, this inspirational message was more applicable to, say, the applied science of setting the table, but it of course translates well into the world of real estate.
\342\200\234I have always been extremely determined to succeed at anything I do,\342\200\235 Kaita says. \342\200\234I am very driven, detail oriented, and will do whatever needs done to accomplish a task. Specifically as it relates to real estate, I am not driven to just make a sale \342\200\223 I want to ensure my clients completely understand the processes in a transaction and I want to help them make decisions that will benefit them not only now, but also in the future.\342\200\235
Kaita has certainly been well qualified to pursue any task she might choose. Her love of helping people led her to consider a career in nursing, but due to a bit of an aversion to blood, she felt she was better suited to becoming a real estate agent, a job that only infrequently involves the treatment of open wounds.
After graduating summa cum laude with honors from Shippensburg University, Kaita taught school for several years before moving on to become an estimating coordinator in the construction industry, a natural precursor to real estate \342\200\224 which comes with an added social element.
\342\200\234I love a good adrenaline rush and I think selling real estate gives me that,\342\200\235 Kaita says. \342\200\234It\342\200\231s exciting to help someone find their home and I value the friendships that I have made with clients during the process. My husband (Mark) always jokes that I never stop talking, so being in real estate just gives me a great excuse now to be talking 24/7.\342\200\235
With Mark and Vivi, Kaita also enjoys outdoor activities \342\200\224 camping, hiking, fishing, going to the beach. \342\200\234It\342\200\231s funny how ever since we had Vivi it\342\200\231s like my life started over in the sense that all of the small things in life are new and exciting because you\342\200\231re experiencing it through someone else\342\200\231s eyes,\342\200\235 she says.
It\342\200\231s the same fresh perspective Kaita gives to all her clients, making each sale a fun and exciting experience for all involved. No surgery required.
