We had the good fortune of connecting with Carlos Pulido and we’ve shared our conversation below.
Hi Carlos, can you walk us through the thought-process of starting your business?
I always had a 9 to 5 and a side hustle. Corporate America got to a point where I had no control over my time, my schedule would specify what time I could go to the bathroom, and when I could or could not take a vacation. When my daughter was born I knew that had to change, I did not want to miss special milestones just because someone else would not approve my time off request.
Can you give our readers an introduction to your business? Maybe you can share a bit about what you do and what sets you apart from others?
Real Estate is a field with a high turnover rate, meaning many agents leave the industry within the first 5 years. It is not easy, I do not have a 9 to 5, this is a 24/7. I still would not have it any other way. I work hard, I hustle, and I put in long hours. On vacation, I take my laptop and yes sometimes I have to step aside and make a call, write up an offer, or reply to an email. However, I can take off on vacation whenever I want to, I manage my time, just like there are days with long hours, and I am able to be there for every school activity of my daughter, every competition, trip, etc. As far as my biggest professional accomplishment, in 2023 I became the recipient of The Best of Florida Award in real estate agents and teams, also I was featured in Apple News in the Top 10 Real Estate Agents in Florida article.
If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
I would first take him on a boat ride from the Miami River to Biscayne Bay to see the world-famous private islands and mansions of rich and famous movie stars. After that a great night out in Wynwood, dinner in Kush restaurant, and ending with drinks in Shoots bar.
