To be the best, an agent must make sacrifices. Amit Dhawan admits his desire to excel in the Toronto market has caused him to miss “countless friends’ barbeques, dinner parties and birthdays” to focus on work. But after twice being named Agent of the Year, a President’s Circle Award winner and a Centurion Club member, Dhawan’s persistence has clearly paid off. “I have no regrets,” he says.
Dhawan urges Toronto-based agents both young and old to network with agents from outside the city. “It’s an important part of the business,” he says. “A lot of people move to the GTA from other parts of the country and the world. Knowing top agents in other locations helps to build stronger relationships and ultimately grow your business.”
