Success Story: From Government Employee to Real Estate Agent



The sweet promise of lucrative returns borne out of a bustling Philippine real estate sector is one to be enjoyed not only by the property developers, but also by the ordinary Filipino.

As bright prospects and a bullish outlook define what is to become of the local property sector over the next few years, more potential investors are coming forward to cash in on that expected boom – an upward trend in the demand for residential and office spaces to be fuelled largely by increased investments and bustling economic activities.

And while the developers are long considered as the greatest beneficiary of this upward trend, there is also one other sector who silently reaps its fruits – the sales agents.

Take the case of Gabriel “Billy” Dominguez, who made a huge leap from being a government employee, to becoming a successful real estate sales agent, believing that a career in this sector holds huge opportunities for any individual. Today, Dominguez is president of his own real estate company called Green Circle Realty.

Dominguez established in 2006 Green Circle Realty, based on an optimistic premise that “housing is a basic need. There are so many people who want to acquire their own homes.”

Admittedly, one of the main factors that pushed Dominguez to pursue a career in the real estate sector was the lucrative commissions.

“While working as a government employee, I saw the need to augment my income. I told myself that my salary alone as a government employee would not be enough to provide for the needs of my growing family,” Dominguez shared.

Dominguez’s life-changing moments came when he was invited by a friend to attend a seminar on real estate selling, which he immediately accepted. Shortly afterwards, he became a part-time sales agent.

And as Dominguez was trying to learn the ropes of the business, it was then that he started to realize that he was earning more from his part-time work than from his regular job.

“This was the time I decided to resign from my government job and went full-time with my real estate selling. In selling, once you tap the potential buyers, there is always that opportunity to earn big. There is always that possibility of earning unlimited income,” Dominguez explained of his bold move.

Dominguez is so happy to have accumulated 22 rewarding years of experience in the real estate selling business.

“I have no regrets. A lot of the good things my family and I are enjoying right now came from this business that I have learned to love and enjoy doing,” he claimed.
“In an opportunity-based job like real estate selling, income can be unlimited because it is dependent on the opportunities captured by the sales agent. The more hardworking an agent is, the more he will earn. In a security-based job like employment, salary is fixed based on what is stated in the employment contract and the corresponding job description,” he explained.

“Undoubtedly, real estate selling is one of the most financially-rewarding endeavors one can engage in, but more than the financial rewards, the opportunity to be of help to many people, especially the homeless, is more fulfilling. As president of Green Circle Realty, I am happy and proud to have been instrumental in helping thousands of people own their homes,” Dominguez further shared.
As part of  Dominguez’s paying forward efforts, he encourages the learning of his trade by holding free seminars for enterprising individuals. These seminars are open to fresh graduates, employees, OFWs, entrepreneurs, self-employed & professionals, housewives, internet enthusiasts & salesmen from different industries.

To date, Green Circle Realty has hundreds of full-time and part-time sales agents who help continue improve the landscape of real estate selling in the country..
