This month we spotlight Oregon REALTORS® member Tanner Helm from Fred Real Estate Group in Bend, Oregon. Six years ago he took a leap of faith and got into the business. ” I think the most courageous thing I’ve done in my life was starting my real estate career. We had three kids under the age of four with no safety net, no back up plan. I put myself in a position where I was forced to be successful.”
Since then Tanner has been learning all he can about the business. His advice to someone just starting out? “Keep it simple, learn how to go get business before you spend time learning all of the minutia. Wake up every morning and go get hired.”
Tanner recently became involved with Oregon REALTORS® by volunteering for the Strategic Planning Committee. “I haven’t previously been involved, but I am very excited about opportunities to be a part of leadership teams in the future.”
Tanner keeps busy spending time with his wife and three children, but also finds time to enjoy archery, bowhunting and is a huge Dodger’s fan. His bucket list includes seeing all 162 Dodger’s games in one season! Go Tanner!
