Agents Really Sell Houses?

For years, critics have speculated that reality TV's real estate stars are faking it for the cameras. Us Weekly investigates

Agents Really Sell Houses?

Real estate agents who look like supermodels sashaying down spectacular glass staircases overlooking glistening infinity pools. Asking prices with so many zeros on, you don't even know how to say them out loud. Colleagues who spend more time flirting, fighting and eating in moodily lit small-plate restaurants than they do actually working.

It's fair to say the world of TV real estate shows is far from a reality for your average broker who has to, you know, sell houses for a living. Instead, shows like Netflix's Selling Sunset are all about the glamorous, often ridiculous cast of characters and their personal lives; it just so happens that they conduct them against a backdrop of glamorous, even more ridiculous properties. While we do hear numbers being thrown around and deals being done, these shows are way more about drama than detail. It begs the question, are these agents even making money from real estate, or are they just TV stars now? According to our research and on-the-record insights from many insiders, some of the most prominent stars haven't made as much as you'd think from real estate lately.

Sure, it's a tough market globally, but the truth is, many of them are too busy enjoying life in the spotlight to work the demanding hours that being a successful real estate agent demands.
