Over three years ago, we rebranded the RealtyNinja blog and called it “The Dojo” – since then, we’ve been publishing articles almost every single week.
A “Dojo” is a room or space where martial arts is studied and practiced.
We thought it was a fitting title, since we are Ninjas and since the objective of our blog articles was always to provide education & value to real estate agents; be it technical, theoretical, inspirational or philosophical.
A couple of weeks ago, we decided to put together a short video that would summarize some of the most important lessons we’ve covered in The Dojo since its inception. I’m happy to announce that video is officially here.
The video is just below this sentence, and below that is a brief transcript and all the links mentioned in the video. We hope you enjoy!
