Real estate is rarely about property alone. It’s about people, timing and trust, and for Will Hammett, that’s exactly what drew him to the industry.
The newest addition to the Realmark Urban sales team, Will was attracted by the variety that real estate offers. No two clients are at the same stage of their journey and no two homes are ever quite alike. That constant change keeps the work engaging and demands adaptability, something Will sees as a strength rather than a challenge.
For him, success in real estate isn’t defined by volume or visibility. It’s defined by trust. Every time someone asks for help to buy or sell a home, they’re placing confidence in their agent to guide them through one of life’s most significant decisions. Continuing to earn that trust, and handling it with care, is what Will believes signals real success. Do the right things consistently, he says, and the results tend to follow.
Since joining Realmark Urban, Will has found his rhythm within a culture built on shared experience and generosity. He speaks highly of the depth of knowledge across the network, spanning residential sales, property management, strata and commercial real estate. Whether through informal conversations or more structured guidance, support is readily offered, creating an environment where learning feels natural and collaborative rather than forced.
That team-first mindset has been one of the most defining aspects of his early months. Working toward shared goals, supporting one another and leaning on collective expertise doesn’t just make the job easier, it sharpens performance for everyone involved.
There have been a few surprises along the way too. Real estate, it turns out, is a far more physical job than many expect. From door knocking and letter dropping to simply being out and about in the community, the role keeps agents on their feet. Will jokes he’s already gone through a few pairs of shoes, but admits it’s a small price to pay for the daily connection with people and place.
As Will continues to build his career with Realmark Urban, his focus remains clear: work hard, earn trust and stay connected to the community you serve. Everything else grows from there.
