From Broke To Broker - Real Estate: Real Stories

FROM BROKE TO BROKER Real Estate: Real Stories By Varun Ish Nanda What if real estate weren’t just about houses… but about healing? What if behind every sold sign lived a story of struggle, spirit, and silent prayers answered? From Broke to Broker is a memoir for the heart-centered hustler. For the dreamers with debt. For the believers who nearly gave up. And for anyone who knows that success isn’t just earned—it’s felt, surrendered to, and divinely timed. Varun Ish Nanda’s journey through California’s housing market isn’t just about climbing from burnout to broker. It’s about awakening. About trusting your gut when logic fails. About guiding families through more than just paperwork—through closures, grief, rebirth, and joy. Each chapter is a true story from the trenches of real estate—where clients became family, homes held spirits, and the business of closing deals became a vessel for something greater: human connection. You’ll walk with immigrant families trying to make it. Grandparents saying goodbye to lifelong homes. First-time buyers navigating fear. And a young man who chose purpose over profit again and again. You won’t find tactics or formulas here. You’ll find the truth. The kind that bleeds on bad days and blazes on the good ones. You’ll feel the energy of open houses, the heartbreak of broken escrows, and the quiet triumph of doing the right thing when no one’s watching. This is not a real estate book. This is a real-life book—told through real homes, real souls, and the lessons they left behind. If you’ve ever felt lost in your journey... If you’re craving more depth in your hustle... If you’ve been waiting for permission to lead with heart... Read this book. Let it remind you: You don’t choose a home. Sometimes, the home chooses you. A must-read for new agents, soulful entrepreneurs, and anyone ready to rewrite their story.
