Compass’ Luxury and Sports & Entertainment divisions spoke with agents nationwide to explore how tennis is elevating the luxury real estate market, seamlessly integrating architecture and athleticism as excitement builds for the U.S. Open.
Brett Dickinson, a San Diego realtor and former professional tennis player, attributes his success in real estate to the mental resilience and strategic thinking honed on the court. “The mental toughness one develops on tour is second to none,” he says. “The experience of being a pro player on tour is living a series of mostly losses, a few victories here and there, and recovery.” He emphasizes that this mindset translates to real estate: “It doesn’t mean you always win, but if you are driven and able to problem solve in the moment, you can set you and your client up for success.”
Parsa Samii, a Long Island-based realtor and former pro player, credits his success to the discipline and strategic thinking honed on the court. “Transitioning from a former professional tennis player to a successful realtor has given me a unique set of skills and perspectives that set me apart in the competitive real estate market,” Samii reveals. His ability to read clients and anticipate their desires, combined with a relentless pursuit of excellence, has allowed him to thrive in the fast-paced world of luxury properties.
