I Just Sold a $2.6 Million Listing. Here’s What I Did Next

I just closed a $2.6 million listing in San Francisco.

I’m thrilled for my sellers, and I’m proud of the work it took to get there.

But I want to tell you what I did when my commission came in.

I moved a set percentage straight into investments—before I spent a dollar of it.

That’s my Profit First rule. I decide the percentage ahead of time, then follow the rule with every commission.

A big closing can feel like wealth. But a commission is income. The money you keep and invest is what helps build wealth over time.

If you’re an agent, pick your percentage before your next closing. Start with an amount you can stick to, and make the transfer part of your closing routine.

What’s your plan for your next commission?
