Today we’d like to introduce you to Sara Robles.
Sara, we appreciate you taking the time to share your story with us today. Where does your story begin?
I am a Realtor, a Business Owner, and a TV Personality for Real Estate Essentials on both ABC4 Utah and Telemundo Utah. In life, I have always been the kind of person that keeps wanting to learn more, and with that comes self and carrier growth. I love learning and educating myself and my kids, as they’ve been with me through my journey. Yes, this entrepreneur is also a busy momma. I myself have 5 children, and my husband has 3 more. We work together to raise, educate, and enjoy them as much as possible. I started working for a casino at the age of 18 for a minimum wage of 5.85 an hour at the time. I will never forget, that I worked 6 days a week, plus I taught ESL to adults in the evenings. From there, I continued to grow within the company until I reached Casino Manager. I overcame lots of criticism for being a female Table Games Manager(Pit Boss) in a world of men. During this time, I grew as a leader, and not only did I earn everyone’s respect, but I proved to be fair, kind, and extremely knowledgeable in my field. Along the way I had several mentors and professionals around me that continued teaching me and helped me grow, I learned to appreciate every piece of advice, and therefore whenever I can, I give others advice if I see that I can help in any way. Just like others once did for me.
While I continued to grow in the casino industry, I thought to myself, “why don’t I open up my own business?” (I know, as if I didn’t have enough going on right) So I traveled 130miles every day off to school to get my nail license. After much practice, I opened and ran a successful nail shop. Once moving to Utah, I decided to follow my path to something that I’m so passionate about, and have been for a long time, Real Estate. This was a long time coming. I’ve always loved remodels, and projects. With my husband owning a construction company, I’m always around different projects of his, so I decided to hop on. Every time I walk into a showing, I get visions of what I would love to do with that space. The best feeling of all is when I see my clients happy and excited about their new homes. I’m a true believer in the phrase “hard work pays off.” I like to add to that, that we live in the land of opportunity where everything is possible, we are very fortunate to live in this great nation that offers you everything, but you’ve gotta want it. The only thing that will hold you back will be yourself by not putting in the work.
Would you say it’s been a smooth road, and if not what are some of the biggest challenges you’ve faced along the way?
Sometimes it feels like being a woman in the business world is a challenge on its own. It seems like at times I’ve had to prove myself more than any man would have just for being a female. I’ve had several challenges in life, one of them being having been a single mother along at one point and overcoming an abusive relationship. It took a lot to walk away, but I was strong enough to walk away.
As you know, we’re big fans of Sara Robles Realtor, TV Personality for Real Estate Essentials on ABC4 UT and Telemundo UT powered by Top Equity Realty, For our readers who might not be as familiar what can you tell them about the brand?
I specialize in home sales and investment properties. My strength is home selling as I work with my clients to improve the look of their homes, making the home more desirable to a larger market. I thrive in taking the marketing of my homes to the next level by doing so in several states, and on social media, and bringing them on TV where more than 20,000 viewers watch.
What do you think about happiness?
My family! I love spending time conversating with each other, and being a Realtor allows me to do just that since I can work from literally anywhere. I try and dedicate time to my kids, but also try and make time for mommy and daddy time as we love traveling to different places and growing as a couple as well. I love being married to an amazing man who is not only my work partner, my travel partner but my best friend.
