David’s path to becoming a real estate powerhouse

Janny David is a multifaceted entrepreneur, author and speaker. She grew up immersed in the real estate world, assisting her mother with contracts and client meetings from the age of 16. While at university, she earned her real estate licence and worked alongside her mother, gaining the necessary experience. This early exposure inspired her to pursue a career in real estate, leading her to establish her own company, Jay’dor Real Estate. "Real estate is really a career field that chose me more than I chose it," David reflected.Work routineA typical workday for David starts with prayer, meditation and exercise. At the office, she checks her emails and social media pages, prioritising urgent matters. Her week is carefully planned, with visits to the bank on Tuesdays to follow up on sales contracts and occasional trips to lawyers later in the week. "What I enjoy most is helping others," she said.Outside of work, David enjoys reading, particularly books by pioneers and trailblazers, which she finds inspirational. "I especially love 'Breaking Barriers' by Estelle Tjipuka," she shared.Despite her serious demeanour at work, David reveals a lighter side that her colleagues might not see. "A lot of people in my professional circle think I am reserved, but I am actually chatty and love to make jokes," she admitted.Stumbling blocks David’s most challenging project to date has been selling 32 homes in a short period - a task she underestimated but overcame through prayer and discipline. "Nothing beats the smile on your client's face when they are a first-time homeowner," she said. Had she not pursued real estate, she believes she would have become a computer scientist, given her university studies in computer science. She narrated that her motivation comes from her clients, friends and family, and she credits her own book 'How to Make Your First Million in the Real Estate Market' for encouraging her to persevere.For those starting in the corporate world, David advised cultivating self-awareness and staying true to oneself. "It’s a big world, and you can easily get lost in it, but if you stay true to yourself, you will make it through the challenging hurdles," she said.If she could pick up a new skill, David would choose to learn to play the piano. "There is just something about the piano that lifts your mood," she said, reflecting on her desire to add a creative outlet to her life.
