A Message From Jose Segarra
When I started in real estate in 1994, my first year I sold one house.
My second year, I sold two.
Like many agents starting out, I faced rejection, uncertainty, and the constant pressure of trying to build a business without knowing exactly how to do it.
What kept me going wasn’t talent or a big sales personality. In fact, I was a pretty reserved person and didn’t see myself as a “natural salesperson.”
What kept me going was something deeper — the belief that if I stayed committed, learned from others, and kept improving, real estate could give me the opportunity to build a life on my own terms.
But it wasn’t until I began working with a coach who helped me change the story I was telling myself—and eliminate limiting beliefs—that everything began to change.
Within a few years my business went from struggling to thriving. That experience shaped how I view real estate today.
Because I realized something important: Success in this business is rarely about talent alone. It’s about mindset, guidance, and the environment you’re in.
That realization is what led to the culture we’ve built at Homevets Realty.
My goal is simple.
To create the kind of environment I wish I had when I first started—one where agents are supported, coached, and encouraged to grow not only in their business, but in their lives.

3 Lessons From 30 Years in Real Estate
After more than three decades in real estate, thousands of families served, and years of mentoring agents, Jose Segarra has learned something important:
Success in this business rarely comes from talent alone.
Lesson #1 — Mindset Determines Success
When Jose began his career he sold one home his first year and two homes his second year.
Like many agents, he faced rejection and uncertainty.
The turning point came when he realized that the story we tell ourselves about our potential shapes our results.
When mindset shifts, performance follows.
Lesson #2 — The Right Guidance Changes Everything
Many agents struggle because they lack mentorship.
When Jose began working with a coach who helped him develop better strategies and eliminate limiting beliefs, his career transformed.
Within a few years he went from selling one home a year to averaging nearly ten homes per month.
That experience proved something powerful:
The right mentorship can change the trajectory of a career.
Lesson #3 — Real Estate Can Build an Extraordinary Life
For Jose, real estate was never just about selling houses.
It was about building the freedom to control his own destiny and live life on his own terms.
His journey eventually led him into leadership roles including:
• President – Fort Hood Area Association of REALTORS®
• Regional Vice President – Texas REALTORS®
• Mayor of Killeen
But it all started with one decision:
To keep going when others might have quit.
Why Most Agents Struggle in Real Estate
Every year thousands of people enter the real estate industry with big dreams.
But many leave within the first few years.
Not because they lack potential.
Most struggle because they are missing three things:
Clear Direction
Many agents are told to “go find clients” but never shown a clear business plan.
The Right Mindset
Rejection and uncertainty can create self-doubt.
Mentorship
Too many agents are left on their own to figure things out.
The Homevets Realty Difference
Homevets Realty was built to change that.
We believe agents deserve more than just a place to hang their license.
They deserve guidance, mentorship, and a clear path forward.
Our culture focuses on helping agents grow in three areas:
Clarity
Understanding your vision and building a business around it.
Confidence
Developing the mindset needed to overcome rejection.
Capability
Learning the strategies required to build a thriving real estate business.
When agents grow personally, their business growth follows naturally.
The Kind of Agents We’re Looking For
Homevets Realty is not for everyone.
And that’s intentional.
We are looking for agents who believe their career can be about more than just selling homes.
Agents who want:
• Personal growth
• Mentorship
• A clear path forward
• A meaningful career
You don’t need years of experience.
You simply need the willingness to grow.
