Rowan Costa
Who is Rowan?
“When someone goes on to an about me page what are you looking for when clicking on this page?”
I asked that exact question to a colleague of mine and it was because I wanted to please the readers.
Hi, My name is Rowan and I am a professional people pleaser. It sounds ridiculous but it’s true. I hate being late, and especially hate making others wait for me.
My real estate career started when I was 18 years old. I was the youngest real estate agent in Winnipeg at the time. Now this single-handedly terrified me and motivated me. While some applauded and congratulated me for my success, others weren’t so nice.
My passion for the industry allowed me to do things that I already loved: Showing homes, helping clients, making the simple dream of owning a home a reality.
But the negative comments and the doubt allowed me to push through the tough moments, especially through my first year.
Life Outside of the Industry
There really isn’t one… LOL
They say the real estate brain doesn’t turn off and its true. It’s not like a 9-5 where you clock out and not have to worry about work until the next morning.
It never stops, but there are things that I do that are just completely unrelated to my career.
I’m competitive inside and outside of the real estate industry, and that is no different when I play and coach volleyball.
I’ve had the pleasure coaching 16u-17u boys volleyball in the last few years and OH MY does it teach you patience. It truly is a great experience and it allows me to take a second away from the industry and give back to the youth sports community that I grew up in.
