Actors Who Are Real Estate Agents
Elizabeth Olsen
"I got my real estate license because I didn't want to work in a restaurant in New York, as a summer job. So I thought, I'll work in a real estate office," the WandaVision actress shared in an interview with W Magazine. "I was dealing with my sister's friend who was a realtor, and I dealt with his rental clients. And I would mispronounce streets in New York because I had just moved there, all the time."
