The real estate industry is one of the most lucrative industries in the world. While other business sectors tend to buckle and reel from various economic recession and turmoil, real estate has remained strong and manages to deal with the damage that downtime has been giving most of the world.

Young and aspiring agents and companies should never lose hope in these trying times especially since these circumstances have effectively changed the lives of several men who made it really big and became overnight millionaires through this industry.

These brave men should be the main reason why people involved in real estate should never give up and always look for something to smile about. Remember, these guys didn\’t start in the business as rich, rather they started with only a few dollars in hand plus a dream to make it big in the future.

Here are some of the more famous real estate tycoons:
