Let’s get to know Kyle Zene - Moore!
What are your current responsibilities and background?
As part of my daily responsibilities, I oversee the smooth running of our company's operations and provide support and training to my team. This encompasses managing real estate sales, leasing, and property management, in addition to serving my own clients. As far as background, I was born and raised in Boston, MA. I attended The O'bryant High and then Northeastern University, where I studied marketing. To stay current with the latest industry trends and regulations, I consistently seek out educational opportunities. This allows me to offer the most up-to-date advice and services to my clients.
Tell us more about your job or company - what led you to this focus?
My Company, Zander Realty Group, is a full service real estate brokerage and property management company. We are in our third year of business & we service buyers, sellers, landlords and tenants in MA, RI & GA. My passion for real estate began at a young age when my mom purchased our first home. Witnessing the process of buying property and watching how my mom was able to leverage it, gave me an understanding of the incredible impact homeownership can have on people’s lives. Now, I’m fortunate to be able to help others achieve their dreams of homeownership and assist them in investing wisely.

What advice would you give someone just starting in your industry?

Stay up-to-date on market trends: Real estate markets can be volatile and subject to fluctuations, so staying up-to-date on market trends is crucial to success. Subscribe to industry publications, attend local real estate events, and talk to other professionals in the industry to stay informed.
Get a mentor or coach: Starting a career in real estate can be challenging, and having a mentor can help you navigate the industry and accelerate your learning curve. A mentor can provide you with valuable insights, guidance, and support as you develop your skills and build your business.
