Today we’d like to introduce you to Tre Manchester
Hi Tre, it’s an honor to have you on the platform. Thanks for taking the time to share your story with us – to start maybe you can share some of your backstory with our readers?
My story is a bit of a winding path. I’ve always held many interests, and fortunately I’ve been blessed to realize a lot of them professionally. Before real estate, I was a film & commercial producer and director. My company made and sold feature films around the world, and on the commercial-front I had the privilege of working with several large brands on their campaigns. Looking back, that career primed me in my transition to real estate–there are so many soft skills that overlap.
Can you talk to us a bit about the challenges and lessons you’ve learned along the way. Looking back would you say it’s been easy or smooth in retrospect?
There are always peaks and valleys. It was smooth in the sense that my support system never wavered. My family, my wife, each step in my journey has seen those closest to me support every crazy venture I’ve pursued. It’s them I’m most grateful for. The biggest struggles for me have been things I can’t control (which I call the “Weather”). Things like interest rates or election years…all you can do is navigate them and creatively solve problems.
We’ve been impressed with Lively Charleston Properties, but for folks who might not be as familiar, what can you share with them about what you do and what sets you apart from others?
I’m part of Lively Charleston. We’re unique in that we view ourselves not really being a part of the “real estate” industry. We like to say we’re more of a hospitality business in that we don’t buy and sell homes…we help PEOPLE buy and sell homes. There has been a distinctive shift in how we operate when we started viewing our company through that lense. Our team has been incredibly resilient over the years and our business model is constantly developing and growing with time, but the core identity of our team has stayed true. That comes down to people: both agents who want to be a part of the mission and our clients who align with our core beliefs.
