What does it really take to build a real estate business from scratch, in a new country, with no safety net and no shortcuts?

In this episode of Elite Real Estate Agents of SEQ, host Adam Bell sits down with Sam Baweja, founder of Forever Real Estate, to unpack one of the most authentic journeys in Gold Coast real estate.

Arriving in Australia from India at just 18 years old, Sam started where many do, working at McDonald’s, before carving out a path into real estate through sheer discipline, people skills, and an unwavering belief in playing the long game. Today, he runs a fast-growing agency in Carrara, manages over 200 properties and is known for putting relationships and long-term wealth ahead of quick wins.

In this episode, Sam shares:

How relationships, not transactions, built his entire business
Why he sometimes advises clients not to sell
What “playing the long game” really means for homeowners and investors
How Forever Real Estate grew from a home office into a Carrara-based agency
Why trust, timing, and preparation matter more than hype

Whether you’re a Carrara homeowner, an investor thinking long-term, or simply curious about what modern real estate looks like when it’s done right, this conversation offers clarity, perspective, and genuine insight.
