Luxury real estate agent Heather Bilyeu, one of the stars on Bravo’s Million Dollar Listing Los Angeles, is as business savvy as she is beautiful. From playing an integral role in transacting over a half billion worth of real estate to leveraging the tumultuous waters of reality television, Bilyeu has established herself as a skilled industry professional who has got what it takes to succeed. In fact, in addition to having been appointed as director of new development for her team, heading all new construction from beautiful modern estates to multi-unit condo projects, she’s also mentoring/training realtors and assistants on how to grow their own business and perfect their craft.
Amid the premier of the eighth season of Million Dollar Listing LA, which Bilyeu declares to be “unlike any other,” we checked in with this multi-tasking real estate mogul in-the-making for her thoughts on everything from living the LA luxury lifestyle to relationship advice. Here’s what she had to say:
JustLuxe: What does the word "luxury" mean to you?
Heather Bilyeu: Luxury is treating yourself well—whether that means buying something extravagant like a pair of fabulous shoes, handbags, a vacation, or indulging in something that not everyone has, like a rare piece of art, caviar or a home. Or, simply creating convenience for yourself like a driver, private jet or even a babysitter for the night. Luxury…is about treating yourself to something special that you truly enjoy.
