Elizabeth Olsen Reveals She Has Real Her Estate License, Plus More Celebrities Who Are Agents

Elizabeth Olsen

The WandaVision actress revealed to W Magazine in August that she's secretly skilled in real estate — and her older sisters, Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen, have something to do with it.

"I got my real estate license because I didn't want to work in a restaurant in New York, as a summer job. So I thought, I'll work in a real estate office," she told the publication for their second annual TV Portfolio. "I was dealing with my sister's friend who was a realtor, and I dealt with his rental clients. And I would mispronounce streets in New York, because I had just moved there, all the time."

Ramona Singer

The Real Housewives of New York star took to Instagram in December to share that she will be joining Douglas Elliman as a real estate broker on the team of broker Michael Lorber.

"Real estate broker in training," the mom of one captioned a photo of herself in a high-rise apartment, posing in front of glass walls that show off a view of the New York City skyline at sunset.

In addition to the new real estate venture, Singer also spends like working on her jewelry company, anti-aging skincare collection and Pinot Grigio line.

The dancer says she plans to use her license for personal investments, as well as to "help others with their real estate needs too."

Who knows, maybe she'll call up Drew Scott, her partner on DWTS in 2017, for a little advice!

The actress used to star on soap operas like Days of Our Lives and All My Children, but has pivoted to selling homes in L.A. (and, notably, the San Fernando Valley).
