Why I quit Real Estate

[@JevenDovey]

Awesome. Excited to see where you're going with the channel. Gotta follow your passion otherwise you'll burn out on this platform. I think as creators its important to continually evolve and not get stuck doing one thing forever.

[@kishanell]

I’m super excited to see your vlogs again! I remember watching your vlogs back when I was living in South Dakota. I was in university, debating moving to NYC when I graduated; I really connected with your ambition and drive. Now I’m a KZbinr with one million subscribers, and I just moved from New Zealand to Los Angeles! Lots of love, Erik. Keep up the fantastic work, and keep following your heart. 🥰 - Shanell

[@LaCréé.e]

I fell in love with your content for your unique New-York videos. Not gonna lie I completely drifted away when you went full real estate. Hopefully you go back to NYC vids but blessings to you whatever path you choose!

[@erikvanconover]

TONS of NYC content on the way

[@LivingLifeSaba]

Yes, it's so nice to hear him get excited. I don't think I've heard that watching his real estate videos--granted it's a different type of video.

[@AprilAudia]

@@erikvanconover yep starting watching you from that 200 square foot apartment- and kept watching until it got to high end- it lost something- so happy for your success- but I like the vlogs when there not slick- just you living life!

[@MeesterJ]

@@erikvanconover ngl, I had the feeling you were moving to Colorado lately 😂

[@mitchellbarnow1709]

I used to watch your channel all of the time, Erik. I stopped watching when it became all about high end real estate, but your channel has grown to an incredible size because of the choices that you made. I really wasn't interested in another Million Dollar Listing channel. I am really happy that you are going back to your roots with today's video being fantastic and awesome!

You’re totally right about saturation of the property tour genre. Once you’ve seen one $40m NYC apartment/LA mansion you’ve seen them all.

You know something Erik, I watched your channel when you were posting your travel and life blog content and loved it so much, then I came back after a few years to see you doing Real Estate, and was surprised but so happy for you, but I actually knew that you weren't fully you, doing just the real estate videos. I'm sending you much support and love and know you will continue to thrive! Bless you man! ⭐⭐💫

Erik: I’m quitting RE 30 seconds later: I’m getting my license in Colorado California Florida

[@Yaaron_Zongo]

A very quick u-turn. But I think he said he will still do the RE videos and by the way having those licenses means a chance for more bucks

[@DarrenKriz]

Love the idea! Stoked to see more future vlogs!

[@wimbletone]

Any OG Erik Conover fans here from when he was just filming in his small apartment back in 2014??? This channel has evolved so much from those days. Seeing those daily vlogs again would definitely be awesome but only do it if your mental health doesn't dip and if it doesn't affect your personal life. I miss the NYC vlogs, just NYC and the world from the eyes of Erik. :)

[@Ajd83.]

I'm really happy you have found a moment like you have. There's no greater joy in life than to do what you love or indeed to love what you do. I hope this next step brings you fulfilment after a tough personal year. I wish you the very best and look forward like many to viewing the vlogs.

[@gaiasworld2516]

I’ve been following you since the beginning when you lived in that tiny apartment! I just hope you do what your heart really tells you! You’re vlogs have always been my favorite thing to watch on your channel so I’m really looking forward to them!! A fan from Italy! Edit- And reflecting on what you said, I guess it was what you felt right but still, I don't think it was an easy decision to make. This proves that you CAN ALWAYS CHANGE YOUR DIRECTION and that you shouldn't be afraid of doing what feels right even though it's scary.

[@mrh4195]

I'm so glad you are shifting back. I missed the vlogs. And have been here since 2014. They were raw and real. It is what made it genuine.

I’m a true travelling gypsy and I’ve lived in 25 houses, apartments, tiny apartments and estates! Do it all and live life happy

Erik… I have been watching your videos since your daily vlogs and I am so happy that you’re going back to what got it all started. Especially now that your filming and editing has improved sooo much. I did like the authentic feeling you brought back then but so excited to see where this new journey goes. You’ve been an inspiration to me and my channel 🤩

If you've seen twenty huge houses you've understand what it's like to live in one. You need skates... and when 90% of the world is starving its not enough to possess the hugest piece of marble in the kitchen.

[@Syl_Lac0898]

Sooo agree with your comment! Society’s priorities are screwed up 🤨

[@stubones]

So you’re a communist who thinks peoples hard earned money is communal… no.

[@fluffymuffi1]

Not at all. Ive just seen a lot of those houses and how people live in them. They use two rooms and there's often nowhere comfortable to sit. My comment about the big slab of marble wasn't related to shared money.. it's just a poor thing to take so much pride in.

[@falliswell]

Your NYC and travel vlogs are why I subscribed. So glad you’re going back to the original

[@_braune_]

I was getting sick of the property tours. After awhile, you realize it's not that fun to view homes that are so ridiculously large and/or opulent that they're infeasible to live in comfortably.

[@aknightlife]

Yesssssss!!! Two of my favorite things, NYC & vlogs!

[@junjapabilingual1349]

1000% excited for more vlogs. Especially travel vlogs. The property tours were very well done but tbh my favorite one was always the OG property tour of your old studio apartment. Wishing you all the best going forward. Been watching since 2018 and have enjoyed watching your journey unfold.

[@funrupal]

Super excited!! I love your health and wellness along with general NYC vlog videos so this is great!! Good luck!

[@Nick-hw4gd]

I feel like one of the main issues with property tours is that the houses are so ludicrously expensive and so packed with luxury that watching the videos sometimes wears me out even as a viewer. I would honestly prefer something more down to earth, like “normal” real estate tours. For some reason no one tries that on KZbin. People always go for the bazillion dollar mansions.

[@courtneysstafford]

THIS

[@LaCréé.e]

It's because anyone can go and visit normal houses. The appeal of luxury real estate is that it's out of reach for most of us.

[@troycollett8540]

And there are several channels that do essentially the same properties

I remember when I first found your channel before you even had 3000 subscribers. I was in a terrible place mentally, physically, financially, etc., and those little vlogs brightened my day! Even though you were struggling then more than you are now, you always seemed so optimistic, and it (along with a lot of praying) motivated me to get up and give things another try. I am in a much better place now and am excited to see what you have in store. Sorry for the book. Lol. I just wanted to say I'm proud of you and will definitely stay tuned. :)
