Clint C. Galliano, REALTOR® 985.647.4479
Clint C. Galliano, a native of Lafourche Parish, has lived in the Houma-Thibodaux area for over 34 years and is currently a REALTOR® with Keller Williams Realty Bayou Partners in Houma, La. He has been involved with real estate investing since 2017 and hosts the local Real Estate Investment Association. Real Estate is his passion. Clint previously worked in drilling fluids and drilling fluids automation for 28 years. He lives in Bayou Blue with his wife and two daughters.
As I have alluded to in the last few articles I have written, I have started my new career as a real estate salesperson licensed in the state of Louisiana.
My wife and I made the decision that since I loved real estate so much, why not jump in full time? So, I attended an online real estate school during the pandemic lockdown, then passed the test slightly less than a month after starting.
This new career is also a little out of my comfort zone because I am reaching out to people proactively to talk. Not something I have done on a regular basis outside of a close circle of friends. Time to grow. Time to expand my capabilities.
I am, little by little, becoming a more public person. I have doubled my Facebook friends list and continue to add people. I am making videos and live streams, (though not very good ones – LOL), for open houses and putting them out there.
I am enjoying this!
Why Keller Williams?
A few people have asked me why I chose the local Keller Williams team. I have a few reasons. The main one is that I am a fan of Gary Keller. I started reading his books when I began to educate myself on real estate investing. I like his approach to things. A lot of it dovetails with my own philosophy. I also like the way the company has and is adapt(ed/ing) to the changing world with the use of technology. KW also has some of the best training out there.
Then there is the family aspect of things. Family is one of the guiding principles of the company. Everyone here is very supportive and will do just about anything to help you.
And, on top of that, the company has a profit-sharing structure that is designed to ensure the long-term life of the company in addition to providing you and your beneficiaries with profit-sharing income.
So if you are interested in joining the Keller Williams family, get in contact with me here.

As I have stated in previous articles, since leaving the oilfield I intended to move more into real estate. Part of working towards that goal is to become a real estate agent.
I began attending an online Louisiana Real Estate Salesperson course and successfully completed it over the course of a month while taking a week vacation during the same time period.
I have now completed the next step required to become an agent by passing the state and national portions of the exam.
I will begin onboarding next week with a local office of a national franchise.
That’s all for now. I just wanted to let everyone know about my progress.
We are still doing fine and have been able to go back to the gym, so that is a nice expansion on our workout routine from the lockdown.
I have completed my 90 Hour Real Estate Salesperson training course and will be taking the national and state exams this week. #WishMeLuck
Today I wanted to talk about outsourcing. As a real estate investor focused on expanding, you continuously search for properties. There are numerous ways to accomplish that on your own, whether it is “Driving for Dollars”, (drive around looking for vacant properties), searching the MLS, tax sales, or any of the other numerous ways to find properties.
There is an issue with all of these methodologies in that if you are doing them, what aren’t you doing to work on your business?
So, why not outsource your search for properties?
Put in a little effort to document your criteria in a Property Search One Sheet and share it with anyone and everyone. This allows other people to identify properties that meet your criteria and bring them to you, thereby increasing the input into your funnel.
The people you share it with can be family, friends, acquaintances, and even property wholesalers.
