'Real Housewives' Realtor Gets a Career Boost

Real Housewives of D.C.'s Stacie Turner says she didn't even want to do the popular Bravo show when first asked. But once she accepted, it turned out to be the perfect platform for the Realtor, entrepreneur and nonprofit director. Turner says she repeatedly turned down offers from the show's producers, but then reluctantly agreed.

"They were very persistent, and I reconsidered once I met them in person," Turner told AOL Real Estate, "and realized it was the perfect marketing platform for both my real estate career as well as my nonprofit."
