Chelsea Lazkani has opened up about the person that influenced her to get into real estate.
The reality star posted a social media video describing to her followers that her father's experience as an architect made it easy for her to follow a similar path. The insight comes amid her ongoing public drama —and feud — with her "Selling Sunset" co-star Heather Rae El Moussa, heightened after the release of the show's sixth season.
Chelsea Lazkani Credits Her Dad For Giving Her A Foundation In Real Estate
Since Lazkani returned to the screens of "Selling Sunset" after becoming a cast member in season five, she has been more than candid about details of her personal life. In the latest update, she gave her 436k followers a chance to ask her questions about whatever piqued their interest via her Instastories.
It did not take long before queries began dropping in her DMs, including this one that read, "wut made you get into real estate? bc, the runway got your name, babes, 🔥." To answer, Lazkani uploaded a clip that showcased her in a car, donning a white outfit and a stunning amount of makeup, explaining:
"I grew up in real estate; my dad was a property evaluator and architect. So, I was always fascinated by amazing architecture. My dad…what we now call…flips houses."
After restating that she has a real estate background, the University of Dundee alum revealed that her decision to obtain a real estate license was cemented during her and her husband, Jeff, search for their first house. Upon seeing the commission, she figured she could get a piece of the pie.
"That's fundamentally the real reason I got my real estate license. However, I always knew I'd probably get into real estate one way or another. I would, in the future, like to get into investing. But, yeah," she wrapped up.
The last time the mom-of-two was this honest was a few days ago when she spilled the tea on how she feels about her co-stars during another Q&A session with fans. "Are you cool with all the girls on the show presently?" one fan asked, and she responded through a video:
"I'm cool with most of the girls, and I'd say with some of them. I'm just more amicable, I guess."
Even though she did not point fingers in a specific direction, her ongoing feud with Heather might have provided "Selling Sunset" viewers with an idea.

Per The Blast, she and her fellow O Girl became estranged after the latter leaked bits of a private conversation to Bre Tiesi. It all began after she told Heather that her night out with Tiesi and Chrishell Stause was ruined after Tiesi saw news of her baby daddy Nick Cannon welcoming another child with model LaNisha Cole, just weeks after she welcomed her first baby.
The situation disgusted Lazkani, who said she found Tiesi and Cannon's relationship "rather off-putting." Heather spilled the information to Tiesi as a good friend, causing Lazkani to get mad.
Things went a step further when Heather was accused of "stirring the pot" after she posted multiple images from her days as a pregnant woman. She used the caption to ask viewers to share their opinion on the recently released sixth season, prompting one netizen to inform her that even though her intentions were pure, "going to someone and saying 'well so and so said this,' even if it is facts and 100% true, is not helpful and does stir drama."
The person then pointed out a better way for the 35-year-old blonde to look out for her friends next time, writing, "Just tell the person talking that it isn't their place to share that information."
Within minutes, Heather had replied, disagreeing that she fueled the drama between Lazkani and Tiesi, declaring that she was only trying to "check on her and see how she is" since Bre is a "very close friend."
While this was transpiring, Chelsea stepped into the comment section to clarify that her co-star "conveniently spent multiple scenes" asking about Tiesi, "only to get a response from [sic] me, then run back and gossip."
She alleged that Heather "knew exactly" what she was doing and later reminded her of the times she talked about Tiesi at her "intimate birthday dinner" that was not filmed. The British-Nigerian's final nail in the coffin came through her Instastories, where she dropped a screenshot of the dialogue alongside the text, "Play elsewhere."
