I've listened a lot of interviews with top agents and successful professionals and the most interesting part for me: how they started and what was the WOW moment for each.

How do you feel about crowd funding to purchase real estate projects? Do you participate or create limited partnerships for private purchases?  If you look back at your career in real estate, what would you tell someone just starting out on how to be successful in the business?

Hmmm...this is very thought provoking. I think one question I would ask is...what one thing do you believe propeled you to the top?
