Young currently works as a luxury real estate agent for the Oppenheim Group, made famous by Netflix's reality series Selling Sunset.

'My response to that is I have had my real estate license since 2014. I've been with The Oppenheim Group since 2015. I sold my first house within three months of having my license, it was a $7.2 million house. A week later, I sold a $1.5 million condo and you can look up the proof.
