The Truth About Owning a Real Estate Brokerage: Why I Left the Traditional Model

Are you a broker/owner feeling the pressure of endless overhead, recruiting struggles, and market unpredictability? You’re not alone — I’ve been there. I built my brokerage to over 50 agents and $200M in volume, only to discover the traditional model was built on a fragile foundation.

In this honest and powerful episode, I share:
✅ The real cost of ownership that no one talks about
✅ Why “success” felt like a beautiful prison
✅ How I found freedom, leverage, and income diversity with the eXp model
✅ How YOU can keep your brand, leadership, and culture while removing the stress

Whether you're at your breaking point or just exploring better options, this is a must-watch for any real estate leader who wants freedom without giving up influence.
