Brad Pearson became a Realtor at 21 after
serving 4 years in the US Air Force as an Air Traffic Controller during the
Gulf War. His claim to fame as an agent was his success in taking
21 listings his first 45 days in the real estate business, all by knocking
expired and FSBO doors. For the next 7 years he became one of the top
agents in his office an community and was well known for his extreme
competitiveness. In 1999 he was approached to manage an office with
12 agents in it, where it ranked #32 in the city where there were only about 15
actual companies. This put his office worse than last place considering
there were companies outside of his market area doing more business.
The first year managing he hired 50 experienced productive agents and within 18
months he had 100 agents in less than 4000 square feet in one of the dingiest,
dirtiest, run down facilities imaginable with only 16 dedicated parking spaces.
Shortly thereafter his company signed a lease on a new 17,000
square foot facility that took 6 months to open. On the day of opening
(about 2 ½ years total) he moved into that office with 140 agents and rapidly
grew the office to the 180 agents it was when he left 3 ½ years later.
At this point the office was the number 1 office in its market (up
32 spots!), and had displaced companies that used to laugh at him and his old
office and had been number 1 for 20+ years. They never saw
him coming!
Brad was then offered a new adventure in another market area with an office
that was on it’s way into the red and had 70 agents in April and by the end of
the year the office exceeded profit expectations and grew by 30+ experienced
agents, the following year the office grew by 44 experienced agents and
achieved the single highest profit in its 34 year history. Upon his
departure in 2008 the office had approximately 140 agents and was and still is
number 1 by nearly double the next largest competitor.
Brad was promoted to the position of Vice President of Sales for the entire
company overseeing 9 branches with approximately 900 agents and growing.
Brad has also been:
-Featured in “The Real Estate Insider” magazine on recruiting.
-Featured in "Realty Times Magazine" on Social Networking.
