Join a brokerage, learn, thrive and then build your own team. That’s the well-trodden path of just about every real estate agent. A story you never hear is an agent joining the number 1 team in their market, only for it to completely fall apart and disband.

Having such a rocky experience has shaped how today’s guest leads his own team and sets them up for success.

It taught him that who we choose to work with matters. Even though brokerages hire agents, agents also have to “hire” their brokerage because they determine your path. How does our guest lead his team and set them up for success? What's the gap in real estate that allows Zillow to be so successful? Can we use it to our advantage?

In this episode, agent and team leader, Mike Smallegan talks about his unique real estate story, how it impacted how he leads, and how he views things most agents treat as threats.

If what we’re doing is worth what we’re asking, people are going to continue to pay it. -Mike Smallegan
