PODCAST TRANSCRIPTION

KEVIN: Welcome to the show Sean.

SEAN: Thanks Kevin it's great to be here.

KEVIN: While I'm looking forward to our conversation I've certainly have always watched you and your career in San Diego area and was excited to see you make the decision to come over DXP realty but before somebody who's listening maybe doesn't know your background hasn't heard of you before. Why don't you take a few minutes and give your real estate history. In other words your background in some of the work you've done right.

SEAN: Ok. For the people who have a hard time sleeping at night. I started in real estate out of college back in 1987 and I've been in pretty much every aspect other than Title. I've done the loans I've done home building, primarily I've done real estate residential. I'd say about five or six years ago I started coaching agents more than I was doing real estate itself. And about three and a half years ago joined Keller Williams and became what's called a productivity coach there and really starting up with the job of coaching agents that became my career. Until we left Keller Williams my wife and I was a team leader and started our own brokerage.

And along comes the EXP was a fantastic surprise.

KEVIN: Well it's excellent so you're a productivity coach. I was a team leader at Keller Williams Your wife was a team leader. You know one of the things the whole industry has always touted right? Everybody said it but I want to get your perspective on it now that you've been an independent broker which you and your wife launched in 2017 but when you look at an agent centric business this truly agent centric an agent owned this is different than what the franchises call an agent centric business isn't it.

SEAN: Absolutely. The matter of fact I think what EXP is doing is the second major disruption in the industry. This is just my theory but the agent centered model that really Gary Keller brought to the forefront. That disrupted the broker centric model to a large degree and changed Real Estate and I see EXP coming along and saying it's not just agents centric it's owners the agents should own the company. That's a massive disruption.

KEVIN: Well I would agree with you. You know for those of us... and I was with Keller Williams for a long time and had a career the
