Launching a Luxury Division with Tony Martinez

If you could throw a rock in South Florida, it would land on a real estate agent, and if it could bounce off, it would hit another real estate agent. There are many people in the real estate industry, and for you to survive, you need to stand out. But the million-dollar question is, how do you stand out and get noticed? Today, I'm privileged to have a fantastic Realtor, Tony Martinez. He runs a very successful brokerage in South Florida.  They recently launched their luxury division, and Tony's agents had to take our LUXE Designation training if they wanted to be listed as luxury agents on their website. We spent a lot of time discussing why Tony felt a dedicated luxury division was important for his agents... and how he feels now since launching his luxury division 4 months ago.   Tony also wears multiple hats besides running a brokerage. He also owns the CDPE- Certified Distressed Property Expert designation.  We're coming into a season where the markets are slowing down a bit. Tony will give us some wisdom nuggets that will empower agents to deal with short sales and foreclosures. Also, he'll give us some tips on how agents can differentiate themselves.  Listen in and learn.  “The mindset is fed by the people you surround yourself with.” - Tony Martinez Three Things You’ll Learn from this Episode • The real estate industry is crowded.
