Keller Williams Top Producer Brad Evans ops for Metro Brokers Big Brand Model
New Offfice Owner Brad Evans operates Denver Core
Metro BrokersTV: Hi. I
am Amy Chase with Metro Brokers and I am here today with Brad Evans, managing
broker and owner of Metro Brokers Denver CORE. Brad,
welcome.
Brad Evans: Hi, how are you today?
Metro BrokersTV: Good.
Thanks. Thanks for joining
me. So, tell me a little bit about your
real estate background.
Brad Evans: Real estate background, this is my sixth year
in business. We just started this Metro
Brokers in January this year. So, before
that I had been at Keller Williams, I had been a top performing agent there for
five years and just really started[Phonetic] the need to have my own office.
Metro BrokersTV: Terrific.
So, you were at Keller Williams first.
Tell me a little bit about your experience at Keller and how it varies
at Metro Brokers.
Brad Evans: I think Keller Williams was a great launch
pad for my practice as a Realtor®. It
really kind of gave me the tools to start and now as a more mature agent, I
think it started becoming a hindrance more than it was a help.
Metro BrokersTV: Great.
So, you have been with Metro how long now?
Brad Evans: January 1st this year, 2009.
Metro BrokersTV: Terrific and tell me a little bit about your
business model and how Metro Brokers facilitates you working your own model?
Brad Evans: Our own model is... we are downtown
Denver Real Estate agencies. So, we kind of focus mostly on
downtown Denver and the kind of core Denver real estate
and the Denver neighborhoods around it. So, our
desire was to be that kind of more urban hit agency that we couldn't get Keller
Williams to do.
Metro BrokersTV: The brand, name, recognition was also important
to you changing... or coming from someone like Keller Williams where you have got
that brand recognition continuing on with Metro Brokers was also important.
Brad Evans: Yeah, I think you know Keller and then now
with Metro, there is a bigger network that we could be part of and I think that
just kind of... that was something that was attractive to us. We didn't want to just be Joe's Real Estate
Company. We really wanted to be part of
a bigger whole and then we saw that as an opportunity to network with all the
other Metro Brokers even in the state where we were getting referrals from Longmont and Colorado Springs
and Grand Junction. So, it's a great tool to use as a network
tool and that's probably a big part of our business.
Metro BrokersTV: Great and obviously you are a top producer,
you are a very successful agent. Tell me
a little bit about some of your awards and what do you attribute your success
to?
Brad Evans: You know the awards, those are cool things,
but I think it's the happy clients that we work with. I think... and that's the reward to me more
than it is like you know being Rookie of the Year or top G.C.I.(Gross Commission Income), the Keller Williams game[Phonetic],
that's the rewards that we have is the happy clients.
Metro BrokersTV: Absolutely.
Great answer. Is there anything
that you would like to share with our viewers about Metro Brokers before we
part ways?
Brad Evans: Oh, if you are thinking of coming in Metro
Brokers, call me. I mean we are happy to
talk to you about why we are here. I
think that was the openness that we felt at Metro Brokers that no other office
kind of ownership tools that were out there really offered.
Metro BrokersTV: Definitely.
Brad, thanks so much for your time and welcome to Metro Brokers.
Brad Evans: Great.
Thanks. Appreciate it. Have a great day.
Metro BrokersTV: Thank you.
