Rob began in real estate in 1995, with early success that earned several awards such as: Rookie of the Year, Rising star and #1 Sales units closed and member of the Million Dollar Club. He realized due to the rapid growth he needed to form a team that would help him serve his client’s needs

The team started with a full time office manager and three real estate agents and now has full staff and over 230+ agents in 8 different real estate markets.

The very first agent to join is still active on the team We have some very high-producing agents who have continued to stay on the team for 11+ years because of the team culture and the support the staff and Rob offers.

Another reason agents stay is due to how Rob has set up the team Agents have the benefits of his extensive branding and marketing budget but our Marketing Department can also help you establish your own 'brand' identity within the team.

In addition to your RET Manager you would alsohave a direct point of contact to the Director of Expansion who will be working to understand your marketing and making sure you have what you need.

Our team is one of the fastest growing real estate teams because our team leader, Rob Ellerman, never stops looking for new and innovative ways to serve our clients, builders and his own team of real estate agents.
