As soon as I started a podcast I knew I had to have the ‘Godfather of Real Estate’ on, Fred DeFalco. I am so excited to bring you this conversation with Fred - billion dollar agent, 40+ years of real estate experience, founder of Public Pricing, true real estate extraordinaire. It is an honor to bring you this conversation with one of the most brilliant men in this industry and I am so grateful to call him my mentor.

I asked Fred to bring us back to how he got started in real estate and what pieces of advice he would give to a brand new agent. We talk about his year 1 to his year 40 and as much as we can in between.

Fred walks us through exactly where he started in his real estate career that led him to where he is today. With no formal education and being labeled as a ‘high school dropout’, you may be surprised by what his top pieces of advice are. Fred gives us his 3 keys that helped him make it big in the real estate industry and gives us an inside look at the steps he took to get there.

I also wanted to know why someone with such extensive management and brokerage experience would move to a new brokerage - EXP Realty - before it was even proven in his own market, he spills the beans on that huge move as well.

At over 60 years old Fred still continues his real estate education which is a true testament as to why he’s made it this far. Fred has mentored some of the top agents in the industry and is still a student of real estate daily.

I can’t wait for you to hear from someone who’s done so much with his real estate license, Fred is a true inspiration and gives us an honest inside look into how he got to where he is today.
