Happy 100th episode to us! 🙂

Luis Ortiz is not only a top 1% producer at RE/MAX (as well as a RE/MAX Hall of Fame member); many of his team members are also top 1% producers. While nearly all of his team’s business comes from referrals, Luis built his business educating renters on the advantages of home ownership. In this episode he goes through step-by-step how he started in real estate and why love, service and care are his “why.” Luis believes that once you have your “why” the “how” follows.

D.J. Paris 0:14Hello, and welcome to another episode of Keeping it real. The only podcast made by Chicago real estate brokers where the top 1% of Realtors share the secrets of their success. My name is DJ Parris. I am your host, and this is our 100th episode. We are so excited and grateful that you have listened to the podcast, some of you since the very beginning. Others of you are new to the show what we do here if you happen to be new, if you didn’t catch it from the tagline I just said, we talked to the top 1% of Realtors here in Chicago and ask them how they built their business. And generously they share all of their secrets. Because as I’ve learned over 100 episodes, there are no secrets. And the people at the very top tend to be very generous with giving away everything they do, because they believe in the law of abundance, and that as enough business for everyone. So today on the show, we have Luis Ortiz, and from Remax so we’re gonna get to him in just a moment. But I just want to reflect a little bit on the last 100 episodes and say a couple of things to the audience. First of all, thank you for listening, really appreciate it.
