292. Richard Boga: How to Align & Achieve at the Highest Levels in Luxury

Top Real Estate Agents Tell How They Do It: Jere Metcalf Podcast

Today I’m talking to Richard Boga, of the O’Dare Boga Team in Vero Beach Florida with ONE Sotheby’s International Realty.
Richard is selling $200 million to $300 million dollars in real estate annually. If there’s a sales record on the east coast of Florida from beach front, waterfront or land, Cindy and Richard have broken it. As much as Richard’s success is an outlier, so is his start in real estate.
Richard started in business listing and selling premier properties right away. Even with all of the connections and success, he knew he needed more to get to the next level. He took the job as assistant to Cindy O’Dare to get the knowledge and experience he was looking for. Unplanned and serendipitously, Richard worked his way to a partnership with Cindy. Richard, shares his story, the successes, the struggles and how he both breaks records in real estate and how he earned and created a powerful partnership.
