55: Wayne Turner: Go From ZERO to 300 Units Annually in Just 4 Years!

Wayne Turner is a do it, ditch it, or delegate it kind of guy with an incredible story. While working a job cleaning pools, Wayne was inspired to start his Real Estate career based off of the car that this client drove. Starting at 24 years old, back in 1996, he rose quickly in the ranks. At the peak of his business, he and his team were closing over 300 units annually but then his world came caving in. After beginning to butt heads with his ex-wife, business took a turn for the worse, eventually leaving him to file for bankruptcy. After selling his commercial building to Taylor Swift, Wayne took a hiatus, found the love of his life, reignited his motivation, moved to Louisiana, and with a phone, a desk, and a computer went from ZERO to 300 units in just four years! Learn exactly how he did it and so much more.

What does it take to be a Real Estate Rockstar? Join us as Wayne shares his realtor mindset and a glance at his journey to becoming a Real Estate Rockstar, not once, but twice.

Real Estate AH-HA Moment

  • Being the office computer nerd came with its benefits and downfalls. While removing a virus from a fellow agents computer, Josh was given the advice to pack his bags and run. The man told him that without a sphere of influence, and a wad of cash in his pockets, Josh was wasting his time and effort. Taking this to heart, with tears in his eyes, Josh set off for the car and planned to pack it up until that AH-HA moment. “Who is that guy to tell me if I will be successful or not” Josh said to himself over and over again until he built up the confidence to march into the office, and cold call until success.

Current Business

  • At age 25 Josh is killing it! He has decided to commit to “under promising and over delivering” and because of this, last year was forced to turn down 100 listings so that he could maintain his 85% conversion rate on the listings he did take.
