I'm Michael Jones and this is my Coldwell Banker® success story.

When I purchased my first home, real estate went from an investment to a passion of mine. I found myself excited about every aspect of the field, so it only seemed natural as a career. It embodied everything that allows me to thrive – from interacting with people on a daily basis, to problem solving technical and general business elements.

Real Estate As A Profession

I was a successful agent in insurance sales for a national company before discovering real estate as a profession. When I found myself having to balance the two careers, I chose real estate because it offered me more of what I wanted in life – a flexible schedule, unlimited earning potential and the personal gratification I receive when helping others realize their dreams.

Best of all, it doesnʼt feel like a job when you love what you do, and success can happen naturally if you have:

  • The ability to multi-task
  • A discipline & commitment to those you represent
  • The ability to adapt to a situation

Having these traits and knowing how to combine them in a field that interests me is how Iʼve become successful.


My Coldwell Banker Experience

When it was time for me to take my real estate career to the next level I looked for a national brand, with a global presence and an established network – Coldwell Banker was my choice. The technology is cutting edge – if thereʼs something that can help grow my business, Coldwell Banker has it. For example, our leads management system connects me to interested buyers and sellers instantly. Also, Iʼm more than a real estate agent at my Coldwell Banker office. Here, I am a consultant who guides clients during every step of their real estate experience. Iʼm also an instructor to my colleagues – I run training sessions for those looking to hone their skills. Weʼre all family here, thatʼs what I love most about Coldwell Banker.


A United Nations of Real Estate

My network gives me an international presence, after all Coldwell Banker is a company with global connections. If you know anyone looking to buy or sell a home anywhere in the world, I can likely help. One of my most memorable closings was the sale of the mayorʼs home in Columbus to international diplomats. The whole experience made me feel like the Secretary-General, brokering a deal between two nations. So when the Coldwell Banker Office in Turks & Caicos follows me on Twitter, I instantly expand my network – and have a new destination to scuba dive!

That’s my formula for success. Join a Coldwell Banker office today and discover your own.
