Open Job Offer

Posted on May 30, 2008

Please consider this an open-ended offer:

We’re looking for the most intelligent, highest skilled real estate practitioners that we can find. We’re looking for exceptional ability and impeccable character because we believe that it takes extremely smart people to make money in real estate in this market.

We don’t care about a hundred years of experience or 30 meaningless FAR designations. We want raw intelligence, unbridled motivation, and extreme personal discipline. We want the best, and here’s why: We want to work with them.

Our founders came out of a high-performance management consulting environment, envisioning that we could find real estate Agents who were like us – exceptional at what we do and driven to succeed. Our rude awakening was that there was no such Brokerage in Tampa Bay. So we created our own. Its name is Home Encounter.

We make no apologies for our ambition: we intend to be known as the best Real Estate Consultancy with the brightest Real Estate Agents in Tampa Bay. Our recruitment strategy is simple: find the most intelligent and highest skilled real estate practitioners in Tampa Bay and introduce them to our Firm. Once they experience our level of Real Estate Consulting, they’ll never go back.

We don’t know you, so we have no idea if you’re the exceptional talent that we’re looking for. But we firmly believe that “like attracts like” and that if what we’ve said above describes you, you’ll contact us right away to schedule a meeting.

We’re offering you the chance to be a part of a high-performance real estate culture, the likes of which you’ve never seen. No more mediocre teams; no more passionless colleagues; no more jaded mentors.  Just intelligence, skill and motivation. If this type of Brokerage appeals to you, you can reach us at 813.425.2566. Ask to speak to any of our Partners.
