NEW YORK, Dec. 10, 2018 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Real, the fast-growing, technology-connected real estate brokerage, is expanding to Mississippi with the addition of Wes Mason as state broker, starting immediately the company announced.
"Real gives agents freedom and the ability to keep more of what they earn," Mason said. "It makes sense. It's a win-win for everybody. That's why I joined and why I'm excited to lead Real's expansion into Mississippi."
Mason came to Real from the local Keller Williams franchise. His varied experiences helped hone the management, technological and real estate skills he will employ as a broker at Real. He spent 17 years in the housing industry as a Realtor, investor and owner of a business that designs, builds and installs luxury custom kitchens across the south. He served in the US Army during the first Gulf War and worked as a computer programmer and as a Cisco, Microsoft and Novell engineer. Mason is a 1987 graduate from The University of South Carolina.
Mason's motto is that "nothing is impossible until you prove to yourself that it can't be done." The motto is something that he would like to pass along to Mississippi agents at Real, Mason said.
"From the moment we met Wes, he epitomized the character traits that we want from our state brokers," said Real CEO Tamir Poleg. "He is service-minded, support-focused and entrepreneurial. Most importantly, he is fully aligned with Real's mission to deliver the very best brokerage platform for producing agents and teams."
Real's model, with a tech-connected platform, limited brick-and-mortar presence, high-quality support and generous splits and caps, provides a unique value that should prove appealing to Mississippi Realtors, Mason said.
"Our plan is to gain a strong agent base in the central Mississippi market and then continue expansion throughout the state. We can show agents how to keep up to 39 percent more of their earnings and access technology to service their clients better," he said.
In addition, Real's online transaction management system makes broker support and oversight more efficient, which is key in Mississippi's strict "dot your i's and cross your t's" compliance environment, Mason said.
