Ep 78: Building a Successful Husband-Wife Real Estate Business with the Dearing Team

Today’s show will be a little bit different than most of our previous ones but we think you’ll get a lot out of this. Josh and Charlene Dearing are a local husband and wife team in the Charlotte area of North Carolina, and they bring years of experience in real estate.

We wanted to pick their brain on starting a business together and building a team as partners. We have plenty of our small business owners and advisors in a similar position so we think there’s a lot to glean from this conversation. Hopefully, you can pick up on strategies, processes, and how to find success in this setup.  

Plus, the real estate market has been roaring these past few years so we want to find out what trends they’re currently seeing and how real estate is being used more and more in retirement planning.

Here is some of what you’ll learn on this episode:

• How they capitalized on a relationship with a well-known broker to implement a new strategy and help manage their talent. (4:06)
• What strategies do they use for marketing and branding? (12:18)
• How are retirees and pre-retirees using real estate as part of their retirement plan and how have trends changed? (18:03)
• The husband-wife dynamic and how they balance that in day-to-day operations. (21:53)
• Advice they’d give people who are thinking about starting their own business or just getting started. (25:21)
