They often say working together can make or break a friendship. Starting out as friends in the same army camp, Jody, Jay and Brandon from Jody Tan District (JTD) consider themselves the lucky few who saw their journey into real estate bring them closer and solidify their friendship into a brotherly bond.<\/span><\/p>\n

Today, the three are known in Huttons and the industry as the only millionaire trio under 30, with them hitting their one million commission mark across 2021 and 2022. Jay and Brandon are also both successful district directors and lead a team of agents themselves<\/span><\/p>\n

Starting from Zero<\/b><\/p>\n

Contrary to popular belief that successful real estate agents often start off with connections that could get them far, Jody came from an average family and had no referrals coming into the real estate space. In fact, he took his RES exam while in the army and entered the industry with just $2000 to his name.<\/span><\/p>\n

Today, Jody stands as Huttons\u2019 youngest millionaire realtor and the chairman of Huttons\u2019 Millennial Team. Against the backdrop of his personal success, Jody was also able to grow his team to more than 100 in the last two years, making him one of the key leaders people look up to in the industry.<\/span><\/p>\n

Similar to Jody, Jay and Brandon too came from humble backgrounds. With Jay previously working in a 9-5 job and Brandon in F&B, the success Jody was experiencing in his real estate career, alongside the flexibility of the job, attracted them to join the industry.<\/span><\/p>\n

Together, the trio worked their way up through hard work, tenacity and a never-say-die attitude.<\/span><\/p>\n

Figuring their way to the top<\/b><\/p>\n

It was not an easy journey up for Jody, Jay and Brandon. With no connections and a low marketing budget, they had to be creative in the way they prospected for leads. Rather than outsource their lead generation efforts like most agents, the three decided the best way to grow was to drive their own leads.<\/span><\/p>\n

They took it upon themselves to attend courses, read up on digital marketing tools and sought help from others in the industry to better themselves in order to drive their agent business.<\/span><\/p>\n

Together, Brandon and Jody achieved consecutive millionaire status in 2021 & 2022 with Jay attaining it in 2022.<\/p>\n

Jody also became the youngest Millionaire in Huttons’ history.<\/p>\n

\"Brandon,<\/p>\n

Balancing work and family in the first year<\/b><\/p>\n

Brandon\u2019s journey to being a millionaire achiever is impressive. But what\u2019s more impressive is him balancing this achievement alongside his personal milestone of starting a family.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Brandon<\/p>\n

Balancing the responsibilities of a new parent and a new career in real estate is no easy feat. His hard work and dedication paid off as he quickly established himself as a top performer in his field, closing multiple successful deals and earning recognition from his peers.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

His strong work ethic and determination to succeed in both his personal and professional life made him a role model for others and cemented his status as a rising star in the real estate industry.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Determined to achieve the same success<\/strong><\/p>\n

Jay set his mind and dedicated his time to optimising his marketing campaigns. He fielded for leads through digital marketing by specialising in running effective campaigns on Google ads that brought him successful closings despite a slower market. His use of detailed market analysis, conversational tools, and his dedicated to building a long term relationship with his clients, led him to achieving his breakthrough in 2022.<\/p>\n

Having started from nothing to reach the success they had today, Jody, Brandon and Jay reflected and decided their playbook which gave them success could impact the lives of other agents if they could share and have agents replicate it among themselves.<\/span><\/p>\n

This epiphany was what marked the birth of their Zero to Hero training programme.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Zero to Hero; Sharing their secrets to success<\/b><\/p>\n

The Zero to Hero training is an industry-first training programme that teaches agents how to earn their first $200,000 with $0 marketing spends. To many in the industry, this audacious claim is unheard of, with many questioning the feasibility of such a programme.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

However, the doubts of others have never once caused the leaders of JTD to back down. Jody, Brandon and Jay were convinced it was no stroke of fate that the three of them were able to achieve millionaire status following the same set of rules.<\/span><\/p>\n
