Before starting a career in real estate in 2017, Cory worked as a professional pedicab driver in San Francisco as well as in the beer and wine industry. Having been told by 3 people in one week he should get his real estate license, he made the jump and never looked back. With no formal background in finance or real estate his greatest fear was that no one would take him seriously as a real estate agent and that he would have to change who he was as a person in order to succeed. Fast forward to today and he’s built a business based on authenticity, education, and building deep connections with his clients.
Cory joined KW and founded his company, Homegrown Real Estate, in 2018. To date, he’s grossed over $50 million in sales and has truly come to embrace the culture and educational opportunities that abound within Keller Williams. He has been a proud member of the Agent Leadership Council in his Market Center, a BOLD graduate, and most recently became a certified Quantum Leap instructor. Cory has always felt like an educator at heart and is working to become a certified KWU trainer and eventually International Master Faculty.
Cory believes that one of the greatest gifts of a real estate career is the ability to take it with you everywhere you go. An avid traveler, Cory has created real estate opportunities in Portugal and Indonesia and has plan to continue building relationships and referrals partners with KW agents abroad. Cory is a father to two children (with a third on the way!) and husband to Alison whom he met at Oktoberfest while on a bike trip from Scotland to Turkey. Cory is an avid reader and podcast junky. When he’s not working on his real estate business, Cory plays in a competitive pool league and recently discovered a love for improv comedy.
**Cory will be offering the following classes through CES for 2024; Quantum Leap, Win-Win Negotiations, Time Management with the 4-1-1 and Win with Buyers.
