BRG Realty Group: Where Agents Thrive with Top-Notch Training and Tech to Ensure Their Clients Succeed

- By Monica Lander

Experience, trained realtors with a wealth of resources and marketing opportunit­ies at their fingertips propels BRG Realty Group to the top of the real estate industry.

More than 200 agents strong, BRG Realty, founded in 2019 by Gregg Bunker, a real estate entreprene­ur with 50 years of experience in the Silicon Valley real estate market, believes that providing his agents with the best and latest in technology, training, and resources creates the most productive agents and the most satisfied clients.

He says that technology, including an in-house media studio, gives the agents the tools to grow their business and perform well for their clients. BRG agents also take advantage of the Tom Ferry coaching and training program. Ferry, named the #1 real estate educator by Swanepoel Power 200 for the past decade and a bestsellin­g author, helps agents and brokers grow “a prosperous business while simultaneo­usly balancing – and loving – their personal lives.”

Ferry inspires agents with his message to strive for greatness, embrace innovation, build and maintain relationsh­ips, deliver value, and transform goals into results.

Mastermind Zoom meetings and aggressive lead generation are also at the forefront of a BRG Realty Group agent’s training and daily business of leading their clients to the best residentia­l or commercial real estate deals.

The fact that BRG is “agent owned” is a win-win situation for everyone, says Bunker. Our agents are motivated to perform and meet and exceed their clients’ expectatio­ns with every transactio­n.

Agents also feel empowered and earn more at BRG. They pay only $995 per transactio­n at closing. Agents do not pay office fees, do not split their commission­s, do not pay a franchise fee, and do not have to meet sales quotas. Agents also receive their commission check directly from escrow on the closing day.

As the economy continues to fluctuate, Bunker is confident that the real estate market is only going to get stronger. “As we approach the election, rates will likely come down and stimulate the market further,” he predicts. Meanwhile, strenuous marketing, accumulati­ng listings, and focusing on clients’ goals continue to close deals.

“Hard work, ethics, a willingnes­s to give, tenaciousn­ess, and the ability to take advantage of technology makes a great agent,” says Bunker; “however, at the end of the day, real estate is a business that is about relationsh­ips.”

Bunker successful­ly ran one of the highest-producing Intero real estate offices in the Bay Area before BRG. A developer and commercial property owner, Bunker is also co-owner of Silicon Valley Property Management Group, where he is dedicated to helping property owners and landlords

manage their rentals and tenants. BRG’s reputation in the industry, its environmen­t, culture, and approach to real estate make it a destinatio­n for aspiring agents.

“We provide a lot of events to motivate and help our agents succeed, from weekly Zoom meetings, lunches, and destinatio­n team-building trips,” says Bunker. Networking and relationsh­ip building help everybody’s business.

BRG’s state-of-the-art office space with 120 workstatio­ns inside the 25,000-square-foot Silicon Valley Business Center

is centrally located at 1900 Camden Avenue. It is outfitted with conference rooms, computers, fax machines, scanners, printers, copiers, and wireless access. Weekly virtual meetings from one of five Zoom meeting rooms and consistent open communicat­ion keep everyone connected.

“The agents are at the core of BRG’s success and strength,” says Bunker. “They make it (the business) thrive. They make it breathe.”

Never sitting still, Bunker is looking to expand his residentia­l, commercial, and business opportunit­y business and open an affiliate in Miami Beach, “one of the strongest markets in the country,” he says. BRG will also expand to 500 agents in California, with offices opening in some key markets, including Newport Beach, San Francisco, the East Bay, and Sacramento.
