Today I wanted to share three things with you.

A quick story timeline of my career as a real estate agent.

And, the ten books that helped me build a lovable business that SERVES my lovable life. (It is my belief that your business MUST serve you - not the other way around).

I will also give you all ten books without any obligation. Register your name and email address above to skip all the other baloney and grab all the books for free right now.

Three, I want to convince you to listen to my podcast Real Estate Good Life. On the podcast I share with you the exact blueprint for living the Good Life as a real estate agent. (unlike any other podcast you’ve ever heard).

Here’s the timeline:

1998: Got my real estate license (because as a college dropout I didn’t really know what else to do… real estate sales looked like an opportunity to control the financial outcome and provide me with a path to my number one pursuit in life: Freedom.

Married Sparkle Barbie (aka Lady Spendsalot) on August 22nd.

1999: A family member makes the comment, “Some of us have real jobs.” to me at Thanksgiving. Ouch.

Kid1 (Madison) was born on August 5th 1999.

2000: On January 7th I tell my broker I’m leaving his company to join the #1 Century 21 office in town. He says to me, “Bart, you won’t make it six months in this business over there.” Yikes!

2001: My bodacious bride (Sparkle Barbie) calls and tells me to turn on the same as cash purchased big screen tv and tune into the news. The 911 attacks had just begun. After, the real estate market ceased, the stock market faltered, and gas prices soured.

2002: I hired my first assistant. Triggered by a late Friday night call I received at the office. A former client asked to spend the night at my house because he just had a big fight with his wife.

“Uh, no.” I had two little girls at home. He ended up dropping by the office and borrowing the forty bucks I had on me in order to get a hotel room. As he left I watched him (he was drunk) urinate in the storm drain on the way back to his car. As I sat in my 2nd floor office late on a Friday night while my poor wife was home alone taking care of two young kids… I thought to myself,

“There’s got to be a better way!”

Kid2 was born August 28th 2002.

2003: I hired my first coach: Brian Buffini. He teaches me the importance of communicating with my sphere of influence.

2004: I left Century 21 for Remax.

2005: I hired my second coach: Craig Proctor. He teaches me the importance of “marketing”.

2007: November 28th Kid3 was born.

2008: In January Sparkle and I launched Bart Vickrey Real Estate!!! By September the stock market began to crash, the real estate bubble had burst, followed by a worldwide economic collapse which triggered The Great Recession.

2009: My company “nets” $100 for the entire year as I sit in my office binge watching Breaking Bad and playing online poker. (because very few people were buying and selling real estate).

*When the market crashed I drove a BMW and a Corvette Convertible, wore a fancy watch, had a vacation home in Bonita Springs Florida, was strapped to $38,000 in credit card debt, and had a $2,800 a month mortgage payment.

It was during these times that I fantasized about a “different” life. A life filled with ONLY the most important things. A simple life chock full of lovable memories with family and friends. A life with less “stuff” and more tranquility and peace from mind. (not a typo, I seek peace “from” mind).

It was in these fantasies that I dreamed up becoming debt free and financially independent. (Building a financial moat around my family).

2010: By the middle of the year I launched a direct mail expired listing program (combination of jumbo postcards and sales letters) that would make me $87,000 in its first full year and more than six figures each and every year after.

2012: The love of my life looks me dead in the eyes and asked, “Should we get a divorce?”

I was spending so much time and energy thinking about, talking about, and “doing” real estate - that I wasn’t loving my wife. She thought I had lost interest in her. I promised myself (after gallons of tears) that I would never put real estate in front of my family EVER again.

2013: In November Lady Spendsalot and I attend a Kinder/Reese real estate conference. We skip the last day and instead focus on cleaning up the database inside our Top Producer CRM system.

*I stopped counting after we reached 32 former clients that had sold their home with another agent after buying the home with me.

It was during this mini-mastermind between my Bride and I that I vowed to build a business built on Marketing once and for all. I vowed to give up the soul crushing heartache of cold-calling and door knocking.

I vowed to build a LOVABLE business that served me, my family, and my desired lifestyle… not the other way around.

2014: We launched what we dubbed the “Proper Communication Plan” to our database. With that plan we sent out our very first issue of our printed monthly newsletter called: Bart Vickrey’s Good Life Newsletter.

In the newsletter I wrote articles from the heart. Talking about lessons I learned chasing money, lusting after status, and ego driven behavior.

The newsletter went on to become THE greatest business building pillar in my entire career.

2016: On February 21st my book Real Estate Good Life was published. On September 30th we paid off our home.

2018: On February 26th my podcast Real Estate Good Life was launched (you can find it on iTunes, Stitcher, etc).

In June of 2018 I had visible abs for the first time in over two decades. The story that led me to achieving visible abs is hilarious and can be found on the podcast. (*the abs are still visible as I write this in May of 2020).

2020: On January 7th Sparkle and I paid off our investment line of credit which delivered us to complete personal debt freedom.

As I sit here in May, in the middle of a pandemic, all the lessons learned from all the mistakes made… and all the strategy followed from the fantasy sessions back during the great recession… has led me to the Good Life.
