The Neighborhood Real Estate Agent
Bedridden to Brokering – Hacks & Mindsets to Level Up - Michael Coxen, NV
What if nearly losing everything taught you the secret to building a thriving real estate business without sacrificing your life? In this episode, I sit down with Michael Coxen, a Las Vegas broker who went from being bedridden at 115 pounds to running a 20-agent brokerage while maintaining $20-25 million in personal production.
We unpack how Michael built his career by accident through a wedding invitation business, discovered the power of asking questions over selling, and learned why focusing on process beats chasing outcomes every time—lessons that became crystal clear when ulcerative colitis nearly ended his career.
Inside this episode:
- The FORD method that turned wedding vendors into real estate clients
- Why saying yes to every meeting for 10 years changed everything
- How Tai Chi in a pool with seniors led to running a brokerage
- The 3-item daily success list that beats comparison trap
- Why great agents explain the market while good ones just understand it
