QUOTES
- "When people come into our office, every single person gets the same exact treatment… You know, everybody's got the same script. And no matter who you deal with, I want them to have the most incredible real estate experience they ever received." - Alex Corona
- "It is success. It doesn't matter what it does. You could always do it no matter how busy you are. You heard it from the man, Alex." - Derek Skubisz
- “Managing people is not easy. And a lot of times you want it more for them than they want it for themselves. And it's hard because I see it in them and I'm like, ‘Man, if this person could just do a little bit more.’ And then the hard part is they're right there and then they give up and quit. And it's like, ‘Man, you were right there. If you would have just went a little bit further.’” - Alex Corona
