Over the past 20 years, Dustin Oldfather has connected with and been coached by the best in the real estate business, including several of our guests on Real Estate Team OS.

As a result, he’s experimented with different methods and models - with VAs, ISAs, training cadence, lead distribution, and more.

The top-ranked real estate team in Delaware, The Oldfather Group is an 80-agent team driven by responsibility-centered leadership, opportunity meritocracy, and interactive, one-on-one training.

Dustin walks us through how they’re pairing local staff paid 15% above market with international VAs to improve performance and reduce vulnerability, how they’ve added meritocracy and agent voice to their model, why they’ve both insourced and outsourced the ISA function, and exactly how they deliver training day by day.

Watch or listen to this conversation with Dustin for insight into:
