In this exclusive interview with Shon Kokoszka, you’ll learn how this self-described “technology executive working in the real estate industry” has put him on-track to sell 10,000 homes in the course of his career – and the role that technology plays in helping him manage his high-volume real estate pipeline.

John has extensive experience in virtually every aspect of the real estate industry – from executive positions in multiple private equity funds (up to $1.5B) to loss mitigation, servicing, outsourcing and brokerage – a background that gives him a unique edge when making decisions.

John’s in-depth view of the market has also led him to formulate an important focus on social responsibility and a push towards feasible and sustainable homeownership by turning “houses” back into “homes,” thereby leading to true neighborhood stabilization and an ultimate rise in home values.
