Why Real Estate Agents Thrive with Leverage

Real estate agents on the Stern team share how leveraging support and structure has boosted their success and growth potential.

Ready to take your real estate career to new heights? At the Stern Team, we’re all about growth—not just for our business but for every team member. Today, I want to share the story of AB Moreno, one of our rising stars, and how our structured support, leverage, and sense of community have enabled incredible professional transformations.

AB Moreno, a talented real estate agent, knows all too well that success in real estate is about more than just opportunities. “Real estate offers endless growth opportunities, and there’s no ceiling on how much you can earn,” AB begins, emphasizing the potential that first drew him to the industry. However, when choosing the right place to grow, AB recognized that it wasn’t just about opportunity but the right kind of support. “What drew me to the Stern Team was the leverage they provide to top-producing agents. The support here is seamless. Everything is handled at a high level—from well-crafted listing packets to effective marketing strategies—and that sets the Stern Team apart.”

This kind of support means agents like AB can focus their time and energy on what truly matters—building relationships, closing deals, and honing their craft. The seamless integration of well-designed systems and powerful marketing tools distinguishes the Stern Team. It’s not just about working hard; it’s about working smart with the right tools.

AB reflects on his journey and what makes him stand out as an agent: “When I think about what makes me different, it’s my intensity, drive, and passion for real estate.” That drive and passion are critical ingredients for success, but AB also knows that being part of a team with a strong foundation allows agents to truly reach their full potential. “To anyone considering joining this team, I’d say: don’t fear competition. You must be driven, set big goals, and embrace accountability here. It’s not always easy, but it’s worth it. If you’re willing to work, there’s no limit to your success.”

AB’s perspective speaks to the heart of the Stern Team: ambition and accountability. At Stern, agents don’t just receive support—they’re also challenged to grow. The culture encourages agents to set ambitious goals and provides the framework to achieve them. It’s a community where growth is expected, celebrated, and cultivated daily.

AB shares wisdom for anyone starting their real estate career: “Fail fast, fail often, and fail forward. Learn from every experience and keep improving.” This attitude of resilience and continuous learning distinguishes successful agents from the rest. Growth isn’t linear, and embracing the bumps is essential to building a solid foundation. AB admits, “If I could go back, I’d tell myself to set up a proper S Corp or LLC and plan for taxes sooner—financial organization is crucial for long-term success.” These reflections reveal AB’s personal growth and the importance of preparation and strategy in an industry that rewards proactive thinking.

Ultimately, the best advice AB has ever received is simple but powerful: “Take care of the work, and the work will take care of you.” This principle guides the Stern Team’s philosophy. Agents ensure that success follows by dedicating themselves to doing the work at the highest level. At Stern, we create an environment where agents are set up to excel—through mentorship, structured systems, and a supportive community.
