Today Roland Frasier introduces the Co-founder of 7-year-old Big Block Realty, Sam Khorramian, and they talk acquisitions and growth. Last year Big Block did almost 4 billion in sales with their innovative model and over a thousand agents. They also hit the top 35 fastest growing companies three years in a row. Sam and his partner Oliver Graf are looking to expand Nationally, and you will hear today how they’re doing this through acquisitions. Listen for a step-by-step case study on how an acquisition deal goes down.
“Acquisitions, in general, are some of the most predictable and scalable ways to grow your business. So we’ve purchased a really large Facebook group. We’ve bought a few brokerages, we’ve purchased parts of a marketing agency, a software company, all of these things we’ve done with no money or very little money down“. Sam Khorramian
