Pat’s Journey
Pat has not always been a semi-retired, New York Times International Best Selling Author, podcast host, entrepreneur, and billion dollar real estate agent. After throwing his graduation cap at Frostburg State University in the summer of 1987 (A long time ago), Pat set out to find that necessary three letter word…..JOB. While trying to get his Real Estate license Pat substitute taught in Maryland, where he has lived his entire life.
His first year in Real Estate was…. decent. Selling 10 homes, and taking home $13,700 in commissions Pat knew that he needed more. At the beginning of his third year in the industry, attending a Floyd Wickman Sweathog Course changed his life, and allowed him to realize that being a listing agent was the way to go. He made a commitment, and switched to prospecting regularly for listings by calling up and down every street in town looking for future sellers. BOOM business for him tripled. From there, the sky was the limit. After spending a few years at Long and Foster Realty, he made a switch to RE/MAX where he spent the next 15 years. In 2004, Pat Hiban became the #1 RE/MAX agent in the world.
After earning the #1 agent in the world ranking from two different major companies, Pat decided to write his book, which was published in 2011- 6 Steps to 7 Figures: A Real Estate Professionals Guide to Building Wealth and Creating Your Destiny. During launch week, Pat’s book became #6 on the New York Times Best Seller List, #2 on the USA Today Best Seller List, #1 on Barnes and Noble and #2 on the Amazon Best Seller List. Crazy hey?
