Inspired by his hardworking mother and dedicated to wanting to help others, Evan always knew he was meant to become a REALTOR®. With only four years of experience and a career volume of over $36 million in sales, there is no doubt that his outstanding work in the industry makes him a powerhouse in the Upstate.

Growing up, Evan admired and respected his mother, a single woman who made many sacrifices to provide her son with the best life she could make. From waitressing at Pizza Hut to working 60+ hours as a store manager while taking night classes to earn her Associate’s degree, he appreciated how hard his mother worked to provide for their family.

In 2002, Evan’s mother decided to bet on herself and flipped her very first home. As a result, she made a significant profit, which allowed her to put her son into a private school where he could bridge the knowledge gap from his previous public school. That victory showed him how the real estate business could be a great start to a new chapter in life.

Because of his mother’s love and diligence, Evan was the first in his family to obtain a four-year degree and earned it from the University of South Carolina in 2012. However, before he became a REALTOR®, he began working for a real estate software company named BoomTown in 2015. His former sales director and mentor taught him the value of everyday self-improvement and how to be a vital member of his community. He knew that these life lessons from these influential people in his life would lead to a fantastic career in the industry.

In 2019, Evan married the love of his life, Bridget, in Greenville, where they decided, after their honeymoon, they would settle down. Two months later, he went on to earn his license and, soon after, joined Keller Williams Drive as a real estate consultant. Under their tutelage, he started to gain in-the-field experience and retain many lessons and practices taught to him as a new agent. Though his very first showing stood him up after numerous calls and no responses, that did not cause him to waver on what he knew would be a one-of-a-kind journey.

The following year, however, presented many obstacles and doubts for Evan in this new profession as COVID-19 took the stage. Without the ability to take his clients to view properties or have one-on-one meetings with his peers, the task of finding a family a brand new home seemed out of reach. Pushing all uncertainties and fears to the side, he put everything he could muster into his job, working seven days a week for the first two years. Finally, with encouragement from his wife and family, he was able to help 21 families, ending his first year with $6.9 million in sales.

In 2022, Evan parted ways with Keller Williams, but found a new agency to call home at Real Broker, LLC.

Evan reflects, “During my first week, I was invited to mastermind with seasoned agents, and it was a unique opportunity to work with them. At Real Broker, LLC, they believe that everyone should benefit from each other. I have seen firsthand that the agents believe in teamwork and practice what they preach.”

While he continues to be an ambitious REALTOR®, Evan has become passionate about creating a positive business brand. To increase their clientele and promote their agency, he focuses on improving their online presence through social media, blogs, and a YouTube channel, where he and his team provide valuable information about the buying and selling process of real estate.

When they are not in the office, Evan and his team donate and volunteer to paint and arrange apartment buildings for new tenants for Front Porch Housing. Much like his objective in life, the organization focuses on helping people create new foundations to build on their lives by providing the basic necessities, opportunities, and tools to learn how to handle daily affairs better.

After a few years in the industry and becoming a family of three, Evan has come to define success in a whole new way.

Evan states, “It’s a success when I can come home to have more dinners with my family and nighttime routines with my son than before. It’s also a success when I can provide my clients with the highest level of services while never sacrificing my ideals or values. Being fully present for my family and clientele is the best thing about this business.”

Having been taught all he knows about the real estate industry, Evan is happy to help new up-and-coming agents learn the ropes.

Evan states, “My advice to the new top producers is to become decisive on what they want their business to look like and what sacrifices they are willing to or not willing to make to get there. Then, make sure that those you love understand your goals as well. After that, create a schedule and stick to it. Hard work and consistency will create amazing results over time.”

Ultimately, Evan's mission is to serve his clients to the best of his ability and help build community. He cheerfully remembers assisting a woman looking to purchase a home where her grandson could make friends and play in a safe neighborhood. Thanks to Evan, in the first week of living in their new home, his client's grandson made a friend, learned to ride a bike, and began to play with other kids his age. As a devoted family man, a high-producing agent, and a community supporter, he is the ideal businessman to work with when finding one's dream home or helping someone sell their home for the highest amount possible.
