Build a business that lets you live your dreams

OUR MISSION

Create a transparent process for our clients, allowing them a voice in the transaction of their largest wealth decisions while instilling the highest customer experience.

Are you considering a real estate career with a flexible schedule, unlimited “learning” potential, and unlimited earning potential?


Or maybe you're already in real estate and working hard to reach your goals, but currently lack the support & income you need to achieve them.


I can speak from personal experience when I say that real estate has changed my life, both personally and professionally. The fulfillment I get from helping clients that trust me with their most important purchase, as well as the enjoyment from working with an amazing team and building a personal brand, have me excited to wake up and go to work on Mondays like I never experienced in any previous line of work.


That’s the great thing about real estate.

If you have big goals and are willing to work really hard to achieve them, this is a great career path to make that happen.


If you’re still reading, you’re probably someone that’s ready to take charge of your future and start climbing toward your own personal summit. I love that, and I’d like to talk more about that with you! But first, let me introduce myself.


My name is J. Michael Manley. In 2003, I owned a foreclosure management company. We had one major contract that was the driving force of

our business. Our client was bought out by another company and I was left high and dry with nowhere to go. I started in real estate and joined Keller Williams in 2009, but the market started shifting out from under me. We were living in the attic of my father and mother-in-law's house as we didn't have money to turn back the power on our apartment. Failure wasn't an option. When an opportunity knocks on the door, I grabbed it to come back up.

When I started the team in 2010, there were only 2 people. Hard work, strategic risk-taking, and the right tools have turned the lowest point of my life into a multi-million a year brokerage. For the last decade, the team has grown and still growing.


Our team has been recognized by agents and brokerages as the go-to team to learn how to implement new ideas in the real estate industry, from Internet lead generation, to how to utilize the showing agent model.


Unlike other teams, our company simultaneously helps you hit your goals with consistent lead flow AND a personalized marketing system that builds your own brand. Success and growth aren’t just the norms for us—they’re our standard. Our agents don’t just survive in this industry—they thrive.


Our team invests in our agents, in their training, skills, systems, and personal brands. We automate and pay for email, print, social media, and direct marketing that promotes them as the agent of choice for their respective markets.


Agents on our team can leverage the strength of our brand to create their own. This results in agents staying top-of-mind within their circles at all times and leads to more closed business.


But don’t just take my word for it. Consider the testimonies of Donald Barbour and Erika Bennet.


If you're a good culture fit and you're willing to work hard to achieve your goals, I want you to join our team and see the same type of success. We’ll provide the transaction support as well as all the marketing, training, and coaching you need to make it happen.


When you join us, your path to success starts right away. The first week we will get you set up in all of our tech systems. You’ll join all team training where you’ll have what’s guaranteed to be the most productive workday of your life.


Our support-oriented environment helps agents on our team to learn, grow, and thrive. We understand that to reach your goals you need support, coaching, and resources—so that is exactly what we provide. In fact, I guarantee that if you follow our system, you’ll make over $100,000 in your first year with us.


So what are you waiting for? It’s time to take control of your future.

“My experience working with the J. Michael Manley Team has been absolutely amazing.”

"I started with the team back in 2016. The first year with the J. Michael Manley Team, I have doubled my production from being an independent agent a year before. As the years have gone on, my production has increased from each year. The importance of the team has been on two levels, first the professional level, you can't replace the coaching, the training, and the team who work together and supports one another, so it helped me to grow professionally. On a personal level, the team has helped me be more proactive and staying in line with being a better husband and father with my kids. I can't thank the team enough as they help me to grow spiritually, individually, personally, and professionally.
