A day in the life of the top real-estate broker in the US, who sold $2.2 billion worth of homes in 2018, wakes up at 5 a.m. every day, and works out with a personal trainer 3 times a week

Business Insider, Jan 3, 2020

Ben Caballero is the top real-estate broker in the US, according to REAL Trends, a residential brokerage industry publication. He sold $2.2 billion worth of homes in 2018.

The Texas-based broker has been ranked as the top real-estate agent for nearly a decade by REAL Trends for both total sales and number of transactions. In 2018, the most recent year for which data is available, he sold 5,793 homes — an average of 111 homes a week.

He only sells new-construction residential properties and he works with volume builders only — or companies that build several hundred homes a year, sometimes up to 3,000.

Caballero created an online platform, HomesUSA, exclusively for volume home builders to track these hundreds of homes. The platform streamlines the process of creating a listing, tracking the progress of a house’s construction, and updating the listing when photography is added and when the home is complete. Caballero manages listings for more than 60 builders in the Dallas-Ft. Worth, Houston, Austin, and San Antonio areas.

He lives in Frisco, Texas, with his fiancée, Linda, and his dog, Sammy. Caballero has a son and a daughter.
