Or maybe we should say,
“Home is where the millions are...” at least that’s what can be said of Josh and Matt Altman of BRAVO’s hit show “Million Dollar Listings Los Angeles.” To date, the super duo has closed over 200 million dollars in real estate, and the numbers aren’t stopping anytime soon. You might think that having a hit reality television show puts everything on “easy street,” and over the past seven years it could be a fact that the Altman brothers’ lives and current careers have become legendary due to the their time in the spotlight; yet, amongst all of that glitz and glamour there has been a long road of hard work, dedication and, well…a lot of heart. Having the hit reality show is a product of that hard work and there wouldn’t be a reality show otherwise. Just ask any serious realtor and they’ll tell you the same. It’s very hard, sometimes impossible to secure that kind of high-end clientele. Million dollar listings don’t walk into your office or Google-search you. These types of clientele usually go to the realtors that can make things happen fast and are typically found through the industry network and referrals… unless you’re just lucky, which can happen in dreamland from time to time; but, whether it’s hard work, luck or a little of both, as far as the Altman brothers are concerned, it’s all business. We got to sit down with this dominant duo and their rock star agent Wes Pinkston, high up in the Hollywood hills at one of their amazing new million dollar listings to get the low down on what’s driving them.
