Brad Nix’s Summary
Real Estate, Technology, and Community are my passions.
I started a boutique real estate brokerage in 2005 with six agents and have grown Maxsell Real Estate to 26 agents all across North Atlanta.
I also founded REtechSouth, the southeast's largest real estate technology event, as a way to share my passions with the larger real estate community. Over 500 industry leaders attend the event each spring to learn how technology is changing our industry and how best to utilize the new tools available.
I believe communities of people are the most powerful and valuable force in our world. Whether it's the local community we live, work, and play in or an online community based on common interests - communities can raise the water level so all boats float and can reach their intended harbors. I'm always working to add more water to help others reach their destinations within my communities.
