In January of 2012, as we made our way out of the Great Recession, ethics in real estate was at an all-time low. And Joe Fustolo asked himself, ‘How can I fix this?’

He created the Masters in Real Estate Facebook Group to foster professionalism and cooperation among real estate professionals in the Portland tri-county area.

Ten years later, Masters is nearly 8,000 members strong, and Joe’s commitment to the integrity of the group sets it apart from other real estate related communities on Facebook.

On this episode of the Portland Real Estate Podcast, Joe and cohost Steve Nassar celebrate the 10-year anniversary of Masters in Real Estate, discussing what the group looked like in its early days and how the community grew over time.

Joe shares the mandatory questions prospective members must answer to be approved, reviewing what's okay to post (and what’s not) and explaining why members who break the rules are blocked.

Listen in for insight on asking for vendor recommendations on the platform and find out how staying relatively small and local differentiates Masters from other real estate communities on Facebook.
