Dan Plowman

Since beginning his real estate career in 1989, Dan quickly established himself as a Top Producer, working his way up the ranks and earning awards each year. For many years, Dan hovered around the $150,000-$200,000 mark, but always had the dream of building a team to take him to the next level.
Through a period of trial and error, Dan took extensive notes and eventually developed the systems that he now uses on a daily basis to build and operate his successful team. For the last three consecutive years, Dan has been awarded Re/Max’s Diamond Club Award for earning over $1 million dollars in commissions.

Joselyn Burgess
When I met with Joselyn the first time, I knew I’d found a Superstar. The scary thing was she was considering quitting real estate altogether. I could see the passion and dedication she brings to life, and knew that with my system and her attitude we could build something special. That is exactly what we did; she grabbed a hold of my systems and ran with them. She has mastered the scripts, the buyer and the listing presentation and was one of the inaugural agents in my Leadership Program. Her success has been acknowledged by receiving the 100% club in 2007 and Platinum Award in 2008. She is one of the Top 10 Realtors in the Durham Region today.
Joselyn met her husband 19 years ago and has been married for 12 years and has 2 boys, ages 8 and 5. She loves her business and the flexibility it provides for her to pursue her passions; time with her family, traveling, and working out. Joselyn lives an amazing full life and is looking to share our secrets with you. Her dynamic skills, incredible energy, strong belief in teams and positive attitude will ensure that your business rises to the next level, and you live the life you foresee for yourself!
