In the premiere episode of the Omada Podcast, host Greg Kirkham sits down with Russell Faucette, co-owner of Omada Real Estate, for a raw, inspiring origin story. From a Colorado kid dreaming of big homes (his "vision board" neighbor's mansion) to BYU business grad juggling psych, accounting, and real estate classes, Russell shares his wild path: A mission to Spain, easy 2007 home buy gone wrong in the crash, maxed student loans, and rock-bottom shoebox change for groceries, learning how short-sale hustles, late-night caulking gigs, and joining the powerhouse Stern Team ignited his comeback—replacing income fast, automating ops with key hires, and flipping homes on credit cards. Fast-forward to 2021: Russell and partner Jeremy buy the Stern legacy, birthing Omada's rev-share model—low-fee brokerage with mentorship (10% post-close), lead gen for newbies, team-building paths, and broker opps without franchise buys. No more 95% dropout agents; Omada's apprentice-style career ladder from TC to owner, scalable assets over handshake DB handoffs. Produced by The NXC Podcast Network, this episode equips agents and dreamers with action-first grit: Reserves, budgets, systems for sustainable wins.
