Chris Johnsen Virtually Unstoppable with eXp Realty

Houston, Texas –  April 27, 2022 – Before the rest of the world was forced to switch to an online existence, Houston lawyer Chris Johnsen saw the value that an online model could bring to his practice: eliminating the need for a pricey downtown office and giving him a deeper and wider talent pool, filled with lawyers from suburbs and nearby communities who were interested in challenging legal matters without the commute. When Chris learned about the cloud brokerage, eXp Realty, he knew it was the right fit for his growing practice, bringing more value to his clients.

“My first career was in real estate,” Chris says. “That’s where I really cut my teeth. My dad was a developer with a real estate focus: we would buy run-down retail centers, fix them up, and do a five-year sales pattern. I majored in real estate and finance before going to law school, which I did because we had a lot of real estate attorneys, and I saw first-hand the value that real estate attorneys bring to a team.

“What first caught my attention with eXp was, from my understanding, that it was started by someone who had gone through the great recession and dealt with the overhead costs of running an office,” he says. “What I’ve seen in practice is that it’s easier to scale when you’re not restricted by geography. eXp is very forward-thinking, which is very like me as well. I appreciate that eXp is creating its own model as it goes.

“In a previous firm, I had the big corner office overlooking city hall, and clients would only come in once a year. It was a ridiculous waste of money, and I knew there had to be a better way. I firmly believe the client should hire the talent, not the downtown office with the plush leather seats that they’ll rarely sit in. I built my law practice to fit this model, and with this opportunity in eXp Realty, I can bring even more value to my clients in the Houston area, and across the state.”

“The cross opportunities that lay ahead for Chris and his team are astronomical. It’s fantastic to see professionals of his calibre come aboard and utilize eXp Realty’s technological and networking opportunities to their fullest benefit.”
