New PLACE Partner Hudson Warren partners with PLACE for expansion tools.

FORT MYERS, Fla., January 2023 —PLACE, the industry’s only all-in-one business services and technology platform for top teams at any brokerage, announced today that Hudson Warren and Home Wise Team are now powered by PLACE. PLACE improves profitability and production to make running a real estate business easier.

Home Wise Team, led by CEO Hudson Warren, is a premier real estate group serving the gulf coast of Florida from Tampa to Naples. Since 2014, the team has helped more than 1,000 families buy and sell real estate and in 2022, closed more than $49 million in volume through 140 transactions.

Warren earned his real estate license in California during his 20s, where he cut his teeth in real estate for a few years before moving to Florida in 2014. He then became serious about the business, hired a coach, and treated his career choice as a business opportunity. “I started lead generating, working expireds, and building referral business,” said Warren. His first recruit, Andy Brinkoetter, had his real estate license but was primarily focused on his real estate photography business. After many lengthy discussions with Warren, Brinkoetter sold that business and joined Warren’s team without regret.

“Andy is honest, driven, and compassionate,” Warren said. “I needed somebody like-minded but different in the way they take action. With him, my business rose to the next level.” The duo built a successful team, and after a few years, Warren promoted Brinkoetter to director of sales. “Andy is an implementer — he makes my ideas work. He has rare, high-level talent.”

As Brinkoetter thrived in leadership and managed more day-to-day responsibilities, Warren pursued his passion for coaching other agents. “Hudson has an inspiring aura, and his ability to launch a vision is amazing,” said Brinkoetter. “People reach out to Hudson to join this team because of his successful ability to reveal and motivate agents’ strengths.”

Eventually, Warren hit a wall as a coach and educator, wanting to provide more coaching and resources than he could offer as one person. And Brinkoetter felt he was having to slow down to help agents speed up. They needed leverage.

“My agents deserve more training than I have the bandwidth to give,” Warren said. “I want to offer more.” He says PLACE gives successful agents room to grow with top-notch training, resources, and wealth building opportunities.

“PLACE provides resources to scale, and even advises us on business finances,” Warren said. “This means our agents can build teams within this team and be incentivized to stay.” Warren trusts PLACE to provide opportunities for his top producers, and Brinkoetter sees a future of expanded lead generation levers with the new support.

“PLACE tools and systems are ready for us to ‘plug and play,’ so I can follow my passions without getting stuck on creating new systems and processes.”

“I care about spending time with my family, building wealth for my family, and helping agents do the same in their lives,” explained Warren. “PLACE tools and systems are ready for us to ‘plug and play,’ so I can follow my passions without getting stuck on creating new systems and processes.”

“Hudson has a thoughtful, long-term vision for himself and others,” said PLACE Co-Founder Ben Kinney. “I love that he values coaching and family, and I’m glad he trusts PLACE to support his passions, community, and success.”

“Hudson is a talented coach and a perfect fit among PLACE Partners,” said Chris Suarez, co-founder of PLACE. “He is a mentor to many, and his enthusiasm is contagious. I can’t wait to see how PLACE empowers him.”
