Green Bay, WI, March 2022 — PLACE, a real estate technology and business services platform providing everything top professionals need for their business all in one place, announced today that Laura Rabas and the Laura Rabas Real Estate Team are now powered by PLACE.

Consistently ranked as a top 10 percent producing agent in Brown County, Rabas is committed to providing the highest standard of service to her clients. In 2021, the Laura Rabas Real Estate Team closed $48 million in volume and delivered the dream of homeownership to 199 families.

Rabas never considered a career in real estate until 2013, when she and her husband were buying their first home. “I had an elementary education degree, we had just moved here, and I was waiting tables while I figured out what I wanted to do,” Rabas explained. “I decided to give it a try. Real estate was a calling that came out of nowhere. Now, I can’t imagine doing anything else. It changed my life forever.”

“Real estate was a calling that came out of nowhere. Now, I can’t imagine doing anything else.”

During her first 6 months in the business, Rabas sold 42 houses. Many of her first transactions were with the employees and owners of the restaurant she once waited tables at. “I was pregnant and I think the baby helped me get sales,” she recalls with a laugh. “I also love competition. I love pushing limits and I love learning and growing and real estate allows me to create an environment where I can achieve as much as I desire.” Rabas found fulfillment working with clients at different stages in their life to help them fulfill their dream of owning a home. “It’s exciting to be a part of people’s journey,” she said.

After a few successful years going it alone, Rabas, in 2017, formed her team. “If you have the determination and ability to get past a certain point, you owe it to the world to keep going,” she explained of her desire to help others achieve their dreams.

“I feel that PLACE, at this time in my life and in my career, will help me achieve even more.”

Keeping client service and relationships at the forefront have been key to her success. “When we meet a prospective client, they can see the passion running through us. They know that we care,” explained Rabas. “We have a strong business running in the background but it is our drive to better our knowledge and service that sets us apart.”

For years, Rabas tried to keep her personal and professional life separate. When she decided to put together a team she also decided to let her team and her clients know her full self – a mother and a professional. “Right now, my team is made up of all women who are in a similar place in their lives as I am,” she said. “We have school events, doctor’s appointments, and we set some boundaries to take care of the people and things that are important to us. We can be — and are — both super parents and super Realtors!”

Rabas discovered PLACE through a network of other women leaders in the real estate community. “Everyone said, ‘I wish I had known about PLACE years ago,’” she remembered. “I’m so proud to be connected with these top people and learn from the best in the business. I feel that PLACE, at this time in my life and in my career, will help me achieve even more.”

The partnership with PLACE will also allow Rabas to elevate her entire team. “Personal growth, professional growth, financial growth, coaching, investment opportunities,” said Rabas. “PLACE’s expertise is going to help my team achieve any goal.” She is also excited about operational benefits including training, technology, and health insurance that PLACE allows her to provide for her agents. But, she is as grateful for the culture of PLACE, including the leverage provided as she supports her team. “PLACE is definitely a win-win proposition for my team,” Rabas noted. “We will all be held more accountable and from a leadership perspective, PLACE’s models and systems are going to ensure all of us are living our best lives.”

“I love that Laura has built a team of incredible professionals who support each other as colleagues and as people,” said Chris Suarez, Co-Founder of PLACE. “We all want to build teams that allow us to live experiential lives and support our teams and our communities at the highest level. Laura’s desire to create a growth-minded environment where people are supported in reaching their true potential is what PLACE is all about.”

“Laura is truly exceptional at what she does,” said Ben Kinney, Co-Founder of PLACE. “There are very few people who are able to operate at such a high level, strive for balance in their work and life and who are eager to keep going, growing, learning, and supporting their team to achieve their dreams.. It’s a true win and a real honor to welcome her and her team to PLACE.”
