The incredible people of St Lucia have been one of OJO and Movoto's competitive advantages for the last 6 plus years. The resilience, work ethic, compassion, and skills of our several hundred member St. Lucian team has fueled the growth of our company year after year. So when we were asked to host a new The University of Texas at Austin student at OJO HQ as she arrived in Austin her freshman year we of course were thrilled to meet her and let her know any St. Lucian in Austin has a friend waiting for them here. In that meeting when I asked her what her goals were she calmly and humbly said "I want to be the fastest woman in the world". I remember hearing that and thinking what a crazy aspiration that was. Those words echoed in my head on Saturday as I watched julien alfred do exactly what she set out to do, becoming the fastest woman in the world and bringing home St Lucia's first two Olympic medals. I feel so lucky and inspired to be able to have been in the presence of true greatness. At OJO one of our core values is "There is always a way" and that value is constantly lived by our St. Lucian team and most certainly demonstrated by Julien. I am so proud of St. Lucia! Go JUJU GO!

It was amazing to watch her power through the 100 m and 200 m. Am sure she loved meeting OJOans who knew her country so well.

Another great Inman Connect in the books. I made new friends and potential partners, got to see dear friends and long time partners, and came away inspired by the optimism and solution oriented approach the leaders in our industry are driving with. Thanks Brad Inman, Emily Paquette, Clelia Warburg Peters, Craig Rowe and the entire hardworking crew at Real Estate Connect Conference - Inman News

Couldn’t agree more with Luke’s post. This has long been the case where people assume software or tools alone fixes problems but that problem is even more extreme in the age of AI..Awesome to see my partners at OPSIQ leaning into Solutions As A Service vs pure Software As A Service. People, process, and well built technology can transform businesses when woven together correctly!

I am very proud to see Movoto named as a finalist in the coveted Inman innovator awards amongst some other great organizations and friends. Even more proud for the category it was named in. Homeowners, prospective home buyers, and industry professionals alike have faced extreme hardship over the last year so I am super thankful of team Movoto to run into the fire and use innovative approaches and resourcefulness to deliver much needed support and value for our partners and customers. Thanks Emily Paquette, Brad Inman, and the rest of team Inman for the recognition.

I Really enjoyed talking with AJ LaTrace about consumers, real estate agents, and fierce competition. If you aren't following the team at Real Estate News you should be as they are pumping out thoughtful, accurate, unbiased, and unbought real estate stories. Anyone that knows me knows I like a good fight so my team and I are in it to win it for the benefit of consumers, agents, and loan officers alike! Movoto| OJO #realestatenews #realestate #portals

Entrepreneurs that need financial services support 100% should contact Treaty Oak Financial Services. High quality finance is paramount to a startup’s success and most early stage companies lack access to true expertise. Amy Morris Bryant is one of the best finance professionals I have ever worked with and I couldn’t give a stronger recommendation to use her firm!
