So much so, he secured his license and began his career during his junior year at UNT where he was awarded Rookie of the Year at RE/MAX North Associates.
A few years later after working with mainly traditional clients, Sellers carved a niche for himself in the residential foreclosure listing market. As the broker and owner of Texas Property Shop and several other remote brokerages, he and his team have closed over 6,000 transactions. He ensures his team of experts has the best tools to thrive in the real estate market and is constantly looking for ways to better serve institutional, commercial, and residential clients.
