AUSTIN KIMBLER

One young man embarked on his journey in the real estate industry with a stroke of luck and a display of integrity. Austin Kimbler, a self-proclaimed rebellious teenager, found himself involved in an incident where some kids damaged a property owned by the largest vacation rental management company in Key West. Taking responsibility, Kimbler collected money from the other youths involved and personally apologized to the property owner. This act left a lasting impression on the owner, and years later, when Kimbler had his real estate license and was working for the fire department, fate brought them together again in the hospital.

The property owner offered Kimbler a job, saying, “I heard you just got your real estate license, so why don’t you come work for me.” Within a month of joining the team, Kimbler achieved his first sale, marking the beginning of a successful career in real estate. It was on this team that Austin also met his current Broker and mentor, Justyn Ewald. At the age of 26, Austin has accomplished remarkable sales volumes, doubling his sales and commissions every year for the past three years.

During the initial two years in real estate, Kimbler’s work at the fire department allowed him to live within his means while saving and reinvesting his income back into the business. This fortunate situation set the stage for his growth.

Remaining grounded and focused, Kimbler prioritizes building strong relationships with his clients. Growing up in Key West, he deeply values the closeknit community and lifelong friendships formed there. He recognizes the significance of this unique environment and understands how it resonates with buyers. Rather than just selling real estate, Kimbler sells the Key West lifestyle—a package deal that encompasses the atmosphere, environment, and distinct reality offered by the area. Buyers are drawn to this all-encompassing experience. One of the greatest aspects of Kimbler’s work lies in the unlimited income potential that comes with the real estate industry. Unlike a regular nine-to-five job with fixed earnings, real estate rewards hard work and determination. Kimbler emphasizes that the sky’s the limit and highlights the direct correlation between effort and results. When client relationships are well-managed, they often lead to listings, referrals, and repeat business, creating a system that compounds upon itself and fosters exponential growth.

Alongside the financial incentives, real estate also offers relationship incentives. Kimbler acknowledges that his profession has introduced him to individuals he wouldn’t have encountered otherwise. At the age of 26, he frequently interacts with multi-millionaires and highly successful people, nurturing relationships that have been made possible through his career in real estate.

During rare moments when he’s not working, Kimbler takes pleasure in appreciating the beauty of Key West. He enjoys spending time on a boat, savoring the unique experiences the island has to offer.

In addition, the new school approach in real estate requires financial discipline and investment, but when executed correctly, it results in faster growth. Buying leads and investing in advertising create opportunities for client relationships, ultimately leading to successful outcomes. Each sale becomes a success story to share on social media and other platforms. Furthermore, when relationships are well-managed, many clients turn into listings, referrals, and sources of repeat business. This compounding system paves the way for exponential growth.
