Brent Spain - EXP Realty

Some transactions are business.
Some are personal.
This one was both.
Over the course of this home search, we toured 36 houses, wrote 4 offers, celebrated a few victories, and navigated some incredibly difficult moments along the way. There were high highs, low lows, and more than a few conversations where emotions ran strong.
The reality is that buying your first home is a life-changing experience. When the clients are close friends - the responsibility feels even greater.
Through every setback, we stayed patient, trusted the process, and kept moving forward.
Today, they're homeowners.
Moments like this are a reminder that the right house is worth waiting for, and that persistence often pays off when it matters most.
Congratulations, my friends. It was an honor to help guide you through one of the biggest milestones of your lives. 🏡🔑

Had a great weekend shooting the Iron Amos tournament at Tacoma Sportsman's Club.

I'll be honest—unmarked 3D isn't my favorite format. Picking out 10-rings on dark targets buried in the woods is tough, and trying to judge and execute on moving targets with a 6x lens is a challenge all its own. That said, every challenge is an opportunity to learn, and I took away some valuable lessons this weekend.

One of the biggest highlights wasn't my score—it was introducing a couple of friends to their very first archery tournament and getting to shoot alongside them all weekend. Watching them experience the sport at that level was awesome.

Sunday was something special. I shot a 331/360, but the score isn't what I'm most proud of. What stood out was how I shot. No mental mistakes. No lost arrows. No button-punching. Just solid ex*****on shot after shot. It was probably the best round of archery I've ever put together.

The biggest takeaway? I'm more encouraged by the growth than the results. The scores will come. The process is what matters.

Keep growing.
Keep learning.
Keep working.

Progress, not perfection.

I told chatgpt to analyze my Instagram and make a caricature of my life - Im flattered that chatgpt seems to think going to the gym is a part of my routine. Fairly accurate other than the fact I share more similarities in body type with the Michelin Man than Cam Hanes 🤣🤣🤣 but Keep Hammering baby!
2 closings this week and 2 new listings going on the market.
Its going to be a great year...

Tired… but grateful.
Had the opportunity to shoot in the Western Classic in Redding this weekend. Not gonna lie—part of me hesitated posting a 59th place finish… but the other part is proud of breaking 1400.
A lot of lessons learned, a lot to improve on—but that’s the game. This weekend was one I won’t forget.
Huge thank you to for pouring into me, getting me dialed, and giving me the push to go compete.
Back to work. 🎯
