The History of Troop Real Estate

Troop Real Estate was built upon a dream, a vision and a lot of hard work. And from that modest formula has emerged one of the most successful independent real estate companies in Southern california.

Starting in a small office in Simi Valley, California, with only six agents by his side, Brian Troop rolled up his sleeves and set out to make the Troop Real Estate dream become a reality. But it wasn't easy at first. After all, the year was 1987. The market was slow, mortgage rates were high and Troop Real Estate wasn't exactly a household name.

"In those early days, I remember many a time when I wondered whether this was the best idea in the world." Brian Recounts.

But as time passed, things began to improve. It was through Brian's steadfast commitment to the client that his small company began to garner a stellar reputation. And, as his reputation grew, so did the company's.

According to Brian "My philosophy then is the same as it is now: Always remember that the client deserves the agent's full attention and commitment to service. And always do what's right for them."

With positive word of mouth growing, more and more agents heard about this new independent real estate company and came to join forces. Soon it became clear that one office was not going to be enough, so a Thousand Oaks office was added to better serve the growing legion of clients. And soon came another . . .and another . . .and another . . . . And, as they say, from there the rest is history.

By doing business with an Independent Difference, sellers and buyers alike have chosen Troop Real Estate over many franchised chains for the personalized attention and outstanding service that they offer. And all along, Brian's original vision has lived on, helping to make his small company dream become a thriving and successful force in the Southern California real estate market.
