The Justin Ford Podcast
Justin Ford is an author, speaker, coach, and a top-producing ICON real estate agent with eXp Realty ranking in the top 1% in the USA! More importantly, Justin is a Husband, Dad, Grandpa, and follower of Jesus residing in the Metro Detroit, MI area. Justin didn’t start at the top or with an unfair advantage; as a matter of fact, it is the exact opposite. Justin comes from a broken home; he dropped out of high school, is a convicted felon, a former drug addict & alcoholic, and his life got so low that he drank water out of a toilet while in jail due to dehydration. If anyone shouldn’t be successful, it’s Justin! As Justin says it best, it doesn’t matter how you start; what matters is how you finish! Justin’s struggles and his past didn’t stop him from creating success, and whatever you are going through in life shouldn’t stop you. On this podcast, Justin will share with you life-changing principles and valuable information that will empower you to break free from any circumstances.

In this episode, Justin puts Joy on the spot with questions about building a business together, keeping marriage from being swallowed by work, what they each bring to the relationship, what they have had to learn to accept about each other, and what they would tell their younger selves if they could go back.
Joy's answers were honest. Justin's were too. And they said some things every married couple needs to hear.

Justin has been coaching one of the top real estate teams in Michigan for the last three months. Back-to-back all-time listing records. One agent who never prospected took 10 listings in a single month. The results speak for themselves.
Now he is opening it up to everyone.
In this episode, Justin announces the launch of BPS Group Coaching starting October 19th. A 12-week program on Zoom built around the one thing most coaching programs skip entirely. Not just what to say and how to say it. But why most agents never do it in the first place, and how to become the person who does it naturally.
If you are a real estate agent, this episode is for you.
📣 BPS Group Coaching launches October 19th at 2PM Eastern
12 weeks. Mondays. 75 minutes. $500 per month.

Most people who know Justin Ford today see the top 1% agent, national award winner, speaker, coach, and author. They do not know about the 13 arrests, the felony, the overdose, the girl he got pregnant at 17, or the moment he drank water out of a toilet in jail because he was so dehydrated he had no other choice.
In this episode, Justin makes the case that whatever you have been hiding in the basement of your life, whatever you are most ashamed of, might be the exact thing God wants to use to give somebody else hope.

Most people think the real estate market shuts down in the fall and winter. Justin and Joy are here to tell you that is exactly why it is one of the best times to make a move.
In this episode, they break down what actually happens to the market after Labor Day, why the buyers and sellers still out there in the winter are the most serious ones you will ever work with, and what real estate agents need to do right now to stay consistent through the slower months instead of coasting into January with an empty pipeline.
Joy also shares real deal stories about keeping transactions together when everything starts to fall apart. And Justin teases some big announcements coming in the next few episodes.

Most real estate agents are not struggling because they do not have enough leads. They are struggling because nobody ever taught them how to prospect, and they are too afraid of rejection to figure it out on their own.
Justin Ford sold 100 homes in his first year. Not because he had a big sphere of influence or a massive pipeline. Because he picked up the phone for three to four hours every single day and had conversations. The math is simple. Most agents just will not do it.
In this episode, Justin breaks down exactly why your pipeline is dry, what is actually holding you back, and what the Bulletproof Prospecting System can do to change that.
You do not have a lead problem. You have a skill problem. Let's fix it.

Justin never had a hobby. Then his 13-year-old son showed him an app called WhatNot and everything changed.
In this episode, Justin pulls back the curtain on the sports card business he and Judah have built together from scratch. Eight months in, Judah has done over $70,000 in sales. They just got back from Fanatics Fest in New York City. Justin out-negotiated a dealer in front of his son and watched something click in the kid right there on the floor.
But this episode is not really about sports cards. It is about finding something that lights you up outside of work and family, and what happens when you let your kid show you something instead of the other way around.
Kingdom Cards is official, and Justin and Judah are just getting started.

Couples who pray together every day have a divorce rate of less than 1%. Justin and Joy have been doing it for over 20 years, and they will tell you it has saved their marriage more than once.
In this episode, they get real about what praying together actually looks like, why most couples never start, and how five minutes a day can change everything. They also recommend a book that transformed their marriage and the marriages of every couple they brought into the challenge.
And then they just do it. Right there on air. No script. No warning. Justin grabs Joy's hand, and they pray for each other in front of everyone.

Seven years. Over a thousand agents coached. Prayer circles where hundreds of people gave their lives to Jesus. And God told Justin his assignment was done.
In this episode, Justin makes a major announcement. He is officially leaving GloverU and launching BPS Coaching, Bulletproof Prospecting System. He did not want to leave. It did not make sense on paper. He cried the whole way home on the plane from Phoenix when God made it clear. But within days of walking away, the phone started ringing, and God began to confirm exactly what He had been saying all along.
This is what obedience looks like when it costs you something.

Justin said he could live there. Joy was already mentally packing bags. Greece did something to the Ford family that no other trip has.
In this episode, Justin and Joy take you to Crete, the island most people skip on their way to Santorini, and it might be the most underrated place on earth. A 450-year-old Airbnb, a welcome dinner cooked by a Greek family from their own farm, the freshest food either of them has ever eaten, a catamaran on the 4th of July, and a 4,000-year-old village where the Apostle Paul almost certainly preached in the exact spot Justin was standing.
Oh, and Joy nearly had a full breakdown on the mountain roads. Justin thought it was great driving. Don't miss this one!
