Our Coaches
Craig Proctor
Craig Proctor began his real estate career in 1988, and sold 27 homes that year, as a solo agent. He sold 222 homes with the help of 1 administrative assistant, and two licensed agents in 1991, at the age of 29, and was named the #1 Agent for Re/Max International. While his pursuit of success had paid off, he was growing tired of the 14 hour days and the crushing workload. When he found himself daydreaming more and more about an easier way to run his real estate business, he decided to develop his own system. By 1995, Craig started offering his Quantum Leap System to other agents, and the rest is history. While his program has undergone many changes over the years, his basic concept of offering an extensively tested, complete turnkey system for realtors has not changed. The Quantum Leap System has helped over 30,000 realtors improve their businesses, and their lives.

Todd Walters has achieved real estate career milestones since becoming a real estate agent in 1990. Todd has been involved in over 5,000 transactions, and earned over $25 million in commissions. He was ranked in the top 10 for Re/Max International and in the top 20 agents for NAR. He was hand picked by Craig Proctor in 2003 to assist Craig with the Platinum Program, North America's Premiere Real Estate Coaching Level Program. Todd also co-founded Distress Sale University and currently coaches our clients in both the Platinum Program and Distress Sale University with great success.

Warren Flax
Armed with his Masters of Business Administration, Warren spent years working as a strategic management consultant before making the decision to leave the hectic travel schedule of Consulting and become a fulltime Realtor. At the end of his first year selling real estate, he knew he did not want to continue devoting all of his time and energy to a business that produced such unpredictable results, so he began searching for a successful business template. He decided to take a chance with Craig Proctor, and with high hopes attended our Superconference in Phoenix, Arizona. After joining Craig Proctor’s coaching program, Warren knew he had found the system his real estate business had been lacking. His steady growth led him to RE/MAX, and then Keller Williams, before eventually forming his own brokerage in 2008. Warren’s Platinum Realty Team, with offices in Pennsylvania and New Jersey, sold 116 homes in 2010 and will top 125 in 2011; ranking 9th out of 28,000 MLS members in units sold. His background in business consulting and his keen understanding of our Quantum Leap System make Warren an outstanding member of our Coaching Team.
