Ben Caballero

America’s number one Realtor® for the last five straight years – Ben Caballero, president of Texas-based HomesUSA.com – has become the first billion-dollar producer in the world for total home sales last year. Caballero personally was responsible for 2,491 home sales, totaling $1,022,000,000 in 2015. Caballero sold five-times as many homes as the second ranked U.S. agent. Nearly all of his transactions were new home sales for more than 40 homebuilder brands that he represents throughout the Dallas-Ft. Worth, Houston, San Antonio, and Austin metro areas. Caballero’s success is the result of a new technology he developed: an online homebuilder sales platform that streamlines the MLS listing and marketing process for builders, charging a flat-fee versus a sales commission.
