/What does it take to build a real estate career before most people even graduate from college?

In this episode of the Madison Mortgage Podcast, host Ben Lavender sits down with rising agent Max Cassamajor of Power Move Realty to unpack what it’s really like starting young, building confidence, and turning social media into a lead machine.

Max shares how his very first deal came from a simple Instagram reel… with only $2/day in advertising — proving you don’t need to go viral, you need to be visible.

This conversation is full of mindset shifts, tactical takeaways, and hilarious door-knocking reality checks.
