David Christensen: Selling the Breaking Bad House, Diving the Titanic, and The Art of the Comeback
Description
My guest today has a resume unlike any other agent I’ve interviewed. He is a former Hollywood executive, he has dived 12,800 feet to the wreck of the Titanic, and he was the agent responsible for listing the world-famous "Breaking Bad" house.
David Christensen (eXp Realty) joins us to discuss how he applies Hollywood storytelling to real estate marketing. We dive deep into the strategy behind listing a modest Albuquerque home for nearly $4 million by reframing its value proposition from "residential" to "commercial attraction."
Beyond the big deals, David shares his powerful personal story of losing everything, finding sobriety, and rebuilding his "Second Act" to become a top-producing luxury agent in New England.
Key Takeaways:
The Valuation Reframe: Why the "Breaking Bad" house wasn't sold as a home, but as a business opportunity.
Hollywood Skills: Why listening and patience (learned from the music industry) are an agent's best weapons.
The Titanic Perspective: How visiting the ocean floor changed David’s perspective on pressure and life.
White Glove Service: Why luxury is a feeling, not a price point.
