Where It All Started
The company
Agent From Abundance was founded in 2022 by Ant Stroud, inspired by a vision that came to him during a speaker bootcamp hosted by Leigh Brown. He recognized a pressing need for a centralized hub where real estate professionals could access all the resources they need—regardless of their brokerage affiliation.
Having served as a trainer for a large brokerage, Ant often found himself limited in his ability to support agents outside his organization. This experience stayed with him, fueling his determination to create something different—something inclusive. Agent From Abundance was born out of this desire to create a supportive environment where agents from any brokerage could come together without the fear of recruitment pressures.
At Agent From Abundance, our guiding principle is clear: We are not a brokerage, but rather a partner to your brokerage. We do not recruit, and we do not tolerate recruitment in any of our spaces. This is a neutral zone, designed to foster collaboration, share knowledge, and create synergy among real estate professionals.
As Ant connected with agents across the industry, it became evident that Agent From Abundance could be a powerful catalyst for helping real estate professionals thrive with an abundance mindset. We are committed to supporting your journey toward success, and we have some exciting plans in store.
We invite you to join us in this mission. Together, let’s create an environment where every real estate professional can grow, share, and succeed. Partner with Agent From Abundance, and let’s thrive together.
