Kofi Nartey

Our instructor, trainer, and facilitator for this certification was Kofi Nartey. I have had the opportunity to listen to many keynote speakers, and I always admired Tom Brokaw as one of the best speakers I have had a chance to listen to. Now I have to add Kofi Nartey to the very top of the list. Sorry, Tom. Kofi Nartey was the most exciting and dynamic speaker I have been around. He would interject "Kofi-isms" throughout the luxury home market training.  He did not concentrate on himself with all his accomplishments, of which there are many. Instead, he presented the material in such an exciting and energetic style that I was utterly riveted, taking notes with full attention. Kofi mentioned that he had done many cameo appearances on TV shows and that he had played football, but I had to research his bio to get the snippet of information below. Some of Kofi Nartey's accomplishments... Kofi is the Broker Associate and National Compass Sports and Entertainment Division Director. Kofi and his team focus on celebrity and luxury home sales. He played football for Cal Berkeley and later completed his MBA in the Presidential and Key Executive Program at Pepperdine University in LA. The Oakland Raiders drafted him, but an injury kept him from playing professional football. His luxury real estate niche is sports and entertainment. His distinguished clientele includes Michael Jordon, Derek Fisher, Iggy Azalea, and Kevin Durant. His team, "The Nartey Group," helped many of the LA Rams with their relocation. He has appeared in over 100 national television and print media outlets, including WSJ, LA Times, Chicago Tribune, CBS, CNBC, Fox Business News, ESPN, etc. He has appeared on HGTV's Selling LA and numerous appearances on Million Dollar Listing. I could go on and on. He is a great speaker and personality.
