Detroit Free Press Top Workplaces 2022 We took home #1 in the small business category! November 28, 2022 By Dustin McLaughlin Since DOBI opened its doors in August of 2018, our mission was to elevate what a Real Estate brokerage could be. Concierge level service to our agents which then trickles down to their clients. Now 4 years later and 100+ agents strong, we have cultivated something truly special in the heart of Birmingham, MI. The motif that flows through everything that we do is collaboration. Our modern headquarters features an open floorplan where agents in their first year are able to work alongside agents doing $15M. We have an in-house Marketing team that handles the DOBI brand as well as producing custom video, photography, and graphics for our agents’ business. The Agent Success department handles everything from getting a listing on the MLS, and ordering yard signs, to hosting our elevated closing experience. DOBI conducts multiple in-house trainings throughout the month where agents have an opportunity to talk about specific scenarios out in the field and learn best practices through technology and mentorship. There are many things that set us apart from the rest but the true DOBI difference is that we care. The culture is fun, inclusive and again, collaborative. In living up to our Come Together core value, we’ve donated our time and provided monetary contributions to multiple charities and organizations such as Shades of Pink, Kuddle4Kenzie, Boys and Girls Club of SE Michigan, and many more. As the year comes to a close, we’re humbled and honored to be chosen as the #1 spot for the Detroit Free Press Top Workplace Award within the small business category. Last year, winning #2 was exciting but in our competitive nature, we knew we had to put our best foot forward to claim our position at the top. At the end of the day, it’s our people, our DOBI family of agents and staff that make this place what it is. This award is dedicated to them.
