Jeff Stewart, a non-traditional thinker who found a home in the class of ’94, graduated from the UGA Terry College of Business in 2004 after spending 5 years in Maine working in the bike and kayak industry. While at UGA Jeff and a classmate invented, designed and manufactured an industry changing cycling component that made its way to the top of the industry and the Tour de France. Jeff and his partner pivoted to designing a biomimetic swimfin that landed them as supporting crew with a BBC film in Mexico swimming with sharks and again disrupting the industry.
Raised in the mountains of Asheville, his knowledge and love of western North Carolina welcomed a move into real estate here in WNC. Not long after venturing into real estate, Jeff was named a top producer at Keller Williams. Following four years of strong success working with buyers and sellers, Jeff and his wife Leah founded The Broker Asheville Team, which to-date has been honored to sell $150M in real estate locally.
"In real estate I was building a real business and I had been relying on grit and determination to fail my way to what I now understand to have been my talent ceiling. At Keller Williams, I found a business coach who helped me learn and implement models, and live by my P and L. This coach was a patient mentor who helped me understand, and become a student of the nuances of leadership and culture. Here is where I really identified my passion in developing others and going BIG. Subsequently our business grew at an alarming rate and we were able to develop the #1 team in my office. Shortly thereafter, our group was the #1 producer in our MLS. I continued to grow in my leadership skills and became the CEO of our KW office 3 years ago, managing 4 locations in WNC. In that time we have grown our office from 33rd to the 14th Keller Williams nation-wide.” Jeff Stewart '94
When Jeff is not working, you can find him riding or racing his bike, playing outside with Leah and their two sons, Jackson and Wyatt, or maybe planning their next family trip to Maine.
