Market trends and tech innovations weren’t the heftiest matters on the real estate agents’ minds whenever Justin Murphy lumbered into their sales meetings.
The next big thing in Texas real estate stood 6 feet 6 and weighed about 280 pounds. Fortunately, he quickly put everyone at ease with his agreeable demeanor and ready smile.
“He’s a big ol’ teddy bear,” said Nancy Rawls, sales manager in the Re/max office in Lubbock, Texas. “He’s huge but he’s got the kindest heart.”
Murphy regularly flattened his new teammates during training camp after coming out of a medical retirement triggered by two injuries to the same knee when he played for Texas Tech.
