Lakewood is the second-largest city in Pierce County, behind Tacoma, and it was incorporated in 1996. It sits next to Joint Base Lewis-McChord, a major Army and Air Force base, and has several lakes inside city limits, led by American Lake, plus Lake Steilacoom and Gravelly Lake.

Each part of the city draws its own buyers. Lakefront neighborhoods draw buyers looking for water access and established homes. Neighborhoods near Lakewood Towne Center and the International District along South Tacoma Way draw first-time and move-up buyers. Fort Steilacoom Park, the historic Thornewood estate, and Pierce College Fort Steilacoom are all in the city, and the Clover Park School District serves most of it.

What The Randy Bacon Group Provides Lakewood Agents

We help licensed Lakewood agents join EXP Realty with lead generation and follow-up systems, CRM setup, onboarding support, Google Business Profile guidance, YouTube strategy, daily office hours, and a group of experienced agents in your corner.

EXP Realty provides the platform. We build your lead generation and follow-up systems with you, so you have steady conversations, stay in front of your database, and build a stronger business in Lakewood and Pierce County.

Why Lakewood Is a Strong Market for Agents With Systems

Lakewood had 63,612 residents at the 2020 Census, up from 58,163 in 2010. St. Clare Hospital is the largest employer, over 9,000 local jobs are in healthcare, and the economy depends heavily on Joint Base Lewis-McChord, with 55,000 total employees.

That mix brings a steady range of buyers: military families on PCS orders, healthcare workers, first-time buyers, lakefront buyers, and families moving up within the South Sound. Military moves run on tight timelines, so agents who stay visible and follow up fast are the ones these buyers call.

How to Choose an EXP Realty Sponsor in Lakewood

The right sponsor can clearly tell you what happens after you join. Ask:

Who helps me get set up?
Who sets up my CRM?
Who builds my lead generation systems?
Who helps with follow-up?
Who helps with local visibility?
Who do I call when I have a question?
Do I keep my brand, my database, my relationships, and my commissions?

EXP gives every agent the same strong platform. Your sponsor helps decide what gets built around your business. Read how to choose the right EXP Realty sponsor, and see what an EXP Realty sponsor does.

What It Costs to Partner With The Randy Bacon Group

Agents pay no fees and no commission splits to be part of The Randy Bacon Group. You pay standard EXP Realty fees plus any ad budget you choose. A few optional tools have their own small costs, and we'll walk through them before you commit.

You keep your brand. You keep your database. You keep your client relationships. You keep your commissions.

Revenue share is EXP's compensation to the sponsor, paid from EXP's own model.

What We Build With You

Lead Generation Systems

Cash-offer seller funnels, home valuation funnels, buyer funnels, military relocation funnels, first-time buyer funnels, and database revival campaigns built for Lakewood and Pierce County, with micro-market positioning for American Lake, Lake Steilacoom, Gravelly Lake, and the neighborhoods near Lakewood Towne Center, plus nearby Tacoma, Steilacoom, and University Place.

CRM Setup in BoldTrail or Lofty

You choose the platform that fits your workflow. We set it up with pipelines, tags, automations, follow-up sequences, and database structure, so you're ready to run from day one.

Follow-Up Automation

Twelve-plus months of email and text nurture keep prospects, leads, and past clients hearing from you, even on your busiest weeks.

Local Authority Content

YouTube strategy, Google Business Profile guidance, city-specific content planning, and local visibility support for Lakewood, including lake neighborhood content, military relocation content for Joint Base Lewis-McChord families, and first-time buyer content for the South Sound.

Agent Accelerator and Daily Support

Graduates of the six-week Agent Accelerator get one free year of Realty.com leads, with no referral fee. You also get office hours Monday through Friday, weekly masterminds, and direct access to Randy and the team.

Buyer and Listing Training

The Expert Advisor Bootcamp covers the S.M.A.R.T. Homebuyer System, from finding motivated buyers to running buyer consultations that turn clients into referral sources, plus the Bulletproof 29-Step Listing System from first seller conversation to closing day.

Revenos: More Lead Opportunities Inside EXP

Revenos is EXP's referral and lead opportunity division. It can connect you to relocation leads, REO opportunities, affinity leads, ExpressOffers, and corporate relocation referrals.

In Lakewood, Joint Base Lewis-McChord and local healthcare employers bring service members, families, and workers from other regions who need housing quickly. We help you see where Revenos opportunities fit and connect them to your lead generation, CRM, and follow-up.

How Lakewood Agents Build Consistency

You close a few deals, and your days fill with showings, negotiations, and client calls. That's the good part. Your systems keep the next opportunity moving while you're busy.

Leads keep coming in. Automated follow-up nurtures people who aren't ready yet. Your CRM shows you who to call each morning. You always know your next move.

Systems create clarity. Consistency creates momentum. That's what this partnership builds.

What Agents in Our Group Say

"Within my first month my phone started ringing, and I was on vacation in Mexico when it kicked off. I had buyers and sellers under contract and real conversations going. I have used a lot of systems and gotten a lot of promises. This one actually works."

Pete Garcia, Agent Partner, EXP Realty

"Before this I was producing consistently but felt stuck. Feast or famine, over and over. Within a month I took a major listing and was working with a strong buyer. Agents I used to work with are calling me asking what changed. I finally have a routine, a structure, and the confidence that results are coming."

Luis, 20-Year Agent, EXP Realty

Here's what agents have shared once their systems were running:

Pete Garcia generated 53 leads, had two sellers and a buyer under contract, and had 12 active conversations within 31 days. He was in Mexico when it started. His phone started ringing while he was on vacation.
Luis, a 20-year agent, went from feast or famine to closing a 2.4 million dollar listing and working with a 1.1 million dollar buyer in the same month after his systems were built.
One agent generated 212 leads in two weeks at ten dollars a day.
Another agent made 52,000 dollars in commissions from a system running at fifteen dollars a day.

What these agents share is a real system running under their business and the habit of working it every day.

Building Long-Term Wealth at EXP

EXP Realty gives agents a strong platform to build on, with cloud-based tools, revenue share, stock opportunities, broker support, weekly training, collaboration, and a national and international referral network.

Through revenue share, agents who attract other agents to EXP can build income that doesn't require them to be in a transaction. Through stock awards, EXP agents can earn equity in the company. Over time, a well-built EXP business becomes something with real equity, not just a commission stream.

EXP provides the platform. We build your lead generation and follow-up systems on top of it.

Who This Partnership Is For

Agents who want a more consistent business while keeping full ownership of their brand, database, relationships, and commissions.
Coachable agents who take ownership of their results.
Agents who want lead generation and follow-up systems, local visibility, and practical support working together.

Your effort plus our systems is the combination that creates momentum.
