After 76 Years, Rhode Island's Most Trusted Real Estate Name Made a Big Move
By Bean Group Team
In 1949, George Slocum opened a real estate office in Warwick, Rhode Island. Seventy-six years later, his family's business is still thriving—and just made the biggest strategic move in its history.
76 Years of Success
76 years of continuous family operation
249 families served in the past 12 months
$109 million in annual sales volume
30 agents and 7 staff members
7 consecutive years on America's Best Real Estate Professionals
100% Team Buy-In
Here's what makes this story remarkable: when Nick Slocum presented the opportunity to his team, every single agent signed on. Not most. Not the majority. Everyone.
"That speaks volumes about the trust our team places in us as leaders and the excitement for what eXp represents."— Nick Slocum
When 30 agents who've built their careers on a 76-year legacy unanimously agree on a major change, that's not impulse—that's conviction.
Why Now? Why eXp?
Nick Slocum was initially skeptical. But conversations with members of the Zillow Agent Advisory Board and a meeting with eXp CEO Leo Pareja changed his perspective.
"Leo isn't just a corporate executive. He built one of the top teams in the country and knows exactly what it feels like to be in the trenches. What ultimately convinced us was the people, the collaboration, and the future opportunities eXp offers."— Nick Slocum
"Agents here aren't just selling homes—they're building equity, creating passive income, and connecting with a global community where iron sharpens iron."
Protecting a Legacy While Building the Future
The Slocums aren't abandoning what made them successful. Nick made that clear: "Serving families in Rhode Island and Southern New England will always be our foundation."
But he also recognized the opportunity: "Now our agents have a bigger platform, a larger toolbox, and a global network. Seventy-six years after my grandfather opened his office, we're still carrying the American dream forward—just on a much larger stage."
The Right Question
Nick Slocum put it simply: the future of real estate belongs to those willing to evolve while staying true to their values. What does your future look like?
