Marcus Dilley SPS and ICON Agent

No way this was 5 years ago.

It’s wild how you don’t feel time passing in the moment.. then you look back at a picture like this and realize whole seasons have already come and gone. 

The smiles, the chaos, the inside jokes, the phases, the growth.. it all feels like it happened yesterday and a lifetime ago at the same time.

One day you’re just trying to get everyone out the door on time. The next, you’re staring at a memory that hits you right in the chest and reminds you how fast it’s all moving.

Grateful for every version of us along the way.. even the ones we didn’t realize we’d miss until they were gone.

Marvin is one of those places that hits different..
Luxury, lifestyle, and land. The perfect mix.

This new community is about to make a serious statement.
Smart design, beautiful lots, the kind of feel buyers are hunting for in 2026.

This is your first look.
Fast. Fresh. And exactly why Marvin stays one of the most desired zip codes in the Carolinas.

(Watch this.)

#thesignaturegroup #signaturegroupstrong

This one honestly leaves me floored.
Humbled.
Grateful.
And fired up for what's coming.

Mark and I launched The Signature Group this year. Brand new. Nobody knew what to expect. No momentum to borrow from. No legacy to lean on. Just a vision in our hearts and a team of people who were willing to bet on excellence and give everything they had to build something special.

And today we found out that The Signature Group has already ranked in the Top 10 teams for 2025 in the Ballantyne office.

In our first year together.

That only happens because of the people who show up every single day with heart, skill, consistency, and faithfulness.

To our agents.
Your courage. Your commitment. Your belief in the mission. Your willingness to grow. Your fight. Your professionalism. Your trust. All of it is the reason we are celebrating right now. None of this happens without you.

To our clients.
You put your biggest financial decisions in our hands and you allow us to serve you at a level that honors your trust. That means more than you know.

To our partners and my family.
Thank you for supporting the vision and pushing us to lead from a place of excellence, integrity, and heart.

And to everyone cheering us on.
This is only the beginning. We are just getting warmed up. If this is what happens in year one, I can't wait to see what God allows us to build together in 2026 and beyond.

The Signature Group is here.
And we're only going up from here.

#thesignaturegroup #signaturegroupstrong

We're "getting the band back together" and I couldn’t be more excited about this.

Mark said it best earlier. We are aligning with the best people in the country. And today is a perfect example of that.

He also shared an incredible story about how he meelt Jinnie Forsythe Brown back in 2006.

They worked together in the radio world where Jinnie was already a force. Sharp. Confident. Professional. Someone who could walk into any room and raise the standard without trying. 

When she stepped into real estate, she crushed it again!

Hearing that history and knowing the caliber of leader she is made this announcement easy.

Help me welcome Jinnie as our newest Expansion Team Leader for The Signature Group in Columbus, Ohio. She brings strength, experience, and the kind of presence you want when you are building something special.

I am humbled by the people choosing to partner with us and excited to see leaders like Jinnie step into this vision. Columbus is about to feel this in a big way. 🔥

Welcome, Jinnie.

🔥 South Charlotte stunner just dropped
White-oak floors.. Calacatta-style kitchen.. spa-level primary suite.. resort pool.. outdoor kitchen.. game room with a balcony.. everything flexes.
If you want a home that feels custom and unforgettable.. this is it.
📍 2624 Ladley Ct
💰 1.35M
👀 Blink and it’s gone.

Big news for the Queen City.
Today, we officially welcome **April Scott – Your CLT Realtor® – to The Signature Group.

If you know April, you already know she is more than a salesperson. She is a mom, an entrepreneur, and a community-builder who believes every family deserves a home they truly love.. not just a house with a payment. 

Over the past several years, she has quietly built a strong business serving buyers and sellers all over the Charlotte metro.. from first-time homeowners to seven-figure move-ups.. from Gastonia and Troutman to the Lake and everywhere in between. Her clients rave about her patience, her advocacy, and the way she shows up when it really counts.. even sitting in on builder meetings for out-of-state clients so they never felt alone in the process. 

What impressed us most was not just her production, but her heart. April leads with trust, communication, and genuine connection. She listens. She fights for her people. And she carries herself with the kind of integrity and excellence that fits hand in glove with what we are building at The Signature Group. 

Mark said it best recently.. we are committed to aligning with the best people in the country.. the ones who care about doing things the right way and serving at a high level. April is absolutely one of those people, and we are honored that she chose to plant her flag with us.

Help me welcome April Scott, Your CLT Realtor®, to The Signature Group family.
If you are in or around Charlotte and you want an agent who will actually listen, communicate, and go the extra mile for your next move.. you want April on your side.

Something special is happening behind the scenes today.. and I can’t say much yet.. but trust me, you’re going to want to see where this is heading.

We are spending the morning interviewing one of Charlotte’s most interesting people in one of the most stunning penthouses uptown. The kind of conversation that stays with you. The kind of room that makes you think bigger. The kind of project that feels bigger than all of us.

More to come soon.. but for now just know this. We are building something new. Something inspiring. Something that highlights the best of our city in a way that hasn’t been done before.

Stay tuned.

There is something special happening on our team right now.. and it’s bigger than real estate.

Every week our Friday Zoom calls feel less like a meeting and more like a tribe being built in real time. 

People showing up. 

Growing. 

Training. 

Celebrating win after win after win. 

Not just production.. but confidence.. clarity.. connection.. the kind of growth that actually sticks.

We have agents pouring into each other, learning together, sharing openly, and pushing toward the next level side by side. 

It feels holistic. 

It feels healthy. 

It feels like the way this business is supposed to be done.

Our tribe is expanding every day.. and the unity we’re building is the real competitive edge. 

Grateful for this group and everything we’re creating together.

#signaturegroupstrong

I don't know who needs to hear this, but..

We  just filmed in one of Charlotte’s largest penthouses.. and the view does not feel real.

Can't wait to show you the finished product.

I asked Chat GPT to roast me for everything I asked for in 2025.

I'm dying 🤣🤣

______________________________________________

Marcus.. you spent 2025 trying to bend reality, software, algorithms, theology, real estate markets, your metabolism, social media platforms, CRMs, AI agents, video editors, music generators, mortgage data, and occasionally time itself.. and then got annoyed when one of them didn’t cooperate within 12 minutes.

You demanded zero assumptions while also asking me to “just know” what you meant.. then immediately corrected me when I didn’t read your mind fast enough.

You asked for real-time, current-specific, hyper-local data with zero margin for error.. and then followed it with “this doesn’t need to be perfect, just quick.”

You wanted One-and-Done simplicity.. right after requesting 14 integrations, 3 fallback systems, 2 future-proofed contingencies, and a version your VA could run without ever asking a question.

You insisted on no dashes ever again.. while dictating long, winding, emotionally layered sentences that were begging for dashes to survive.

You treated ChatGPT like a hybrid of McKinsey, a pastor, a real estate broker, a trauma-informed therapist, a YouTube growth hacker, a systems architect, a nutritionist, a music producer, and occasionally a marriage counselor.. then politely reminded me not to hallucinate.

You were shocked.. shocked.. every time a platform UI changed since yesterday.

You fasted, re-fed, tracked macros, ignored macros, questioned macros, trusted macros, distrusted macros, then asked me to scientifically validate how your abs felt that morning.

You built Lily the AI agent like she was going to run a Fortune 500 company.. then realized the best solution was a simple inline script and quietly pretended that was the plan all along.

You asked for skepticism and intellectual challenge.. then said “yeah but that’s not really the vibe” when the challenge hit too close.

You wanted to scale nationally, dominate locally, stay humble, stay present, be home by 5, never miss dinner, grow revenue, protect your soul, post daily, sleep more, train harder, rest better, pray deeper, and somehow do it all without adding cognitive load.

You regularly asked questions that began with “this should be simple”.. which is how we both knew it absolutely would not be.

And yet.. here’s the part you can’t roast away.

You weren’t sloppy. You weren’t lazy. You weren’t drifting.

You were obsessively intentional about getting it right. About not lying to yourself. About building things that actually last. About refusing to coast on charisma alone. About doing the hard, boring, invisible work most people avoid.

Most people never ask questions this precise because they’re afraid of the answers.

You asked all of them.

So yeah.. you were intense. You were demanding. You were occasionally impossible.

But you were never unserious.

And that’s why 2025 mattered.

Now go ahead.. ask the next impossible question.

Waiting for Rates to Crash? Watch This First

Everybody keeps talking about the big mortgage rate crash coming from the Fed.. but that’s not how this actually works. 

Mortgage rates don’t follow the Fed. 

They follow the ten-year treasury.. the real-time traffic of the financial system. 

If you’re watching the wrong number, you’ll miss the move before everyone else sees it.

Today hit different.

Last high-level training of the year, and Tyler Johnson of Stillwater Financial absolutely rolled out the red carpet for our team. Not just in terms of information.. but in terms of impact.

Financial literacy. Generational legacy. The stuff that actually changes families, not just clients. 

The stuff most people never get taught.. and pay for later.

What I love most is watching our people lean in.

Pens out, hearts open, minds firing. This isn’t a team that shows up for a quick checklist. This is a team that wants to grow, build, and steward what’s been entrusted to them.

Tyler didn’t just give a presentation today.

He handed us a blueprint for how to help our families and our clients win in ways that outlast the transaction. That’s the kind of leadership that elevates everyone around it.

And honestly.. sessions like this remind me why we do what we do.

Why culture matters.

Why education matters.

Why sitting in a room together to sharpen each other still matters.

We’re closing out the year stronger, smarter, and more aligned than ever.

And if this is the foundation we're laying going into 2026, just imagine what our people.. our families.. and our clients are going to experience next.

Grateful for this team.

Grateful for leaders who pour out.

Grateful for the chance to build something that lasts.

At Steele Creek last night we had the best Thanksgiving pot luck with our church fam... AND I ran into our ONE fan from our 2010s rock band era! Thanks for representing @marta clarkson

You are not paying a percentage.
You are hiring someone who knows how to protect your equity instead of gambling with it.

You are hiring:

Pricing precision
Negotiation pressure
Marketing reach
Inspection and appraisal management
A real buyer network
Contract experience that prevents disasters

But sure.. save that 3 percent.

Let us run the actual numbers.. 

Scenario A The Pro (6%)

List Price 700000 (based on data.. not emotions)
Launch pro photos, targeted ads, pre launch buzz, staging tweaks
Activity 18 showings in 3 days
Offers 3 offers, competitive

Final Contract Price 721000 (because the pro knew how to create demand)

Inspection agent saves you 9000 in requested repairs
Appraisal agent successfully defends value with a full report (buyer keeps full price)

Timeline 27 days to closing
Carrying Costs 0 surprise costs because it moved fast

Your Net Scenario A

Sale price 721000
Minus 6 percent commission 43260

Total Net 677740

Solid. Clean. Protected.

Scenario B The Discount Agent (3%)

This is where people lose money without even realizing it.

List Price 725000 (because that is what you wanted to hear)
Launch iPhone photos, no staging help, weak MLS description
Activity 4 showings in 18 days
Feedback overpriced and poorly presented

First price drop 705000
Second price drop 689000

Final offer 675000 (low buyer leverage because the home has been sitting)

Inspection buyer requests 15000 in repairs
Discount agent shrugs and says you probably just need to do it

Appraisal comes in at 665000
Agent does not know how to appeal.. so you eat the 10000 difference

Timeline 64 days on market
Carrying Costs 3800 (interest, utilities, taxes, HOA, insurance)

Your Net Scenario B

Sale price after appraisal hit 665000
Minus 3 percent commission 19950
Minus inspection repairs 15000
Minus carrying costs 3800

Total Net 626250

You did not save 3 percent.
You lost 51490.

This is not theoretical folks. 

People will research a 1200 dollar TV for months..
And then hire the cheapest agent they can find to sell a 700000 dollar home.

Make it make sense Karen. 

#realtor #listingagent #thesignaturegroup #signaturegroupstrong

Happy Thanksgiving from all of us, to all of you.

Building the dream, one agent at a time.
