The Faces Behind 10% Group

Jordan Budd

Owner/Team Lead

Team Vision:

 

I’m Jordan Budd, and I founded the 10% Group with a simple yet powerful vision: to build a real estate company that does more than just succeed financially. We’re a small, dedicated team that buys, sells, and owns both residential and commercial properties. But at the heart of what we do is a commitment to making a real impact.

 

From every dollar we earn, we set aside 10% into what we call the 10% Fund. That fund is our way of giving back — channeling a portion of our success directly into causes and communities that need it most. We believe that by doing good, we can create something larger than ourselves.

 

So, welcome. We’re here to make a difference in real estate and beyond, and we’re glad to have you with us on this journey.

Keith Warren

Acquisitions Manager

I’m a young, driven real estate professional with a deep passion for helping people and making a positive impact in my community. I specialize in finding real solutions for homeowners facing tough situations – no problem is too big or too small.

I take pride in being honest, dependable, and creative when it comes to helping others move forward. With faith as my foundation, I work hard every day to serve others and honor God through my actions. Whether it’s through real estate or personal connection, my mission is to help people, build relationships, and create opportunities that change lives.
