John Rogers REALTOR®

Sit down with realtor John Rogers and ask him about the biggest influence on his success in the Vernon business community and chances are he’ll tell you a story about his late uncle, Ted Rogers. While all of Canada is impressed by the fiery patriarch of Rogers Communications, the man behind one of the world’s highest quality wireless and cable networks, and the founder of one of Canada’s largest integrated media companies, John is perhaps most indebted to him as a role model. “I look at my uncle and realize the word ‘failure’ is not in my family’s vocabulary. It is not an option. You do something and you do it well, no matter what.” With such inspiration, John made some amazing things happen in his life. At age 18, while his friends were taking road trips to Florida, this disciplined teen worked, saved money and bought his first investment property. Ten years later, through more hard work and discipline, he owned five rental properties. When he teamed up with his twin brother in a successful real estate partnership, the two were at the top of their game, reaching their clients’ goals and achieving success time after time.
