Irving N. Kim & Jose Aranda Become the First Team to Reach Their 2026 CAP at BIG Realty
Every year in real estate begins with goals.
New opportunities. New clients. New challenges. New expectations.
But long before results appear publicly, success is usually being built quietly through discipline, preparation, consistency, and teamwork behind the scenes.
This month, BIG Realty proudly celebrated a major milestone as Irving N. Kim and Jose Aranda of The Maltese Group officially became the first team at BIG Realty to reach their 2026 CAP milestone.
The achievement represents much more than production numbers. It reflects the daily commitment required to build momentum early in the year and maintain it through consistency, communication, and trust within both their team and their clients.
In a competitive market, reaching a cap this early says something important.
It speaks to preparation.
It speaks to discipline.
And it speaks to the power of teamwork.
From client relationships and negotiations to long hours and strategic planning, milestones like this are never accomplished overnight. They are built through repeated effort, strong systems, and the ability to continue showing up with focus every single day.
For Irving N. Kim and Jose Aranda, this accomplishment also represents leadership within the BIG Realty family. By becoming the first team to cap in 2026, they are helping set the tone for the entire herd early in the year and showing what is possible through consistency and collaboration.
Inside BIG Realty, moments like these matter because they inspire others around them. Success has a ripple effect. When one team reaches new levels, it motivates others to continue growing, learning, and pushing toward their own goals.
The energy surrounding this milestone was not only about recognition, but also appreciation for the work ethic, professionalism, and team culture that helped make it possible.
At BIG Realty, we believe great teams are built through trust, shared vision, and the willingness to support one another through every stage of growth. The Maltese Group continues to embody those values while helping clients navigate important moments in their lives with confidence and care.
Congratulations once again to Irving N. Kim and Jose Aranda on becoming the first team at BIG Realty to reach their 2026 CAP milestone.
Your consistency, discipline, and teamwork continue to raise the standard and inspire the entire BIG Realty community.
