My Story
A Lifetime of Building, Reinventing, and Refusing to Slow Down. Built by Josh.
Josh Stein has never been the type to follow a straight line.
He builds. He experiments. He adapts.
And when something doesn’t go as planned?
He simply builds the next thing.
The journey started in the early days of the internet — 1999 — when Josh was designing, and building sites long before “digital marketing” became an industry. From performance powerboats to early web advertising, he learned fast, moved fast, and said yes to new opportunities even faster. That curiosity would end up shaping everything.
Then came Miami.
Nearly two decades of dominance.
Josh created one of the most powerful real estate websites in the city, ranking in Google’s top spots for 15 years and generating over $1 billion in closed sales. He wasn’t just selling — he was pioneering the strategies everyone else would later copy: SEO, content-driven real estate, lead-gen platforms, online funnels, data, automation.
But growth always leads to reinvention.
Josh moved to Mexico City almost a decade ago, and it changed everything. He built VIVE Polanco, tapped into a new luxury market, and established himself as the bridge between Mexico and Miami’s wealthiest buyers. He grew, adapted, innovated — again.
And yes, there were tough seasons.
Moments that tested him.
Challenges that would break most people.
But that’s not the headline.
The headline is that he never stopped.
Every setback sharpened him.
Every detour rerouted him toward something better.
Every lesson became fuel for the next idea.
Today, Josh is focused with more clarity than ever before.
He’s learned that saying no is a superpower, that time is the most valuable currency, and that one well-built company is worth more than ten half-built ones.
So now?
He’s doubling down on what he’s already built.
Scaling smart.
Protecting his time, his people, and his vision.
Leaning into AI, creativity, and the future of luxury real estate and digital strategy — the things he’s always done better than almost anyone.
This isn’t a story about mistakes.
It’s a story about momentum.
About refusing to quit.
About evolving ahead of the curve for 25+ years.
And about someone who still wakes up hungry to build the next thing.
The story isn’t finished.
It’s just getting interesting.
