Brandon Gilliam, REALTOR® serving Maineville, Ohio

Your local contact

Hi, I'm Brandon.

I'm Brandon Gilliam (most people call me BG), a REALTOR® with Real Link Real Estate. I grew up in South Carolina and have lived in Greater Cincinnati since 2008, long enough to know the neighborhoods, the market, and the back roads between them.

My road to real estate wasn't the usual one. I spent 17 years on staff at Rivers Crossing Church, walking with people through all kinds of life changes, and along the way I built and ran an e-commerce business, which is where I learned to negotiate and to sweat the details. Both show up in how I help people buy and sell homes today.

Whether you're moving across the country or across town, there's a lot to figure out at once. I do the legwork with you: drives through neighborhoods on your shortlist, school district checks by exact address, introductions to lenders and inspectors I trust, and live video walk-throughs if you can't be here in person.

Off the clock, you'll find me on a golf course, at Creekside Cigar Co. in Maineville (a lounge I co-founded), or at home with my wife and our two kids.

  • Neighborhood and commute scouting
  • School district check on every address
  • Local lender, inspector and contractor intros
  • Live video tours when you can't be here
