Shandice Banks
KW Military Community Leader
Shandice been in real estate for 10 years, previously running George Laffton’s team in
the Gilbert, AZ market. She grew that team from 30 agents to over 200 agents across
multiple states by providing a value-based offering, tailoring team services to the needs
of her agents. At the time of sale, this team was closing in excess of 3,500 transactions
annually.
Prior to entering the real estate industry, Shandice served in the United States Army
where she ran Special Ops with large teams overseas in Iraq and Kuwait. Her specialties
included engaging with locals, infiltrating community spaces, and assimilating while
becoming part of the local area. As a second generation military vet, who also saw
active combat, she truly represents our KW Military community members.
While serving she also earned her Masters Degree in Professional Psychology Support
and Therapy. During this program she developed the university’s New Hire Development
Program creating a 60 day training and onboarding program for all new hires to the
university, as well as developed 13 mentors to assist in the development of new hires.
This program ended up decreasing overall turnover rate from 85.7% down to 20% within
1 year of employment.
