Howard Flaschen: Broker Who Puts People Before Property

Meet Howard Flaschen: Broker Who Puts People Before Property | Real Estate Excellence Podcast
As the host of the Real Estate Excellence Podcast, I’ve had the honor of interviewing some of the top professionals in the industry—but Howard Flaschen, owner and broker of Round Table Realty, has long been someone I truly admire. Known throughout St. Johns and Duval County for his unwavering commitment to his agents and clients, Howard stands out not just as a broker, but as a mentor, educator, and leader in the truest sense.
Why Howard Flaschen Stands Out in Northeast Florida
Howard’s brokerage, Round Table Realty, operates under a simple but powerful motto: “People Before Property.” That philosophy isn’t just a slogan—it’s embedded into every decision he makes as a leader. Round Table Realty has become a go-to firm for agents who want more than just a desk and a logo. They want guidance, support, and a broker who’s always out in front.
He consistently invests in his own education to stay current with industry trends and regulations, ensuring that the training and insights he delivers to his agents are relevant and high-level. In an industry that often focuses on quick wins, Howard plays the long game—building careers, reputations, and a brokerage culture rooted in integrity.

Tracy’s Takeaway as Host
I’ve respected Howard for years, but sitting down with him for Episode 21 of the Real Estate Excellence Podcast only deepened that respect. His depth of knowledge, calm presence, and unwavering commitment to doing things the right way are everything our industry needs more of. It’s rare to find someone so respected by both agents and peers, but Howard has earned that trust over and over again.
Even though this episode was recorded four years ago, everything Howard shared still rings true. That’s the mark of timeless leadership.
