Erik Hatch isn’t just selling homes – he’s building leaders and creating communities that thrive. Based in Fargo, North Dakota (where the winters are tough, but the people are tougher), Erik has crafted a career around leading leaders and fostering connection.
​
Sure, his real estate empire, Hatch Brokered by Real, has sold over 7,000 homes and consistently dominates the North Dakota market – but Erik’s real passion is in the communities he’s built and nurtured.
​
At the heart of his work are three powerful spaces:
-
Hatch Mastermind – A space where real estate team leaders sharpen their skills, challenge the status quo, and grow together.
-
Redefined Community – A brotherhood for men who are privileged with pressure. It's where growing and bro’ing happen side by side – because real strength comes from vulnerability and accountability.
-
Leader’s Sandbox – Erik’s local brainchild, bringing together small business leaders and owners to collaborate, connect, and level up.
​
When he’s not cultivating these thriving hubs, Erik is shaping the future of real estate through Hatch Coaching, where he mentors and coaches the top 1% of agents and leaders in the industry. His approach is simple – servant leadership mixed with a dash of humor and a whole lot of authenticity.
​
But wait, there’s more! Erik’s philanthropic efforts have raised over $7 million globally to fight poverty and human trafficking, and locally he’s helped generate over $1 million to combat homelessness and uplift vulnerable kids in Fargo.
He’s also a two-time TED Talk speaker, author of “Play for the Person Next to You” and “The Perfect Real Estate Agent Blueprint”, and a frequent keynote for giants like Microsoft and The United Way.
​
At the end of the day, Erik is just a guy who loves building better humans, better businesses, and better communities. He lives in Fargo with his wife Emily and their two amazing kids, Finley and Simon – leading by example and proving that leadership isn’t just a job, it’s a lifestyle.
