Rich Tomasini
Rich's career began in 1999 when he left college and joined his father’s appraisal business in southern Florida. He worked as an appraiser by day and flipped properties by night. From ages 22-28, he flipped over $23 million of real estate and gained extensive knowledge about construction, valuation, and negotiation.
He left Florida in 2005 and moved to the Lake Norman area. Rich was up for a new challenge in a new place and decided to utilize the real estate knowledge he had acquired and apply it to sales. He was hit fast and hard with not only a whole new real estate market to learn but the beginning of an economic downturn that rocked the industry. Not the best time to be a new agent in a new town, but he persevered and became an uncertified short-sale expert, knocking out over 100 short sales from 2007-2010.
Rich has been a part of large, national-scale brokerages and small, locally-owned offices; from REMAX to LKN Realty, he grew his sales and client base year after year. It wasn’t until joining eXp Realty in late 2017, however, that he found a company that complimented his passion for teaching others how to build successful real estate careers without the limitations imposed by more traditional business models. His career has grown in ways he never anticipated, and he hasn’t looked back since.
Rich currently has over 2,300 members in his eXp organization, ranking him among the top 30 in the world

Jonathon Zetterholm
Jonathon, the Chief Stewarding Officer and Owner of 2020 Builders, has been knee-deep in the construction and real estate industries since his early days. He got his start working in his father's development and construction business during middle school and high school, where he "dug in" (often quite literally with shovel in-hand) and built a solid foundation for his future.
After earning his General Contractor's license immediately after high school, Jonathon returned to his father's company as a project manager. There, he gained hands-on experience in everything from custom single-family homes to commercial multi-family projects. The housing market crash taught him valuable lessons, and when he re-entered the construction world in 2014, he brought a new strategic approach with him.
Jonathon discovered his (somewhat nerdy) passion for efficiency through automation, systems, processes, and SOPs in 2016. In 2018, he began applying these principles to real estate and construction, developing a Home Building System that replaced the old "GC in a truck" model with a more effective and efficient approach.
This drive to make a greater impact led Jonathon to officially establish 2020 Builders in January 2020. Passionate about optimizing limited resources, Jonathon is dedicated to fulfilling 2020 Builders' purpose statement: To steward our God-given resources wisely by building high-quality, attainable housing, and creating profitable, enjoyable work opportunities by cultivating trusting relationships.
