Patrick Hiban, also known as Pat Hiban (born in 1965), is the founder and former Chairman of Rebus University[1] and is the former host and founder of real estate podcast Real Estate Rockstars with Pat Hiban,[2] which has featured guests including Robert Kiyosaki[3] and Shark Tank's Barbara Corcoran.[4]

Hiban is a former real estate agent out of the Baltimore MD area, and was the owner of the Pat Hiban Group[5] with Keller Williams. As a billion-dollar agent, Hiban was awarded #1 REMAX Agent by gross commissions in the world in 2004[6] and #1 Keller Williams Realty Agent in units sold nationwide 2006.[7] He was named a New York Times and USA Today best selling author,[8] and has been quoted in Time Magazine,[9] the Washington Post,[10] the Baltimore Sun,[11] and various other real estate publications.

Hiban is also one of the founders of GoBundance,[12] an adventure company for "healthy, wealthy, generous individuals who choose to lead epic lives".[13] Notable members of GoBundance include fellow founders David Osborn[14] and Tim Rhode.[15]

Early life and education[edit]

Hiban and his four siblings grew up in Howard County, Maryland.[16] His mother, Ann,[17] was a schoolteacher.[18] In his own words, Hiban came from "fairly humble beginnings."[19] He didn't begin speaking until the age of 5, and was diagnosed with a learning disability as a child.[20] Hiban's parents divorced when he was 12.[18] According to Hiban, as a child he ostensibly didn't possess any "special talents" or "strong interest in doing anything particular."[18] Hiban graduated from Wilde Lake High School in 1983.[16] In 1987, he earned his sociology degree from Frostburg State University, graduating with a GPA of 2.6.[20]

In the summer before his senior year of college, Hiban first had a "realization that [he] had a skill" when he got a new job distributing coupons for a timeshare company in Ocean City, Maryland.[21] In his first day on the job, Hiban made more money in commissions than he typically made in an entire week at his previous job, where he worked as a meat slicer at a local deli.[21] Hiban views this experience as a defining moment that put him on a path toward entrepreneurship.[21]
