The Middleton Team started when Pete moved to San Diego in 1992. He worked for RE/MAX for almost a decade and quickly became the number one agent in the company. Always looking for a new challenge, Middleton opened a Keller Williams in La Jolla in 2006. Following in his fathers footsteps and proudly bringing the family name out west, he later founded the luxury boutique brokerage, Middleton Associates Real Estate.Middleton Associates quickly became one of the top five La Jolla brokerages since opening in 2010. In 2013, the brokerage completed 188 transactions totaling over $140 million in sales. In 2014, Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage acquired the assets of Middleton Associates and welcomed Middletons agents into their brokerage. The merging of these two powerhouse brokerages had a significant impact on La Jollas elite real estate market.Pete led the Middleton Team at Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage, a group of handpicked elite agents all trained to provide excellent service to their clients. In September of 2019, Middleton announced a major milestone in his career. He and his team are now part of a growing number of real estate agents switching to eXp Realty, an agent - owned brokerage. eXp stands out as one of the first and largest cloud-based brokerages and has expanded globally.
