You may know him as the refreshingly honest one on the popular Bravo TV series, 'Million Dollar Listing Los Angeles'. Or the guy who wears slippers to important business meetings. Or the one whose grandmother serves as the oracle of wisdom on the high-stakes reality show. Whichever it is, Josh Flagg no doubt supplies heart, humor and eccentricity to the real estate docu-series -- even if he does seem a bit over it all at times. Though he may seem like a dichotomy -- an old soul with boyish charm -- the 27-year-old Flagg is essentially dominating a man's game, playing real-life Monopoly, buying and selling the Boardwalk's and Park Place's of L.A.'s most prestigious neighborhoods. In a recent turn of success, Flagg's residential real estate sales eclipsed $250 million in just over one calendar year -- a figure no doubt bolstered by his presence on the show. I caught up with Flagg by phone as he stood outside his Beverly Hills office (wearing his trademark slippers, of course), as he offered insights into the real estate game and a peek at what's to come when the show returns.
