Joel Beal

Joel Beal is our CEO and one of the owners. Joel leads the acquisitions, sales, and administrative functions for the company. He uses the lessons learned from his experience in technology, transportation, and construction to identify and implement best practices and continual improvement. Joel formed the company with William Roddy to improve Texas and Oklahoma communities, one home at a time.

Joel started in the trucking industry from a small town in Iowa as an independent truck driver, then moved into the management training program for a major trucking company after graduating Iowa Western College. He worked at locations across the United States and rolled out one of the first telematics technology implementations. This saved millions of dollars and dramatically improved safety for this tanker fleet, proving the practical use of this technology that is now ubiquitous in the trucking industry as well as passenger cars. From there, Joel started with this groundbreaking technology vendor as one of the first employees. He created, tested, and implemented technology into the trucking industry which includes the first civilian rollout of GPS technology. After a successful acquisition in 2008, Joel left to form a technology consultant service.

Joel acquired his first rental property in 1992, before he had a house. Constantly traveling and moving, he learned from two mentors who were creating “turn key rentals” before anyone created that phrase. He bought one more rental as soon as he saved enough from rental income to make another down payment. After leaving full time employment in 2008, he became a TREC licensed agent and entered real estate investing full time. He joined Homvestors of America in 2012 as a franchisee to learn marketing, systems, and procedures. In 2018, he formed GBOH, Inc. with William Roddy. In 2020, they licensed the WeBuyHouses.com brand to take advantage of a national brand and network.

Joel is an owner of GBOH, Inc. and Rockwell Technology Inc. He is a minority owner of a forex trading advisory service. He is a Presidential appointee to the United States Selective Service System board, a volunteer instructor with Texas Parks and Wildlife, and has held numerous leadership positions in the United States Coast Guard Auxiliary.
