Trace Johnson is a co-founder of Team Johnson, alongside his husband and business partner, Kristofer Kampmeyer, and a lifelong real estate professional rooted in the Mahoning Valley. Before entering sales, Trace built a strong foundation in service and communication through seven years at a Canfield-based business, where he learned how to connect authentically with people from all walks of life.
His formal real estate career began in 2015 at Welcome Realty/Houston Appraisals, where he served as a direct assistant to the broker and gained hands-on experience in valuation and operations. He later spent nearly four years as an Inside Sales Agent for a top-producing RE/MAX team, developing high-level communication, relationship-building, and negotiation skills—often converting conversations into successful closings without ever meeting clients face to face.
Today, Trace proudly works with eXp Realty, a brokerage he values for its innovation, collaborative culture, and commitment to empowering agents. Tech-savvy and forward-thinking, he appreciates an environment that rewards professionalism, individuality, and continuous growth.
Known for his straightforward approach and strong advocacy, Trace represents clients with honesty, consistency, and precision at every stage of the transaction. A proud Youngstown West Sider, he has lived throughout Mahoning, Trumbull, and Columbiana Counties and brings deep local knowledge and pride to his work. Real estate isn’t just his career—it’s a lifelong passion built on trust, preparation, and showing up the same way every time.
