<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[What if the key to a smoother real estate transaction is treating the agent on the other side like they\'re your client?

In this episode of Real Estate Insiders Unfiltered, James Dwiggins and Keith Robinson sit down with Cari McGee, team leader of the Cari McGee Team at RE/MAX Northwest to explore the systems, relationships, and mindset behind more than 650 home sales and 270-plus five-star reviews.

Cari explains that a successful real estate transaction depends on more than how well you serve your buyer or seller. The other agent can make or break the deal, which means building respect and cooperation across the transaction isn\'t just professional courtesy, it\'s part of representing your client\'s best interests.

They discuss:
Why the other agent may be your most important client during a real estate transaction
How Cari built a system that generates roughly 70% of her business from referrals
The simple process behind more than 270 five-star reviews
How her Rockstar Rewards program keeps \"forever clients\" connected
Why expectation-setting can help agents protect their time without sacrificing service

Cari also breaks down the economics behind her client rewards strategy. Since launching the program, she estimates spending roughly $85,000 while attributing approximately $1.3 million in commissions to the system. Her events and giveaways aren\'t necessarily elaborate, either; from Pop-Tart-making classes and pumpkin patches to pies and small monthly giveaways. The power comes from consistent, meaningful contact with the people already in her sphere.

If you want to build stronger relationships, generate more referrals, and create a better real estate transaction for everyone involved, this episode offers a practical blueprint you can start using immediately.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[Why are real estate professionals often great at making money but terrible at investing it?
Russ Morgan, founder of Wealth Without Wall Street, joins James Dwiggins and Keith Robinson to challenge how agents, brokers, and entrepreneurs think about investing, retirement, and financial freedom.

Russ argues that the same optimism and confidence that help real estate professionals succeed in business can work against them as investors. Instead of approaching every opportunity believing they can make it work, he says successful investors need to become skeptics, establish a clear buy box, and learn how to verify an investment before committing their money.

They discuss:
Why entrepreneurs can make terrible investors
The debate over 401(k)s and traditional retirement planning
How to define financial freedom through passive income
Why every investor needs a personal investment buy box
How financial systems can turn active income into passive income

Russ also shares why he publicly reports his own passive income, including investments that haven\'t worked, and how that transparency helped his passive income grow from roughly $2,400 per month to as much as $50,000 per month.

If you\'re earning good money in real estate but aren\'t building lasting financial freedom, this episode will challenge how you\'re putting that money to work.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[How do you build a $6 billion real estate business without making every relationship about the next transaction?

Louise Phillips Forbes has spent more than 35 years answering that question. After making just $8,400 during her first year in real estate, she went on to close more than $6 billion by building a business around service, relationships, generosity, and genuine human connection.

In this episode of Real Estate Insiders Unfiltered, James Dwiggins and Keith Robinson talk with Louise about why relationships over transactions isn\'t simply a nice philosophy. It\'s been the foundation of her entire career.

They discuss:
How Louise went from $8,400 her first year to more than $6 billion in sales
Why agents should view other agents as colleagues, not competitors
How generosity creates opportunity without constantly asking for business
Why relationships and experience matter even more as real estate becomes more transparent
The simple relationship-building habit agents can start using today

Louise also explains why she doesn\'t approach her sphere as a database of potential transactions. Her clients have become friends, introduced her to her husband, and even made her a godmother 15 times. Her business became part of her life because she focused first on being useful to the people around her.

If you\'re tired of chasing leads and transactions, this conversation is a reminder that the most powerful real estate strategy may still be the simplest: build relationships first, and let the business follow.

<description ><![CDATA[How do you build a $6 billion real estate business without making every relationship about the next transaction?

Louise Phillips Forbes has spent more than 35 years answering that question. After making just $8,400 during her first year in real estate, she went on to close more than $6 billion by building a business around service, relationships, generosity, and genuine human connection.

In this episode of Real Estate Insiders Unfiltered, James Dwiggins and Keith Robinson talk with Louise about why relationships over transactions isn\'t simply a nice philosophy. It\'s been the foundation of her entire career.

They discuss:
How Louise went from $8,400 her first year to more than $6 billion in sales
Why agents should view other agents as colleagues, not competitors
How generosity creates opportunity without constantly asking for business
Why relationships and experience matter even more as real estate becomes more transparent
The simple relationship-building habit agents can start using today

Louise also explains why she doesn\'t approach her sphere as a database of potential transactions. Her clients have become friends, introduced her to her husband, and even made her a godmother 15 times. Her business became part of her life because she focused first on being useful to the people around her.

If you\'re tired of chasing leads and transactions, this conversation is a reminder that the most powerful real estate strategy may still be the simplest: build relationships first, and let the business follow.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[Does America actually have a housing shortage, or has the real estate industry been looking at the wrong numbers?

In this episode of Real Estate Insiders Unfiltered, James Dwiggins and Keith Robinson sit down with Ryan McKeveny, Managing Director at Zelman & Associates, to examine the data behind the supposed housing shortage and what changing demographics could mean for the future of real estate.

Ryan makes a provocative argument: while conventional wisdom says America faces a historic housing shortage, Zelman\'s research suggests the overall housing market is roughly balanced, with a modest undersupply of single-family homes and a modest oversupply of multifamily housing.

They discuss:
Why Zelman challenges the severe housing shortage narrative
How declining births and an aging population change future housing demand
Why immigration will become critical to U.S. population growth
How nearly 20% of new resale listings are connected to a death
Why agents may need to gain market share instead of waiting for a recovery

Ryan also explains why affordability remains a major problem even without a massive housing shortage. Mortgage rates, home prices, wage growth, and the lock-in effect continue to constrain transactions and there\'s no guarantee the market will suddenly bail agents out.

For real estate professionals, the takeaway is simple: understand where the population and housing market are actually heading, identify opportunities inside your sphere, and build a business capable of winning even if today\'s market doesn\'t dramatically improve.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[What if your best real estate referral system didn\'t require you to ask anyone for referrals?

In this episode of Real Estate Insiders Unfiltered, James Dwiggins and Keith Robinson sit down with Greg Roeder, Founder and Principal Broker of Selling Fort Collins with LIV Sotheby’s International Realty to break down the relationship-driven system that helped him grow from $15 million in solo sales volume in 2023 to $40 million in 2025.

Instead of chasing leads, Greg creates opportunities for genuine connection through events built around things he actually enjoys, from pickleball leagues to sauna and cold plunge gatherings. Those relationships are then reinforced through targeted content designed specifically for his dream clients.

They discuss:
The referral system behind Greg\'s rapid business growth
Why client events should start with what brings you joy
How to turn relationships into repeat and referral business
Greg\'s three M\'s for building a seven-figure real estate practice
Why consistent, niche content helps establish you as the agent of choice

Greg reveals that 100% of his business over the past three years has come from repeat clients, referrals, or people connected to previous clients. His approach isn\'t complicated, but it does require consistency.

If you\'re tired of constantly chasing your next lead, this episode offers a different way to build a real estate business around relationships, trust, and a real estate referral system designed for long-term growth.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[What does it actually mean to elevate the real estate industry?

In this episode of Real Estate Insiders Unfiltered, James Dwiggins sits down with Jason Haber, co-founder and president of the American Real Estate Association (ARA), for a candid conversation about challenging the status quo, creating stronger representation for agents, and where the organization goes from here.

Jason shares how the NAR Accountability Project eventually led to the creation of ARA, which has grown from roughly 10,000 to 30,000 members. He also discusses support from major real estate organizations, including RE/MAX and Compass International Holdings, and why ARA wants to complement (not destroy) the work being done by NAR.

They discuss:
Why the American Real Estate Association was created
What agents actually want from a trade association
ARA\'s plans for federal and state lobbying
Why competition could strengthen real estate advocacy
Jason\'s vision for elevating professional standards

Jason also explains why ARA isn\'t interested in becoming the \"policeman\" of real estate. Instead, he wants the organization to become a stronger voice for agents, improve education, encourage cooperation between brokerages, and help real estate professionals become more politically engaged.

If you\'ve been following the changes happening at NAR, the growth of ARA, or the larger conversation about who should represent real estate professionals, this episode offers a firsthand look at one organization\'s plan to help shape what comes next.

In this episode of Real Estate Insiders Unfiltered, James Dwiggins sits down with Jason Haber, co-founder and president of the American Real Estate Association (ARA), for a candid conversation about challenging the status quo, creating stronger representation for agents, and where the organization goes from here.

Jason shares how the NAR Accountability Project eventually led to the creation of ARA, which has grown from roughly 10,000 to 30,000 members. He also discusses support from major real estate organizations, including RE/MAX and Compass International Holdings, and why ARA wants to complement (not destroy) the work being done by NAR.

They discuss:
Why the American Real Estate Association was created
What agents actually want from a trade association
ARA\'s plans for federal and state lobbying
Why competition could strengthen real estate advocacy
Jason\'s vision for elevating professional standards

Jason also explains why ARA isn\'t interested in becoming the \"policeman\" of real estate. Instead, he wants the organization to become a stronger voice for agents, improve education, encourage cooperation between brokerages, and help real estate professionals become more politically engaged.

If you\'ve been following the changes happening at NAR, the growth of ARA, or the larger conversation about who should represent real estate professionals, this episode offers a firsthand look at one organization\'s plan to help shape what comes next.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[Human connection may become the most valuable competitive advantage real estate agents have in an AI-driven world.

In this episode of Real Estate Insiders Unfiltered, James Dwiggins sits down with human connection keynote speaker, author, and longtime real estate professional Barb Betts to discuss why human connection matters more as technology becomes capable of doing more of an agent’s work.

Barb explains how she built a seven-figure real estate business through relationships instead of ads and cold calls. She also shares her simple “5 by 5 Method” for intentionally staying connected and why agents need to build genuine relationships before they start asking for referrals.

They discuss:
Why AI should make agents more human, not less
Barb’s “5 by 5 Method” for building relationships
Why agents should stop chasing referrals
How authenticity creates confidence
Using AI to create more time for human connection

As AI gives every agent access to similar tools, information, and technology, human connection becomes the differentiator competitors can’t copy.

If you want to use AI to grow your business without automating away the relationships that make real estate work, this episode is for you.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[Everyone is talking about tariffs.

But according to Homes.com Chief Residential Economist Brad Case, they\'re not the biggest reason housing costs continue to rise.

In this episode of Real Estate Insiders Unfiltered, James Dwiggins sits down with Brad Case for a wide-ranging conversation about the U.S. economy, mortgage rates, inflation, immigration policy, tariffs, consumer confidence, and what all of it means for real estate professionals and homebuyers.

Brad explains why uncertainty, not just policy, is shaping today\'s market, why mortgage rates are likely to stay near current levels, and why life events continue to drive home sales more than interest rates alone. He also shares why immigration policy may be having a larger impact on housing affordability than tariffs by affecting the labor force that builds America\'s homes.

The conversation also dives into:
Why mortgage rates may not fall anytime soon
Whether tariffs are really driving housing prices
How immigration affects construction costs
The housing market outlook for 2026 and 2027
How geopolitical events influence real estate

If you\'ve been trying to make sense of today\'s housing market, this episode provides one of the clearest economic breakdowns you\'ll hear from one of the industry\'s leading economists.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[What if one of the country\'s top real estate agents told you he doesn\'t use a CRM?

That\'s exactly what Jonathan Stein says.

In this episode of Real Estate Insiders Unfiltered, James Dwiggins sits down with Jonathan Stein of Douglas Elliman to unpack the philosophy that\'s helped him build one of New York City\'s top real estate businesses including recently representing a $27 million sale.

Jonathan\'s story is anything but conventional. Before becoming a realtor, he worked in private equity, spent a year touring North America as a rock band\'s tour manager, waited tables while building his business, and slowly earned the trust of clients through authentic relationships instead of automated follow-up systems.

Throughout the conversation, Jonathan explains why he still doesn\'t rely on a CRM to maintain client relationships, how genuine curiosity creates stronger referrals than scripted follow-up campaigns, and why being remembered as \"the nicest guy in the business\" has been more valuable than any marketing strategy.

The conversation also explores:
Why Jonathan doesn\'t use a CRM
Building relationships instead of chasing transactions
The reality of breaking into New York luxury real estate
Private listings in the luxury market
Why happiness matters more than being right

If you\'re looking for a reminder that relationships still outperform technology, this episode is packed with practical wisdom from someone who\'s built an elite business by simply treating people well.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[Nine out of ten homebuyers want a move-in-ready home.
So why are so many sellers still putting properties on the market without making the improvements that buyers are looking for?

In this episode of Real Estate Insiders Unfiltered, James Dwiggins sits down with Austin Lane, CEO of Notable, to discuss one of the biggest missed opportunities in residential real estate: helping sellers prepare their homes before they ever hit the MLS.

Austin explains why relatively small investments in paint, flooring, landscaping, staging, and cosmetic updates can significantly improve a home\'s appeal, helping properties sell faster while often producing a much stronger financial outcome for the seller. The conversation also explores why financing these improvements has become easier than many agents realize and why pre-listing preparation should be part of every listing consultation.

The discussion also covers:
Why 9 out of 10 buyers prefer move-in-ready homes
The biggest pre-listing mistakes sellers make
How home preparation affects time on market
Why staging still matters
How agents can better communicate value

If you\'re an agent looking to create more value for your clients or a homeowner preparing to sell. This episode provides practical strategies that can lead to stronger offers, faster sales, and better overall outcomes.

According to Ricardo Rodriguez, it has nothing to do with the price of the home.

In this episode of Real Estate Insiders Unfiltered, James Dwiggins sits down with Ricardo Rodriguez, Principal of Ricardo Rodriguez & Associates at Coldwell Banker, one of only a handful of Global Luxury Ambassadors, and leader of the #1 large real estate team in New England.

Ricardo shares his remarkable journey of immigrating to the United States at 21 with only $25, building one of the country\'s premier luxury real estate businesses, and redefining what luxury service truly means. Instead of focusing on expensive homes, he explains why the luxury mindset is about delivering the same exceptional client experience whether you\'re helping someone rent their first apartment or purchase a $50 million estate.

The conversation also explores:
Why luxury is about experience not price
How Ricardo built one of America\'s top luxury teams
The role of private listings in today\'s market
Why MLS transparency still matters
The future of AI and real estate marketing

Whether you\'re an experienced luxury agent or just starting your real estate career, this episode is packed with practical advice on building a premium client experience that earns trust, referrals, and long-term success.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[Today\'s real estate market isn\'t impossible, but it does require a different approach.

In this episode of Real Estate Insiders Unfiltered, James Dwiggins sits down with Mike Bernier, CEO of Realty Group with LPT Realty, coach, educator, and one of Minnesota\'s most respected brokerage leaders, to discuss why so many listings are failing to sell in today\'s market.

Instead of blaming interest rates or inventory, Mike explains that many agents are skipping the most important conversations with sellers before the home ever hits the market. From pricing expectations and seller motivation to property preparation and fiduciary responsibility, he shares practical strategies agents can implement immediately to improve their results.

The conversation also tackles one of real estate\'s biggest industry debates: private listings and consumer transparency, while exploring leadership, coaching, recruiting, and why consistency always outperforms chasing the latest marketing trend.

You\'ll learn:
Why listings sit on the market
How to uncover a seller\'s true motivation
Better ways to discuss pricing with homeowners
Why \"testing the market\" often backfires
The importance of fiduciary duty and transparency

If you\'re looking for practical advice to help more listings sell, improve your conversations with clients, and build a stronger business, this episode is packed with actionable insights from someone who\'s coached thousands of agents through changing markets.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[Private listings have become one of the hottest and most divisive topics in real estate.

In this episode of Real Estate Insiders Unfiltered, James Dwiggins welcomes Matt Laricy, the #1 agent in Chicago by both transaction sides and sales volume, to discuss why he believes private listings and hidden inventory ultimately work against the very consumers they\'re supposed to serve. As a fourth-generation Realtor with decades of family history in the business, Matt provides historical perspective on how the industry evolved from office-exclusive inventory to today\'s MLS and why he believes some companies are trying to turn back the clock.

The discussion also explores the legal battle surrounding Zillow, Compass, and MRED, the importance of transparency in real estate, and why today\'s agents should focus less on protecting inventory and more on protecting consumer trust.

You\'ll learn:
Why Matt believes private listings hurt consumers
Why more exposure almost always benefits sellers
The Zillow vs. Compass and MRED controversy
Why transparency reduces risk instead of creating it
How top agents actually win listings

Whether you\'re an agent, broker, or homeowner, this episode offers an honest look at one of the biggest debates shaping the future of residential real estate and why consumer trust should remain at the center of every decision.

<description ><![CDATA[Private listings have become one of the hottest and most divisive topics in real estate.

In this episode of Real Estate Insiders Unfiltered, James Dwiggins welcomes Matt Laricy, the #1 agent in Chicago by both transaction sides and sales volume, to discuss why he believes private listings and hidden inventory ultimately work against the very consumers they\'re supposed to serve. As a fourth-generation Realtor with decades of family history in the business, Matt provides historical perspective on how the industry evolved from office-exclusive inventory to today\'s MLS and why he believes some companies are trying to turn back the clock.

The discussion also explores the legal battle surrounding Zillow, Compass, and MRED, the importance of transparency in real estate, and why today\'s agents should focus less on protecting inventory and more on protecting consumer trust.

You\'ll learn:
Why Matt believes private listings hurt consumers
Why more exposure almost always benefits sellers
The Zillow vs. Compass and MRED controversy
Why transparency reduces risk instead of creating it
How top agents actually win listings

Whether you\'re an agent, broker, or homeowner, this episode offers an honest look at one of the biggest debates shaping the future of residential real estate and why consumer trust should remain at the center of every decision.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[Every agent wants more referrals. Jeff Lobb believes that\'s the wrong goal.
In this episode of Real Estate Insiders Unfiltered, James Dwiggins sits down with longtime industry leader, speaker, and SparkTank Media founder Jeff Lobb to discuss why relying solely on referrals creates an unpredictable business and what agents should build instead.

Jeff introduces his concept of the \"Seven Streams of People,\" explaining why successful agents consistently invest in multiple communities, relationships, and networks instead of hoping their phone rings. From local organizations and sports teams to business groups and community involvement, he shares a practical framework for creating a business that generates opportunities year after year.

The conversation also dives into some of the industry\'s biggest topics, including AI search, Google\'s changing search landscape, Bright MLS\'s controversial listing policy changes, consumer transparency, and why real estate professionals need to stop thinking like marketers and start thinking like trusted advisors.

You\'ll learn:
Why referrals alone aren\'t enough to sustain growth
The \"Seven Streams of People\" strategy
The biggest mistake brokerages make with customer relationships
How to create lifelong clients instead of one-time transactions
Why consistency still beats every marketing hack

If you\'re ready to stop waiting for business and start creating it, this episode offers a practical roadmap from someone who\'s spent decades helping agents grow.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[Why do some luxury renovation projects sell instantly while others sit on the market?

According to Claire and Sam O\'Connor, it has very little to do with expensive finishes and everything to do with creating emotion.

In this episode of Real Estate Insiders Unfiltered, Keith Robinson sits down with the sisters behind O\'Connor Estates to discuss how they\'ve built one of Los Angeles\' fastest-growing luxury development businesses. From sourcing undervalued properties to designing homes that buyers can\'t stop thinking about, they reveal the strategy that\'s helped them consistently set record prices in some of LA\'s most competitive neighborhoods.

The conversation also covers:
How to identify great renovation opportunities
Why generic flips rarely command premium prices
What agents can learn from developers
The importance of betting on yourself
The biggest mistakes agents make when marketing homes

One of the most valuable takeaways is that buyers aren\'t just purchasing square footage, they\'re buying a feeling. The agents and developers who understand how to create that emotional connection are the ones who consistently outperform the market.

Whether you\'re an agent, investor, or aspiring developer, this episode is packed with practical insights on creating more value in every transaction.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[Everyone in real estate wants the market to get easier. David Childers has a different perspective.

As President of Keeping Current Matters, David believes the difficult markets are the ones that separate great agents from everyone else. In this episode of Real Estate Insiders Unfiltered, he joins Keith Robinson to explain why today\'s challenges create tomorrow\'s opportunities and how agents who embrace education instead of fear will build stronger businesses because of it.

The conversation begins with HousingWire\'s acquisition of Keeping Current Matters and what it means for agents who rely on trusted market data. From there, David shares leadership lessons learned from John Maxwell and Todd Duncan, the importance of defining reality as a leader, and why consistency beats intensity when building trust with consumers.

They also dive deep into the current housing market, including why listings are being pulled off the market, rising days on market, inventory trends, seller expectations, and the life events that continue to drive transactions despite higher mortgage rates. Throughout the episode, David explains how agents can become the trusted expert consumers are looking for not by predicting the future, but by helping clients understand what\'s happening today.

You\'ll learn:
Why hard markets create better real estate professionals
What the HousingWire and KCM partnership means for agents
Leadership lessons from John Maxwell and Todd Duncan
The three market metrics every Realtor should discuss weekly
How to become your market\'s trusted source of information

If you\'ve been waiting for the market to get easier, David has a different message: the agents who lean into difficult seasons are the ones who build businesses that last.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[Could your marketing actually be pushing future clients away?

According to 1000WATT co-founder Marc Davison, most Realtors are making the same mistake: they\'re creating marketing that only speaks to the 5% of consumers actively buying or selling today while completely ignoring the other 95%.

In this episode of Real Estate Insiders Unfiltered, Keith Robinson sits down with one of real estate\'s most respected branding experts to discuss why \"Just Listed\" and \"Just Sold\" posts rarely build lasting brands, why storytelling beats promotion, and how agents can create marketing that people actually remember.

Marc shares lessons from decades in advertising, entertainment, and real estate, explaining why the industry\'s obsession with self-promotion has crowded out meaningful brand building. He also reveals practical ways agents can make even the most ordinary listing memorable by shifting the focus from features to stories.

They also discuss:
The difference between promotion and branding
Why storytelling creates memorable agents
How to stand out without chasing social media trends
How great marketing creates emotional connection
Why authenticity isn\'t enough without strategy

Whether you\'re an individual agent, team leader, or brokerage owner, this conversation is a masterclass in building a brand people remember long after the transaction is over.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[Is MLS consolidation inevitable?

Bright MLS CEO Brian Donnellan thinks the industry absolutely needs more consolidation but he also believes a single national MLS would be one of the worst outcomes possible.

In this episode of Real Estate Insiders Unfiltered, Keith Robinson sits down with Brian for a candid conversation about the future of MLSs, brokerage consolidation, AI, data ownership, and why scale is becoming essential for every organization in real estate.

Brian explains why smaller MLSs will continue to face mounting pressure, how Bright MLS successfully merged nine separate organizations into one, and why today\'s challenges are different from the ones the industry faced a decade ago. He also clears up the headlines surrounding Bright MLS\'s partnership with Compass, explaining what the agreement actually does and what it doesn\'t.

They also discuss:
The real reason consolidation is accelerating
Lessons from merging nine MLS organizations
The Compass partnership beyond the headlines
Broker data ownership and REdistribute
The risks of too much industry change happening too quickly

One of the biggest takeaways is Brian\'s belief that organizations without scale will struggle to compete as technology advances. Whether you\'re leading an MLS, brokerage, or real estate team, understanding these forces will help you prepare for what\'s coming next.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[What\'s the one thing nearly every top Realtor in America has in common?

It isn\'t a secret CRM, a massive team, or a million-dollar marketing budget.

It\'s consistency.

After interviewing nearly 50 of the most successful real estate agents in the country, James Dwiggins and Keith Robinson step away from interviewing guests and become the guests themselves. Together, they break down the biggest patterns they\'ve seen across top producers, revealing the habits, mindsets, and business principles that consistently separate average agents from elite performers.

Throughout the conversation, they discuss why treating real estate like a true business matters, how consistency beats intensity every time, why your sphere of influence remains your greatest asset, and why AI is making human connection more valuable, not less.

They also explore:
The boring daily habits top agents never skip
Why consistency beats motivation
The many different paths to becoming a top producer
Why repeat and referral business still wins
Finding a niche that fits your personality

Whether you\'re brand new to real estate or you\'ve been selling homes for decades, this episode is a reminder that success rarely comes from chasing the next shiny object. It comes from doing the fundamentals exceptionally well day after day, year after year.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[Inman has been the leading news source for real estate professionals for decades.

So why is its new CEO trying to move beyond being a media company?

In this episode of Real Estate Insiders Unfiltered, Keith Robinson sits down with Tom Bohn, the newly appointed CEO of Inman, for an in-depth conversation about the future of journalism, artificial intelligence, and why he believes media alone is no longer enough.

Tom shares his vision for transforming Inman from a publication agents read into a platform they rely on every day. Instead of simply reporting the news, Inman is building AI-powered tools, data, education, and community designed to become an essential part of an agent\'s business.

The conversation also explores:
Why Inman is evolving beyond traditional media
Protecting editorial independence in a changing industry
Why specialization is becoming essential for agents
The biggest opportunities hidden inside today\'s industry disruption
What to expect from the next generation of Inman

One of the most compelling moments comes when Tom explains that technology doesn\'t replace great agents, it exposes average ones. The professionals who embrace AI to eliminate administrative work will have more time to focus on what consumers value most: trust, expertise, and relationships.

Whether you\'re an agent, broker, team leader, or simply curious about where the industry is headed, this conversation offers a thoughtful look at how technology, leadership, and journalism are all evolving together.

Tom shares his vision for transforming Inman from a publication agents read into a platform they rely on every day. Instead of simply reporting the news, Inman is building AI-powered tools, data, education, and community designed to become an essential part of an agent\'s business.

The conversation also explores:
Why Inman is evolving beyond traditional media
Protecting editorial independence in a changing industry
Why specialization is becoming essential for agents
The biggest opportunities hidden inside today\'s industry disruption
What to expect from the next generation of Inman

One of the most compelling moments comes when Tom explains that technology doesn\'t replace great agents, it exposes average ones. The professionals who embrace AI to eliminate administrative work will have more time to focus on what consumers value most: trust, expertise, and relationships.

Whether you\'re an agent, broker, team leader, or simply curious about where the industry is headed, this conversation offers a thoughtful look at how technology, leadership, and journalism are all evolving together.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[Most real estate negotiations don\'t fall apart because of price.

They fall apart because agents make the negotiation about themselves.

In this episode of Real Estate Insiders Unfiltered, James Dwiggins and Keith Robinson sit down with Lisa Lippman, the #1 broker at Brown Harris Stevens for 11 consecutive years, to unpack one of the most overlooked skills in real estate: negotiation.

Lisa explains why the best negotiators remove their own emotions from the process, keep clients focused on the end goal, and never let ego derail a transaction. It\'s a simple lesson—but one that separates average agents from elite professionals.

The conversation also explores:
The #1 negotiation mistake agents make
Why luxury real estate isn\'t nearly as glamorous as TV suggests
What Lisa learned working alongside Barbara Corcoran
Why first-time buyers remain some of her favorite clients
The daily habits that create long-term success

One of the most fascinating moments comes when Lisa shares that younger clients are now finding her through AI, not because AI can replace an agent, but because it recognizes the value of her experience and advice. As she puts it, clients tell her they chose her because she provides insights they couldn\'t get from AI alone.

Whether you\'re a new agent looking to improve your negotiation skills or a seasoned professional wanting to sharpen your approach, this episode is packed with practical advice you can use immediately.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[Are consumers getting the full picture when buying or selling a home?

In this episode of Real Estate Insiders Unfiltered, James Dwiggins and Keith Robinson sit down with Consumer Policy Center fellows Stephen Brobeck and Wendy Gilch for a deep dive into some of the most controversial issues facing real estate today. From buyer agent commissions and referral fees to private listings and brokerage consolidation, this conversation explores the data, research, and consumer concerns driving many of today\'s industry debates.

The discussion centers around three major Consumer Policy Center reports, including why commission rates have remained relatively stable after the NAR settlement, whether referral fee businesses create hidden costs for consumers, and how large brokerages are increasing their share of double-ended transactions in major markets across the country.

You\'ll learn:
Why commission rates may not have changed as much as expected
The consumer disclosure concerns surrounding referral fees
How private listings impact buyers and sellers
Why some states are considering new disclosure laws
How market concentration could reshape real estate

This episode isn\'t about taking sides. It\'s about understanding the arguments, data, and policy discussions that are shaping the future of real estate. Whether you\'re an agent, broker, homeowner, or industry observer, this is a conversation worth hearing.

Megan Oh chose the exact opposite path.

In this episode of Real Estate Insiders Unfiltered, James Dwiggins and Keith Robinson sit down with Megan Oh, a Certified Divorce Real Estate Expert (CDRE), to discuss one of the most overlooked opportunities in real estate: divorce real estate. While many agents avoid these transactions because of the emotional complexity and conflict involved, Megan has built a thriving business helping clients navigate one of the most difficult transitions of their lives.

This episode explores why divorce real estate is a growing niche, how agents can become trusted advisors during challenging situations, and why specialization often creates more opportunities than trying to be everything to everyone. Megan explains the legal, emotional, and practical realities of divorce transactions, how she works alongside attorneys and courts, and why neutrality is critical when helping both parties reach a successful outcome.

You\'ll also learn:
Why most agents underestimate the value of specialization
The difference between being a generalist and becoming a trusted expert
How attorneys become a consistent referral source
What it takes to build credibility in a specialized market
Why passion matters when choosing a niche
Whether you\'re a new agent looking for direction or an experienced professional searching for your next growth opportunity, this conversation offers valuable lessons about building a business around service, expertise, and purpose.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[The real estate industry has a trust problem.

And according to Samson Properties CEO Donny Samson, many of the biggest threats aren\'t coming from outside the industry, they\'re coming from within.

In this episode of Real Estate Insiders Unfiltered, James Dwiggins and Keith Robinson sit down with Donny to discuss one of the most important conversations happening in real estate today: why consumers are losing confidence in the industry and what agents, brokerages, MLSs, and associations can do about it.

The discussion covers:
The controversy surrounding private listing networks
Why cooperation has always been the foundation of real estate
The growing disconnect between industry leaders and everyday agents
Why public trust matters more than ever
How agents can stay relevant in an increasingly automated world

Donny doesn\'t hold back when discussing the industry\'s current challenges. He argues that constant infighting, confusing policies, and competing systems are creating uncertainty not only for agents, but also for the consumers they\'re supposed to serve.

At the same time, he offers a hopeful perspective on the future. While technology continues to evolve rapidly, he believes the agents who focus on trust, relationships, and delivering value will continue to thrive.

If you\'ve been trying to make sense of private listings, MLS debates, industry consolidation, or the role of AI in real estate, this is a conversation you won\'t want to miss.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[Real estate agents help clients build wealth every day.

But when it comes to saving for their own future? Many are failing.

In this episode of Real Estate Insiders Unfiltered, James and Keith sit down with financial advisor, investor, and author Andrew McNair to discuss one of the most overlooked problems in real estate: retirement planning.

Andrew started studying wealth building at age 14 after reading Rich Dad Poor Dad. By 25, he had accumulated enough real estate to never need a traditional job again. Today, he manages hundreds of millions in assets and helps people navigate investing, retirement, and long-term wealth creation.

The conversation covers:
The biggest mistakes commission-based professionals make
Why most Americans are dramatically underprepared for retirement
The difference between building income and building wealth
How to diversify beyond real estate
Why financial freedom starts with habits, not income
One of the most powerful moments comes when Andrew explains that the retirement crisis is likely worse than most people realize. Not because people will become homeless, but because many will simply never be able to stop working.

This isn\'t a conversation about getting rich. It\'s a conversation about building options.

Because the goal isn\'t making more money. The goal is making sure you don\'t have to work forever.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[Washington just became one of the most important battlegrounds in the fight over private listings.

With the passage of SB 6091, Washington has created a new framework that allows private listing networks—but requires properties to be publicly marketed at the same time. The goal? Protect consumers while preserving transparency in the marketplace.

In this episode of Real Estate Insiders Unfiltered, James Dwiggins and Keith Robinson sit down with Washington Realtors CEO Nathan Gorton and 2026 President Ryan Beckett to unpack exactly what the law does, why it was created, and what it could mean for the future of real estate nationwide.

The discussion explores:
What SB 6091 actually requires
Why consumer protection became the driving force behind the bill
The future of MLS cooperation and listing transparency
How other states are responding to private listing networks
The growing possibility of DOJ scrutiny

One of the most important moments comes when the conversation shifts from industry politics to consumer outcomes.

As Ryan Beckett explains, real estate has spent decades creating systems that give buyers and sellers greater access to information—not less. The concern isn\'t simply about private listings. It\'s about preventing the industry from moving backward into a fragmented marketplace where consumers have less visibility and fewer choices.

Whether you\'re a broker, agent, MLS executive, association leader, or simply trying to understand the future of listing access, this episode delivers one of the clearest discussions available on the topic.

Because this debate isn\'t really about private listings.

It\'s about who gets access to opportunity.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[\"My first addiction was achievement.\"

That\'s the statement that sets the tone for one of the most honest conversations ever featured on Real Estate Insiders Unfiltered.

Luxury real estate agent, entrepreneur, Shark Tank alum, and author Shelton Wilder joins James Dwiggins and Keith Robinson for a powerful discussion about success, failure, sobriety, resilience, and what it really takes to build a thriving business without losing yourself in the process.

Before becoming one of Los Angeles\' top luxury real estate professionals, Shelton experienced business failures, bankruptcy, addiction, and countless setbacks. Instead of hiding those experiences, she made a decision that would change everything: embrace complete authenticity.

In this episode, Shelton shares:
Her journey from entrepreneurship to luxury real estate
How bankruptcy and sobriety transformed her perspective
Why fearlessness is a skill anyone can develop
The power of personal branding and social media
Why perfection is often the enemy of progress

Whether you\'re an agent, entrepreneur, business owner, or someone navigating a major life transition, Shelton\'s story is proof that your biggest setbacks can become your greatest strengths.

This episode is funny, inspiring, emotional, and packed with practical lessons about leadership, confidence, resilience, and showing up as your authentic self.

<description ><![CDATA[\"My first addiction was achievement.\"

That\'s the statement that sets the tone for one of the most honest conversations ever featured on Real Estate Insiders Unfiltered.

Luxury real estate agent, entrepreneur, Shark Tank alum, and author Shelton Wilder joins James Dwiggins and Keith Robinson for a powerful discussion about success, failure, sobriety, resilience, and what it really takes to build a thriving business without losing yourself in the process.

Before becoming one of Los Angeles\' top luxury real estate professionals, Shelton experienced business failures, bankruptcy, addiction, and countless setbacks. Instead of hiding those experiences, she made a decision that would change everything: embrace complete authenticity.

In this episode, Shelton shares:
Her journey from entrepreneurship to luxury real estate
How bankruptcy and sobriety transformed her perspective
Why fearlessness is a skill anyone can develop
The power of personal branding and social media
Why perfection is often the enemy of progress

Whether you\'re an agent, entrepreneur, business owner, or someone navigating a major life transition, Shelton\'s story is proof that your biggest setbacks can become your greatest strengths.

This episode is funny, inspiring, emotional, and packed with practical lessons about leadership, confidence, resilience, and showing up as your authentic self.

If you\'ve ever worried about failing, looking foolish, or putting yourself out there, this conversation may completely change how you think about success.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[What if IDX was a mistake?

That’s one of the biggest questions raised in this episode of Real Estate Insiders Unfiltered with Hoby Hanna, CEO of Howard Hanna Real Estate.

As debates around private listings, MLS consolidation, data ownership, and portal influence continue to intensify, Hoby offers a perspective that challenges many of the assumptions the industry has operated under for the last 25 years.

At the center of the conversation is a simple but controversial question: Who should control listing data?

Hoby argues that brokers have gradually lost control of one of their most valuable assets and explores whether technologies like OcuSell, broker-controlled distribution platforms, and evolving MLS structures could shift that balance back. Along the way, James and Keith push back, exploring what these changes could mean for consumers, agent choice, transparency, and competition.

The discussion also covers:
The history and evolution of Howard Hanna
Zillow, portals, and data monetization
MRED\'s national MLS ambitions
Why IDX may no longer serve its original purpose
Raising professionalism standards in real estate

Whether you\'re an agent, broker, MLS executive, or industry leader, this episode tackles some of the most important questions facing residential real estate today.

And by the end, you may find yourself asking the same thing: Should IDX still exist?

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[Real estate school teaches you how to pass an exam. But it doesn’t prepare you for rejection, prospecting, emotional clients, inconsistent income, or the reality of building a business from scratch.

And that’s exactly why so many agents fail.

In this episode of Real Estate Insiders Unfiltered, James and Keith sit down with Kate Tofuri and Alli Trowbridge, co-authors of What Real Estate School Didn’t Teach You, to talk about the massive disconnect between licensing and real-world success.

Because the reality is passing the exam is the easy part.

Kate, a former police officer turned instructor, and Alli, who came from a psychology background, share the practical lessons they wish every new agent understood before entering the business.

This episode dives into:
Why most agents fail in their first 18 months
Why broker training is often broken
The dangerous illusion of “freedom” in real estate
How to generate your first real leads
Why mindset matters more than scripts

One of the biggest takeaways? A lot of agents stay stuck because they keep preparing instead of executing. At some point, you have to stop studying and start doing.

If you’re a new agent, team leader, broker, or someone considering real estate as a career this episode will completely change your expectations of the business.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[Real estate tech has a problem. Too many tools, too many logins, too many systems pretending to be “platforms.”

And according to Lone Wolf CEO Matt Fischer half of them won’t survive.

In this episode of Real Estate Insiders Unfiltered, James and Keith sit down with Matt to unpack the future of real estate technology, AI, automation, and why the current tech stack is fundamentally broken.

Coming from outside the industry after scaling Bullhorn into a global software company, Matt immediately noticed something shocking:

Real estate runs on fragmented systems, duplicate work, and absurdly manual processes.

One example? Companies literally hire people just to manually move transactions through software stages.

This conversation dives into:
Why most real estate tech companies are actually just “features”
Why transaction coordination is ripe for automation
The hidden problem with fragmented platforms
Why the future belongs to integrated systems of record
How “digital teammates” will reshape brokerage operations

Matt also shares a fascinating perspective on the future of UI, AI agents, and why technology should disappear into the workflow. Not become another burden agents have to manage.

Because here’s the reality: the winners in real estate tech won’t be the companies with the most features. They’ll be the ones that remove the most friction.

If you care about the future of brokerages, AI, and where real estate technology is heading next, this episode is essential.

<description ><![CDATA[Real estate tech has a problem. Too many tools, too many logins, too many systems pretending to be “platforms.”

And according to Lone Wolf CEO Matt Fischer half of them won’t survive.

In this episode of Real Estate Insiders Unfiltered, James and Keith sit down with Matt to unpack the future of real estate technology, AI, automation, and why the current tech stack is fundamentally broken.

Coming from outside the industry after scaling Bullhorn into a global software company, Matt immediately noticed something shocking:

Real estate runs on fragmented systems, duplicate work, and absurdly manual processes.

One example? Companies literally hire people just to manually move transactions through software stages.

This conversation dives into:
Why most real estate tech companies are actually just “features”
Why transaction coordination is ripe for automation
The hidden problem with fragmented platforms
Why the future belongs to integrated systems of record
How “digital teammates” will reshape brokerage operations

Matt also shares a fascinating perspective on the future of UI, AI agents, and why technology should disappear into the workflow. Not become another burden agents have to manage.

Because here’s the reality: the winners in real estate tech won’t be the companies with the most features. They’ll be the ones that remove the most friction.

If you care about the future of brokerages, AI, and where real estate technology is heading next, this episode is essential.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[The Zillow vs. MRED battle is no longer behind closed doors. It’s public. It’s messy.

And according to Chicago broker Tommy Choi, agents are becoming “collateral damage.”

In this episode of Real Estate Insiders Unfiltered, James Dwiggins and Keith Robinson sit down with Tommy Choi who is a top-producing broker, Keller Williams franchise owner, and MRED board member, to break down what’s actually happening between Zillow and MRED.

Because this isn’t just about listing syndication. It’s about private listing networks, MLS control, brokerage power, consumer access, and who owns the future of inventory.

Tommy explains how MRED’s PLN (Private Listing Network) has existed since 2016, why Zillow’s new policy created tension, and why many agents feel caught in the middle of a much larger battle.

But this conversation goes even deeper.

Tommy shares one of the best branding analogies we’ve ever heard on the show: “Nike is a brand. Hyatt is a logo.”

And his point is powerful:

Most agents are building dependence on company logos instead of building brands consumers actually trust.

This episode dives into:
Why MRED created its PLN years ago
The danger of brokerage-controlled inventory
Why agents are becoming collateral damage
The future of MLS consolidation
Why most agents aren’t building real brands

If you’re confused about the Zillow vs. MRED fight or worried about where the industry is heading this is the clearest breakdown you’ll hear.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[What is Redfin really planning with private listings, coming soon inventory, and the Rocket acquisition?

In this episode of Real Estate Insiders Unfiltered, James and Keith sit down with Joe Rath, Rocket’s Head of Industry Relations and one of the longtime leaders behind Redfin’s growth, for a behind-the-scenes conversation about the future of real estate.

Joe explains how Redfin evolved from an industry disruptor into a central player in one of the biggest mergers the industry has seen in years. But the real conversation begins when the group dives into what’s “really coming soon”: including private listings, seller-controlled marketing strategies, MLS tensions, and how companies like Redfin, Rocket, Compass, Zillow, and Realtor.com are reshaping the flow of inventory.

The discussion becomes a direct debate about the future of the industry:
Will technology platforms dominate?
Are agents still the center of the transaction?
Is the MLS losing control?
And what does the consumer actually want?

Keith argues that trust and relationships still drive every major housing decision, while Joe explains why the industry is moving toward a more flexible, consumer-driven ecosystem.

This is one of the most honest and revealing conversations yet about where real estate is heading and who may control it next.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[At 5:57 AM, U.S. Marshals battered down Suneet Agarwal’s front door.

Laser sights. Guns drawn. Assets seized.

And somehow, that moment became the beginning of his real estate career.

In this episode of Real Estate Insiders Unfiltered, James Dwiggins and Keith Robinson sit down with Suneet Agarwal, President of Reside, for one of the craziest and most inspiring conversations we’ve ever had on the show.

Before real estate, Suneet was running legal medical cannabis dispensaries in California during one of the most chaotic periods in the industry’s history. After a federal raid changed everything, he rebuilt from scratch and eventually became one of the top-producing team leaders in California.

But this conversation goes way beyond the origin story. Suneet breaks down the mindset philosophy that changed his life: “No responsibility.”
Meaning: No excuses, no blaming the market, no victim mentality, full ownership over results.
They also dive into:
Why most agents fail in difficult markets
The power of routines, affirmations, and mindset
Why action beats emotion every time
AI, automation, and the future of agent efficiency
Why resilience matters more than talent
This episode is part motivation, part therapy session, and part tactical blueprint for surviving the next phase of the real estate industry.
And honestly?
It might be the most unexpectedly powerful conversation we’ve had yet.

<title >Your Brokerage Is Shrinking. The Data Proves It.</title>

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[Most brokerages think they’re growing; more agents, more recruiting, more activity.

But the data tells a different story.

In this episode of Real Estate Insiders Unfiltered, James Dwiggins and Keith Robinson sit down with Sean Soderstrom, CEO of Courted, to break down one of the most comprehensive reports on brokerage recruiting and retention; and what it actually reveals about the industry.

Because here’s the reality, many brokerages are quietly losing productivity. Even while adding agents.

In fact, across the top 100 brands, agents leaving are 46% more productive than the ones being recruited.

That means growth on paper, but decline in performance.

This conversation dives into:
Why most brokerages are trading down in agent quality
Why recruiting alone doesn’t fix the problem
The hidden impact of agent movement and attrition
Why middle-producing agents are the most valuable and most ignored
What leaders should actually be measuring (and almost none are)

Sean also breaks down the bigger issue: real estate is built on a constantly shifting agent population. Where nearly half the industry joins, leaves, or switches brokerages every year.

And if your strategy doesn’t account for that you’re not growing, you’re just replacing.

If you’re a broker, team leader, or operator trying to build something sustainable, this episode is required listening.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[What if the way most brokerages operate is completely wrong?

In this episode of Real Estate Insiders Unfiltered, James and Keith sit down with Chris Watters, CEO of Waters International Realty, to break down a model that goes against almost everything the industry teaches.

Because here’s what Chris built: agents don’t generate their own leads, agents don’t manage their own marketing, agents don’t run their own operations, and agents don’t get traditional splits.

Instead, everything is systemized. Appointments are set for them. Marketing is handled. Operations are handled. And their job is simple: Show up. Convert. Repeat.

The result? Agents closing 60–120 deals per year. Teams generate hundreds of listing appointments monthly. And a business built on predictability not guesswork.

This episode dives into:
How high-intent data (probate, divorce, foreclosure) drives conversions
Why most agents are “brainwashed” to accept low conversion timelines
How he hires, trains, and eliminates underperformers quickly
Why agents accept a 15% split and still make $150K–$300K/year
The biggest bottleneck in scaling: leadership, not agents

They also unpack a hard truth: most agents don’t want to run a business. They want to sell. And this model is built exactly for that.
If you’re trying to scale, increase production, or rethink how your brokerage operates this episode is a blueprint.

And the real question isn’t what happened. It’s what happens next.

In this episode of Real Estate Insiders Unfiltered, James Dwiggins and Keith Robinson sit down with eXp CEO Leo Pareja to break down the strategy, vision, and implications behind one of the most talked-about moves in real estate.

Because this isn’t just about a deal. It’s about where the industry is going.
From cultural alignment to business model expansion, this conversation goes deeper than the headlines and rumor mill.

This episode dives into:
Why eXp acquired NextHome and why now
How this creates a multi-model future for agents
What this means for NextHome franchise owners
Why there’s minimal overlap between the two companies
How scale, capital, and technology will impact growth

They also address the bigger picture: real estate is consolidating and the companies that win will be the ones that can adapt without losing their identity.

Because this isn’t just about getting bigger. It’s about building something more durable.

If you’re an agent, broker, or industry leader trying to understand what’s actually happening behind the scenes this is the conversation you’ve been waiting for.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[What if the biggest problem in real estate isn’t agents?

It’s brokerages.

In this episode of Real Estate Insiders Unfiltered, James Dwiggins and Keith Robinson sit down with Jesse Garcia (entrepreneur, team leader, and tech founder) to unpack a statement most people in the industry are afraid to say: A lot of brokerages simply shouldn’t exist.

And this isn’t just opinion.

Jesse built a financial operating system used by brokerages, giving him direct visibility into how they actually run their numbers, structure, and sustainability.

What he saw changed his perspective completely.

This conversation dives into:
Why many brokerages are fundamentally broken
The disconnect between recruiting and real value
What agents actually want (hint: it’s not just splits)
Why alignment matters more than “culture” talk
How agents can better evaluate where they belong

They also explore a bigger shift happening in the industry: agents are starting to think like entrepreneurs. And that means asking harder questions.

Not “Who will take me?”
But “Where do I actually belong?”

Because the wrong environment doesn’t just slow you down it can cost you years.

If you’re an agent, team leader, or brokerage owner trying to figure out what actually works in today’s market this episode is a must-watch.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[Private listings are quickly becoming one of the most polarizing topics in real estate.

Some see them as innovation. Others see them as a threat to transparency, cooperation, and the consumer experience.

In this episode of Real Estate Insiders Unfiltered, James and Keith sit down with Robert Palmer, CEO of LPT Realty, to break down what’s really happening and why this conversation is far more complex than most people realize.

Because the truth is: not all markets operate the same way. What works in Manhattan luxury real estate doesn’t translate to middle America and trying to force one model across the entire industry is where things start to break down.

Robert shares a direct perspective on:
Why private listings are being “weaponized” in today’s market
Why creating exclusive inventory can divide the industry
How competing worldviews are shaping the future of real estate
The role of MLS cooperation and consumer access
Where innovation actually makes sense and where it doesn’t

But this conversation goes deeper than listings.

It’s about control, influence, and the direction of the entire industry.

Because when inventory becomes a tool for leverage everything changes.

If you want to understand what’s really happening behind the headlines and how it impacts your business this episode is a must-watch.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[There’s a mortgage strategy most agents and even lenders don’t talk about.

Not because it doesn’t work, but because it doesn’t benefit them the same way.

It’s called an assumable mortgage and it could completely change how buyers afford homes in today’s market.

In this episode of Real Estate Insiders Unfiltered, James and Keith sit down with Ryan Thomson, also known as “The Assumable Guy,” to break down how this strategy works and why it’s making a comeback right now.

Because here’s the reality: these loans have existed for decades, but most of the industry forgot about them.

And now, in a high-rate environment, they’re one of the most powerful tools agents can use.

This episode dives into:
What an assumable mortgage actually is
Why FHA and VA loans can be transferred to buyers
How buyers can lock in 2–3% interest rates
How to find assumable deals in your market
Why this niche is creating massive lead opportunities
Ryan also shares how he built a business around this strategy, generating 100+ leads per week and closing millions in volume from a niche most agents ignore.

Because in real estate the biggest opportunities are usually hiding in plain sight.

Stay ahead of the market with insights from Zillow’s Consumer Trends Report. This annual research breaks down what buyers and sellers are actually doing — and what they expect from their agents. 

With 55% of buyers being repeat buyers, yet only 13% using their previous agent again, the message is clear: past performance doesn’t guarantee future loyalty. Even more telling, nearly half of buyers and over half of sellers hire the first agent they contact. 

Today’s clients prioritize pricing strategy, negotiation expertise, and a seamless, organized offer process. If you want to position yourself as the agent they choose in 2026, start with the data.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[For decades, real estate agents were the gatekeepers of information.

Listings. Market data. Access.

That advantage is gone.

AI didn’t just disrupt the industry. It exposed it.

In this episode of Real Estate Insiders Unfiltered, James and Keith sit down with Jerimiah Taylor, CEO of BrokerBot, to break down what AI actually means for real estate agents and why most people are thinking about it wrong.

Because the real shift isn’t just automation.

It’s this: Information is now a commodity. And when information becomes a commodity agents have to become something else.

This conversation dives into:
The shift from gatekeeper → advisor → experience creator
How AI is moving from answers to action (agentic AI)
Why most agents are terrible at prompting and why it matters
How AI will scale top agents—not replace them
Why data chaos is the biggest bottleneck in real estate

Jerimiah also shares how his company is building AI that actually works (not just slide decks), and what it takes to compete in a world where technology is evolving faster than most agents can keep up.

Here’s the bottom line: If your value is access to information, AI already replaced you.

If your value is the experience you create, you’re just getting started.

Jerimiah also shares how his company is building AI that actually works (not just slide decks), and what it takes to compete in a world where technology is evolving faster than most agents can keep up.

Here’s the bottom line: If your value is access to information, AI already replaced you.

If your value is the experience you create, you’re just getting started.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[Everyone in real estate is asking the same question: when are mortgage rates going back to 3%?

According to NAR Chief Economist Dr. Lawrence Yun, they’re not.
At least not anytime soon.

In this episode of Real Estate Insiders Unfiltered, James and Keith sit down with Dr. Yun to break down the real forces driving today’s housing market and why expecting ultra-low mortgage rates again may be unrealistic.
Because this isn’t just about inflation.

It’s about national debt levels, government spending, global instability and oil prices, consumer confidence, and long-term economic shifts.

Dr. Yun explains how rising national debt is putting pressure on mortgage rates, limiting how low they can realistically go even if inflation cools.

This conversation dives into:
Why mortgage rates are unlikely to return to 3%
How government debt impacts interest rates
What rising oil prices mean for housing
The reality behind today’s “K-shaped” economy
Why consumer confidence is at historic lows

They also break down a critical mindset shift: stop waiting for the market to change.

Start understanding the market you’re in.

Because the agents who win in this environment won’t be the ones hoping for lower rates. They’ll be the ones who know how to navigate higher ones.

Stay ahead of the market with insights from Zillow’s Consumer Trends Report. This annual research breaks down what buyers and sellers are actually doing — and what they expect from their agents. 

With 55% of buyers being repeat buyers, yet only 13% using their previous agent again, the message is clear: past performance doesn’t guarantee future loyalty. Even more telling, nearly half of buyers and over half of sellers hire the first agent they contact. 

Today’s clients prioritize pricing strategy, negotiation expertise, and a seamless, organized offer process. If you want to position yourself as the agent they choose in 2026, start with the data.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[Here’s a stat that should make every brokerage uncomfortable: Over 60% don’t trust their own finances.

Not just inaccurate… Untrusted.

In this episode of Real Estate Insiders Unfiltered, James and Keith sit down with Sasha Hryciuk (CEO of Loft47) and Tracy Simmons (CRO of Loft47) to break down what’s really happening inside real estate brokerages and why it’s a much bigger problem than most people realize.

Because this isn’t just about messy books. It’s about: making decisions without real data, not knowing your margins, duplicate systems and broken workflows, and increasing risk as compliance gets tighter.


And here’s where it gets serious… As AI becomes more embedded in financial systems and even government auditing; accuracy isn’t optional anymore.

You can’t tell the IRS, “the AI did it.” 

This conversation dives into:
Why 60% of brokerages don’t trust their numbers
The real cost of broken back office systems
Why duplicate data entry is still everywhere
How AI is transforming compliance and accounting
Why accuracy beats speed in financial operations


They also unpack a major shift happening right now: AI isn’t just about saving money, it\'s about exposing weaknesses.

Because the brokerages that win won’t just be faster… They’ll be right.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[There are over 2,600 down payment programs available in the U.S.

And most agents never mention them.

That’s not a knowledge problem.

That’s an ego problem.

In this episode of Real Estate Insiders Unfiltered, James and Keith sit down with Rob Chrane (CEO of Down Payment Resource) and Mosi Gatling (New American Funding) to break down why buyers are missing out on an average of $18,000 and how agents are often the reason why.

Because here’s the reality:
Most buyers don’t know these programs exist…


And many agents don’t bring them up because they assume: It will complicate the deal, it weakens the offer, it’s only for “low-income” buyers.

All of that is wrong.

This conversation dives into:
Why over 2,600 programs go unused every day
The biggest myths agents believe about down payment programs
Why these programs aren’t just for first-time buyers
How buyers can use funds to lower rates or keep cash in their pocket
How to integrate these programs into every buyer conversation


Mosi also shares real-world strategies for presenting these options without creating friction and why the best agents don’t wait for clients to ask.

Because if you say you’re a fiduciary… You have to act like one.

If you want to win more business, serve your clients better, and stop leaving money on the table this episode is a must.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[Zillow Pro is redefining how agents keep clients.

“If you’re already married, we stop offering you dates.”

That’s how Zillow COO Jun Choo describes Zillow Pro’s My Agent Connection and it might be one of the most important shifts happening in real estate right now.

In this episode of Real Estate Insiders Unfiltered, we break down Zillow Pro, how Zillow Pro works, and why Zillow Pro could completely change how agents manage relationships inside the Zillow ecosystem.

Because here’s the reality:
Most agents don’t lose clients because of competition… They lose them because the system keeps re-selling them.

Zillow Pro aims to fix that.

You’ll learn:
What Zillow Pro actually is and how it works
How My Agent Connection keeps clients tied to you
Why Zillow is shifting toward relationship protection
How Zillow Preview fits into a full listing strategy

Jun also shares how Zillow builds products, why speed beats perfection, and how staying focused on the customer drives everything.

If you want to stay competitive as real estate technology evolves, understanding Zillow Pro is no longer optional.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[A lot of real estate agents are taking advice from people who’ve never actually done the job.

That’s the problem.

In this episode of Real Estate Insiders Unfiltered, James and Keith sit down with Michael Hellickson, CEO of Club Wealth, to break down one of the most overlooked issues in the industry: who agents are learning from and why it matters.

Michael doesn’t hold back.

From his early days becoming the top listing agent in his office at 18 years old to selling at a national level, his philosophy is simple: If someone hasn’t done what you want to do at a high level, they shouldn’t be teaching you how to do it.

But this episode isn’t just about coaching.

It’s about what actually drives success in real estate and why so many agents get distracted by the wrong things.

This conversation dives into:
The one question you should ask before hiring a coach
The 3 activities that actually grow your business
Why AI isn’t replacing agents—but bad habits are
The concept of AI fatigue and why human connection still wins


Michael also shares tactical strategies around open houses, prospecting, and lead generation including how top agents consistently create opportunities in any market.

Because at the end of the day, success in real estate isn’t complicated. It’s just uncomfortable.

Stay ahead of the market with insights from Zillow’s Consumer Trends Report. This annual research breaks down what buyers and sellers are actually doing — and what they expect from their agents. 

With 55% of buyers being repeat buyers, yet only 13% using their previous agent again, the message is clear: past performance doesn’t guarantee future loyalty. Even more telling, nearly half of buyers and over half of sellers hire the first agent they contact. 

Today’s clients prioritize pricing strategy, negotiation expertise, and a seamless, organized offer process. If you want to position yourself as the agent they choose in 2026, start with the data. 

Explore the full report and put these insights to work in your business.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[What happens if real estate data stops being shared and starts being controlled?

That’s the real question behind the latest mergers, partnerships, and platform moves happening across the industry.

In this episode of Real Estate Insiders Unfiltered, James and Keith sit down with Pierre Calzadilla co-founder of Upfront and one of the earliest operators in proptech to break down what’s actually happening beneath the surface.

From the early days of Trulia to today’s AI-driven platforms, Pierre has seen how data, distribution, and technology shape the entire real estate ecosystem.

And his perspective is clear: when you control the data, you control the market.

This conversation dives into:
Why data control is the real battleground in real estate
What happens when inventory becomes fragmented
Why the MLS was built and what happens if it breaks
The risk of creating closed ecosystems vs open marketplaces
What agents and brokerages should be paying attention to right now

Pierre also shares how technology is already changing brokerage operations from compliance and back office automation to financial infrastructure and why most of today’s systems are built on outdated assumptions.

Because this isn’t just about one merger.

It’s about whether real estate stays an open, cooperative marketplace or becomes a fragmented, controlled system.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[“Coming soon” listings might seem like a small strategy shift… But they could have massive consequences for the entire real estate industry.

In this episode of Real Estate Insiders Unfiltered, James and Keith sit down with Art Carter (CEO of CRMLS) and Ed Zorn (VP & General Counsel) to break down why “coming soon” listings, private listings, and MLS rules are becoming one of the most controversial and risky topics in real estate.

Because this isn’t just about marketing strategy.

It’s about cooperation, transparency, and whether the industry is heading back toward the same issues that triggered past DOJ action.

The MLS system was built over decades to create a fair and transparent marketplace but today, confusion around rules, data, and listing practices is growing fast.

And that confusion could come with consequences.

In this episode, you’ll learn:
What “coming soon” listings actually are (and what they’re not)
Why seller choice is being debated across the industry
The real reason MLS rules exist and why they matter
Why fragmentation could break pricing, appraisals, and transactions
How current trends could lead to DOJ scrutiny or intervention

They also unpack a critical reality:

If listing data becomes fragmented and inconsistent, the entire system from pricing to lending starts to break down. 

Because this isn’t just about listings. It’s about whether the real estate market remains transparent, cooperative, and fair or becomes fragmented and unreliable.

Stay ahead of the market with insights from Zillow’s Consumer Trends Report. This annual research breaks down what buyers and sellers are actually doing — and what they expect from their agents. 

With 55% of buyers being repeat buyers, yet only 13% using their previous agent again, the message is clear: past performance doesn’t guarantee future loyalty. Even more telling, nearly half of buyers and over half of sellers hire the first agent they contact. 

Today’s clients prioritize pricing strategy, negotiation expertise, and a seamless, organized offer process. If you want to position yourself as the agent they choose in 2026, start with the data.

<description ><![CDATA[“Coming soon” listings might seem like a small strategy shift… But they could have massive consequences for the entire real estate industry.

In this episode of Real Estate Insiders Unfiltered, James and Keith sit down with Art Carter (CEO of CRMLS) and Ed Zorn (VP & General Counsel) to break down why “coming soon” listings, private listings, and MLS rules are becoming one of the most controversial and risky topics in real estate.

Because this isn’t just about marketing strategy.

It’s about cooperation, transparency, and whether the industry is heading back toward the same issues that triggered past DOJ action.

The MLS system was built over decades to create a fair and transparent marketplace but today, confusion around rules, data, and listing practices is growing fast.

And that confusion could come with consequences.

In this episode, you’ll learn:
What “coming soon” listings actually are (and what they’re not)
Why seller choice is being debated across the industry
The real reason MLS rules exist and why they matter
Why fragmentation could break pricing, appraisals, and transactions
How current trends could lead to DOJ scrutiny or intervention

They also unpack a critical reality:

If listing data becomes fragmented and inconsistent, the entire system from pricing to lending starts to break down. 

Because this isn’t just about listings. It’s about whether the real estate market remains transparent, cooperative, and fair or becomes fragmented and unreliable.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[There’s a lot of noise in real estate right now.

Private listings. MLS debates. Industry changes. New rules.

But what if none of it actually matters?

In this episode of Real Estate Insiders Unfiltered, James and Keith sit down with Danny Brown, a top-producing Los Angeles agent, to talk about what actually drives long-term success in real estate.

With over 25 years in the business and consistent $100M+ production, Danny has seen every cycle and his perspective is clear: The agents who win aren’t the ones chasing trends. They’re the ones focused on what they can control.

This conversation dives into:
Why industry changes rarely impact top producers
The truth about private listings and MLS fragmentation
How Danny built his business brick by brick over 25 years
What it really takes to break into higher price points
Why work ethic still beats strategy
The mindset agents need to survive any market


Danny also shares exactly how he started; open houses, direct mail, and consistent follow-up and why those same fundamentals still outperform everything else today.

If you’re feeling overwhelmed by the industry right now, this episode will bring you back to what actually works.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[Most real estate agents think their job starts after you find a home online.

That’s the problem.

In this episode of Real Estate Insiders Unfiltered, James and Keith sit down with Sheila Reddy, Founder and CEO of Mosaik, to break down one of the biggest misconceptions in real estate and why it’s holding both agents and clients back.
Sheila brings a unique perspective. She didn’t grow up in the industry; she experienced it firsthand as a buyer, seller, investor, and landlord. What she saw was a system that’s optimized for transactions, not for helping people make better decisions.

Because the truth is:
Real estate isn’t just about finding a home, it’s about making the right decision before you ever find one.

The conversation dives into why today’s search experience falls short, how agents can actually create value earlier in the process, and what happens when technology, AI, and consumer expectations collide.

You’ll learn:
Why most agents misunderstand when their job actually starts
The gap between searching for homes and making the right decision
What great agents do before a client ever finds a listing
Where the current real estate experience breaks down
How AI and technology will reshape the client journey
Why clarity not access is the future of agent value


If you want to stand out in a changing market, this episode will challenge how you think about your role as an agent and where your real value begins.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[When the real estate market slows down, not every brokerage (or agent) makes it through.

So the real question becomes: who survives the real estate recession?

In this episode of Real Estate Insiders Unfiltered, James Dwiggins and Keith Robinson sit down with Jack Miller for a deep dive into the forces reshaping residential real estate.

Jack shares insights from research examining the top 1,000 brokerages in the country, revealing the patterns that separate companies that survive downturns from those that struggle when the market shifts.

But the conversation goes far beyond brokerage rankings.

They explore MLS consolidation, brokerage consolidation, the growing role of AI, mortgage companies moving deeper into real estate, and the cyclical nature of the housing market. As the industry moves through another transition period, understanding these trends could determine which businesses grow stronger; and which ones disappear.

And if you stay to the end, Jack answers a simple but powerful question: what would he focus on if he were building a real estate business today?

You’ll learn:
What the top 1,000 brokerages reveal about industry survival
Why real estate recessions accelerate consolidation
How MLS consolidation could reshape the industry
Why AI will influence how brokerages operate
How mortgage companies entering real estate changes the competitive landscape
The one focus Jack Miller believes matters most right now

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[Selling five homes a year might pay a few bills, but it’s not a real estate business.

In this episode of Real Estate Insiders Unfiltered, James and Keith sit down with Lisa Chinatti, broker-owner of Chinatti Realty Group, to break down the mindset and systems that helped her transform her career from selling just a few homes annually to 82 transactions in a single year as a solo agent.

Lisa explains the simple but powerful discipline that fueled her growth: prospecting daily and refusing to leave the office until she had booked two appointments. That single commitment completely changed the trajectory of her business.

But this conversation goes far beyond prospecting.

Lisa shares the leadership lessons she learned while building a brokerage with more than 100 agents, how she rebuilt parts of her business after leadership mistakes, and why most agents fail because they never truly treat real estate like a business.

You’ll learn:
The mindset shift that took Lisa from 8 deals to 82
Why appointments are the most important metric in real estate
How to handle rejection while prospecting
Why selling a few homes a year isn’t a real business
How Chinatti Realty built a successful in-house ISA department
Why diagnosing business problems before fixing them matters

If you\'re serious about building a real estate business that lasts, this episode is packed with actionable insights.

Stay ahead of the market with insights from Zillow’s Consumer Trends Report. This annual research breaks down what buyers and sellers are actually doing — and what they expect from their agents. 

With 55% of buyers being repeat buyers, yet only 13% using their previous agent again, the message is clear: past performance doesn’t guarantee future loyalty. Even more telling, nearly half of buyers and over half of sellers hire the first agent they contact. 

Today’s clients prioritize pricing strategy, negotiation expertise, and a seamless, organized offer process. If you want to position yourself as the agent they choose in 2026, start with the data. 

Explore the full report and put these insights to work in your business.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[In this episode of Real Estate Insiders Unfiltered, James Dwiggins and Keith Robinson sit down with Todd Cutter, broker-owner of 2Costa Rica Real Estate, to explore what buying and selling property looks like in Costa Rica; where agents work without centralized listing data, consistent addresses, or standardized market transparency.

Todd explains how agents build comps manually, how brokerages cooperate to market listings, and why choosing the right agent becomes even more important when reliable data is harder to find. In a market without full MLS adoption, relationships, reputation, and local knowledge become the most valuable tools an agent can have.

But this conversation goes beyond Costa Rica.

Todd also shares insights on global migration trends, why more Americans are looking at international real estate, and what agents everywhere can learn about patience, relationship building, and long-term business growth.

You’ll learn:
What real estate looks like without an MLS
Why centralized listing data protects buyers and sellers
How agents collaborate in markets without shared systems
The role of referrals and global networks in second-home markets
Why patience and intentionality still win in real estate


If you’ve ever wondered what the industry might look like without an MLS, this conversation provides a real-world perspective.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[MLS vs Big Tech isn’t just industry drama—it’s a fight over who controls the future of real estate.

In this episode of Real Estate Insiders Unfiltered, James Dwiggins and Keith Robinson sit down with Amit Kulkarni, former executive at Realtor.com and Bright MLS, to unpack what MLS vs Big Tech really means for agents, brokerages, and consumers.

They break down the Compass–Rocket–Redfin deal and why moves like this signal a bigger shift: companies with massive capital aren’t thinking transaction-by-transaction. They’re thinking ecosystem; data, distribution, and lifetime customer value. And that changes everything about how real estate competes.

But this conversation goes beyond headlines.

Amit explains why MLS vs Big Tech becomes dangerous when the MLS is fragmented, when data standards remain inconsistent, and when leadership avoids hard decisions. They also dig into AI; why it’s still early, why it’ll become ingrained in the workflow, and why the agents and organizations that adapt fastest will create an unfair advantage.

You’ll learn:
Why the Compass–Rocket–Redfin move matters
How MLS vs Big Tech becomes a data and control battle
Why fragmentation creates risk for transparency and consumers
What AI changes (and what it doesn’t)
Why it’s “a terrible time to be average” and a great time to be exceptional


If you want to understand MLS vs Big Tech and what happens next, this episode is essential.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[MLS fragmentation isn’t just an industry debate, it\'s a direct threat to the free and fair housing marketplace.

In this episode, Leigh Brown delivers one of the most powerful conversations we’ve had about MLS fragmentation, cooperation, and why understanding real estate history matters more than ever. She explains how universal cooperation was created to protect consumers, how MLS fragmentation could limit access to inventory, and why newer agents must understand the structure that built their careers.

But this conversation goes beyond policy.

Leigh breaks down how MLS fragmentation connects to property rights, professionalism, and what happens when short-term thinking overrides long-term protection of the marketplace. She also shares practical strategies for prospecting, database follow-up, and social media all centered around one core principle: be useful.

You’ll learn:
The real origin story of the MLS
Why MLS fragmentation harms consumers
How cooperation created today’s marketplace
The 8-word script Leigh uses to generate business
Why social media must be conversational, not corporate


If you want to understand the future of the MLS and your place in it this episode is for you.

Stay ahead of the market with insights from Zillow’s Consumer Trends Report. This annual research breaks down what buyers and sellers are actually doing — and what they expect from their agents. 
With 55% of buyers being repeat buyers, yet only 13% using their previous agent again, the message is clear: past performance doesn’t guarantee future loyalty. Even more telling, nearly half of buyers and over half of sellers hire the first agent they contact. 
Today’s clients prioritize pricing strategy, negotiation expertise, and a seamless, organized offer process. If you want to position yourself as the agent they choose in 2026, start with the data.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[AI in real estate is no longer theoretical; it\'s already reshaping how transactions happen.

In this episode of Real Estate Insiders Unfiltered, Jon Minerick, CEO of homecoin.com, breaks down how his flat-fee MLS model operates across 36 states and why AI in real estate could soon handle everything from pricing to contract-to-close automation.

But the conversation doesn’t stop at technology.

James and Keith challenge Jon on whether AI in real estate will eliminate agents, replace white-collar jobs, and even change the structure of society. They debate universal basic income, human purpose, automation risk, and whether AI in real estate will empower top performers or wipe out the average ones.

You’ll learn:
Why most flat-fee real estate companies fail
How AI in real estate is already improving pricing and transaction workflows
Why DIY sellers are not the same as investors and builders
The difference between narrow AI, AGI, and superintelligence
Why it will be “a terrible time to be average”

If you want a thoughtful, no-BS conversation about AI in real estate and what it means for agents, this episode delivers.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[Most agents think they need better leads. Shawn Carroll proves what they really need are better real estate relationships.

In this episode of Real Estate Insiders Unfiltered, Shawn shares how he built a 100-deal-a-year business in a town of 20,000 people without cold calling, without buying internet leads, and without chasing trends.

Instead, he focused on real estate relationships.

After sleeping in his office, losing his car, and nearly quitting the business, Shawn doubled down on something simple but powerful: connection. Today, 90% of his business comes from repeat and referral clients built through long-term real estate relationships.

You’ll learn:
Why real estate relationships outperform online lead generation
How to use social media to deepen relationships (not just market yourself)
The role empathy plays in building lasting client trust
Why consistency beats tactics
How branding (even something as simple as your car) keeps you top of mind


If you’re tired of chasing shiny objects and want to build a real estate relationships strategy that actually lasts, this episode will challenge how you think about prospecting, marketing, and connection.

This isn’t about hacks. It’s about humans.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[The REALTOR brand is getting a marketing reset and this conversation explains why it was necessary.

In this episode, James and Keith sit down with Bennett Richardson, Chief Marketing & Communications Officer at the National Association of REALTORS, to discuss the strategy behind NAR’s new “More Than Opening Doors” campaign and what it means for Realtors across the country.

After years of lawsuits, public scrutiny, and communication breakdowns, NAR is shifting its approach to marketing and member engagement. This episode dives into how the new realtor campaign was built, why first-time homebuyers are the primary focus, and how AI-driven media placement is helping ensure the message reaches consumers at exactly the right moment.

You’ll learn:
Why NAR moved away from broad broadcast advertising
How the REALTOR brand is being repositioned for today’s market
What “breaking out of the bunker mentality” means for industry leadership
How storytelling, not slogans, builds consumer trust
Why realtors must reclaim their own narrative

This isn’t just about a new commercial. It’s about redefining how Realtors are seen — by consumers and by themselves.

If you’re a realtor, broker, or industry leader wondering where the brand is headed next, this episode gives you clarity.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[Private listings are at the center of one of the biggest debates in real estate and Side’s founders aren’t holding back.

In this episode of Real Estate Insiders Unfiltered, Guy Gal and Hilary Saunders break down what private listings mean for sellers, agents, and the future of brokerage. From fiduciary duty concerns to fair housing implications, they tackle the private listings controversy head-on.

You’ll learn:
Why private listings may not benefit 98% of sellers
The historical consolidation cycle repeating itself in brokerage
How the internet shifted power from brokerage brands to individual agents
Why the part-time agent model still dominates brokerage economics
How top teams are scaling by “getting out of their own way”


Guy explains why community beats corporate consolidation long-term. Hilary shares why private listings could raise legal and fiduciary red flags. Together, they reveal how agents who build real businesses, not just memberships, are winning.

If you’re trying to understand private listings, brokerage consolidation, and how to future-proof your real estate business, this conversation delivers clarity.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[What’s the biggest lie agents believe? That doing everything yourself is how you win.

In this episode, Kyle Whissel breaks down exactly how he built one of the top-performing teams in the country by doing the opposite. James and Keith dig into Kyle’s journey from burnt out to balanced, and how EOS, trust, and clarity helped him step back from the chaos and scale like never before.

With over 875M in volume, 1,100+ deals a year, and more than 10% of San Diego in his database, Kyle’s not just building a team he’s building a life. And he’s here to help you do the same.

You’ll learn:
Why agents who try to “do it all” stay broke
The EOS framework that changed his business (and life)
How to let go of control and find your integrator
The secret to 4-day workweeks (without dropping production)
How systems create freedom not friction

Give your clients the competitive edge with Zillow’s Showcase. Discover how this exclusive, immersive media experience featuring stunning photography, video, virtual staging, and SkyTour helps agents drive more views, saves, and shares. Agents using Showcase on the majority of their listings on Zillow list 30% more homes than similar non-Showcase agents. Learn how to stand out and become the agent sellers choose.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[What does it really take to go from broke and ready to quit… to owning a multimillion-dollar real estate empire?

Brandon Brittingham did just that and in this raw, unfiltered episode, he shares the full story. James and Keith sit down with Brandon, CEO of The Maryland & Delaware Group of eXp Realty and bestselling author of Converting Units to Dollars, to talk about his journey from $18K in year one to building a vertically integrated real estate investment business with multiple companies, 2,000+ doors under management, and mailbox money for hundreds of everyday investors.

This episode is packed with hard-won insights:
Why most agents are already investors they’re just not getting paid like it
The identity trap that keeps agents from building wealth
Why you need a CFO before you hire anyone else
How to pitch investors, find capital, and build equity instead of tips
The #1 reason agents over-automate and lose the human touch
This is a masterclass in scaling smart, owning your future, and building something worth waking up for.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[Want to grow a $750M brokerage without losing your sanity? Eric Bramlett has done exactly that and in this episode, he shares how.

Founder of Bramlett Partners in Austin, Eric joins James and Keith to talk about the systems, philosophy, and people that power his high-retention, high-referral brokerage. From performance marketing and dashboards to hand-written birthday texts and client gifting, Eric walks us through how he uses both tech and care to scale the unscalable.

You’ll learn:
How to go from “muddling through” to building with intention
Why SOI referrals outperform online leads and how to get them
How Eric’s team uses Follow Up Boss, Looker Studio, and a proprietary portal to manage client care
What makes a great agent (and how he hires for it)
Why culture isn’t fluff it’s your most important system

Plus: the 4DX book that changed his business, why AI won\'t replace agents, and the truth about aging out of the industry.

If you’re a broker, team leader, or growth-minded agent, this is one of the most tactical, honest, and inspiring episodes of the season.

Give your clients the competitive edge with Zillow’s Showcase. Discover how this exclusive, immersive media experience featuring stunning photography, video, virtual staging, and SkyTour helps agents drive more views, saves, and shares. Agents using Showcase on the majority of their listings on Zillow list 30% more homes than similar non-Showcase agents. Learn how to stand out and become the agent sellers choose.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[Is AI coming for your job? Or could it actually make you more human?
In this mind-expanding episode, futurist and author Steve Brown joins James and Keith to map out where we really are with AI—and what’s coming next.

Steve explains the four waves of AI disruption: Generative AI (ChatGPT and beyond), Agentic AI (digital assistants that complete tasks), Spatial AI (understanding the physical world, Physical AI (humanoid robots doing real-world jobs).

You’ll also learn:
How AI agents will reshape how real estate work gets done
Why human connection is still your moat as a Realtor
What “alignment” means and why it\'s the next AI safety crisis
How to lead change instead of fearing it
Why your future depends on boosting both your AI acumen and your humanity
From digital employees to physical robots that clean, cook, and greet you at the door—this episode pulls no punches about what’s next. But it also offers a clear, inspiring path forward.

Whether you’re an agent, broker, or leader, this is your essential AI primer for the future of real estate.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[If you’re still not using AI in your real estate business, this episode will show you exactly why that needs to change fast.

Rajeev Sajja, SVP of Digital Innovation at Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Fox & Roach, joins James and Keith for a deep dive into what AI is (and isn’t) doing for real estate agents today. Rajeev breaks down the three stages of AI integration done by you, done with you, and eventually done for you and how agents can begin moving up that ladder, starting now.

You’ll learn:
How top agents are saving 10+ hours a week with AI tools
Why content creation, CMA prep, and listing marketing are the lowest-hanging fruit
What an “AI-fluent” realtor actually looks like in 2026
How to train your personal AI assistant to be your second brain
Why showing up in ChatGPT search starts with rewriting your online bios
What to stop believing about instant AI closings and fully autonomous agents

Rajeev also talks about RealScout’s new AI product, Gemini’s image capabilities, and why brokers need to reinvent their value prop now, not later.

It’s an optimistic, tactical episode full of examples you can apply today.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[You don’t grow to nearly 1,000 transactions a year by accident. You do it with structure, culture, and brutally clear expectations.

In this episode of Real Estate Insiders Unfiltered, James and Keith sit down with Mike Hogan and Alicia Pittman of The Hogan Group one of the top-performing teams in Virginia. Together, they’ve built an 80-agent operation that still feels personal, thanks to their innovative micro-team model, mentorship programs, and “clarity is kindness” leadership philosophy.

They share:
Their full org structure, lead source mix, and onboarding process
Why new agents must hit clear milestones—or move on
How AI and ISAs help optimize their database (without replacing agents)
What it really takes to retain top agents in a high-turnover world
Why their recruiting starts by trying to talk agents out of joining
They also discuss the Compass/Anywhere merger, how small teams can compete, and what AI means for the future of connection in a tech-saturated world.

If you’re a team leader, broker, or solo agent trying to build something with staying power—this is the roadmap.

Give your clients the competitive edge with Zillow’s Showcase. Discover how this exclusive, immersive media experience featuring stunning photography, video, virtual staging, and SkyTour helps agents drive more views, saves, and shares. Agents using Showcase on the majority of their listings on Zillow list 30% more homes than similar non-Showcase agents. Learn how to stand out and become the agent sellers choose.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[The most anticipated episode of the year is here: James and Keith’s 2026 Real Estate Predictions. From bold bets to self-scored report cards, this episode is packed with strategic insight, candid reflection, and a blunt look at where the industry is heading.

In this episode:
Why Compass + Anywhere changes everything (and who might be next)
The big moves Zillow could make if inventory keeps disappearing
Will CoStar keep burning cash—or cash out?
The fate of NAR, MLS mergers, and clear cooperation
What happens when AI replaces buyers (but not agents)
Could someone buy a home using AI alone in 2026?

James and Keith also discuss lawsuits creeping down to the agent level, the future of agent attrition, interest rates, transaction volume, and the creeping rise of humanoid robots. Yes, really.

It’s real talk, sharp strategy, and one of the most unfiltered conversations you’ll hear in real estate.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[The real estate industry is at a breaking point and Realtor.com CEO Damian Eales isn’t holding back.

In this episode of Real Estate Insiders Unfiltered, James and Keith sit down with Damian for a blunt conversation on the state of housing in America, the war over listing data, and what he believes is the most important fight of our time: affordable homeownership.

You’ll hear:
Why MLSs are under attack—and what it means for agents
The danger of private listing networks (and how they harm consumers)
How Realtor.com+ gives agents their own client-facing experience to compete with portals
Damian’s take on CoStar, Homes.com, and flawed audience metrics
How political inaction and NIMBYism are making the crisis worse
What needs to happen—federally and locally—to solve housing affordability

This episode also covers the new Realtor.com+ product, giving MLS members a co-branded portal to protect their clients from being remarketed.

Damian pulls no punches on the need for transparency, cooperation, and getting back to the true mission: serving buyers and sellers.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[Colby Culbertson didn’t just leave a cushy Zillow gig. He jumped back into production and built one of Northern California’s top real estate teams—scaling from 6 to 185 agents in just 5 years.

In this episode Colby unpacks the real story behind his 875-unit, $545M volume business. He shares why culture eats production for breakfast, and why his team runs more like a startup than a traditional brokerage.

You’ll learn:
Why he counter-recruits top agents (and what he tells them in the first 5 minutes)
The onboarding challenge every agent must complete before joining
His “no *expletive*” rule—and how it applies to $50M producers
How a shared tech stack keeps 180+ agents aligned
Why some agents are terrible negotiators (and how to fix it)
What Zillow got right—and where they still miss

Colby built a scalable, culture-driven business using systems, honesty, and a ruthless focus on the right people—not just more people.

Give your clients the competitive edge with Zillow’s Showcase. Discover how this exclusive, immersive media experience featuring stunning photography, video, virtual staging, and SkyTour helps agents drive more views, saves, and shares. Agents using Showcase on the majority of their listings on Zillow list 30% more homes than similar non-Showcase agents. Learn how to stand out and become the agent sellers choose.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[Katie Hill isn’t your typical real estate disruptor. She’s not trying to kill the MLS. She’s not launching another listing portal. She’s not cutting out agents. In fact, she’s trying to help them.

In this episode, James and Keith sit down with the founder and CEO of Unlisted, a bold new platform connecting buyers with potential sellers before they ever hit the market.

Unlisted lets buyers express interest in any home in the U.S. not just the ones for sale. Homeowners can then see who’s interested, update their home profiles, and respond if and when they’re ready. It’s a softer, earlier conversation that captures the “gray zone” between “just thinking” and “ready to sell.”

Katie shares:
Why direct mail is still king if you do it right
How she’s partnering with agents, not replacing them
The 3 groups of gray-zone sellers most agents are missing
What Zillow got wrong with “Make Me Move”
Why real estate isn’t Amazon and shouldn’t be

This is a must-listen for forward-thinking agents, brokers, and innovators.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[In the most competitive market in the world, Scott Hustis built a business that thrives on trust, longevity, and brutally consistent follow-up.
In this episode, James and Keith interview Scott, co-founder of Paradigm Advisory at Compass and one of the first agents to join the company back in 2014. From his early days sweating through suits to his $61 million Central Park sale, Scott shares what it really takes to win long-term in luxury real estate.

This episode covers:
What “relationship over transaction” looks like in practice
How he built a team modeled after wealth advisors, not typical brokerages
The three-phase marketing plan (and why he believes in off-market listings)
Tips for new agents: why consistency and coaching matter more than charisma
How AI, data, and humanity will collide in the next big industry shift

Scott also opens up about building his business in NYC, his time as a company strategist at Compass, and how he keeps a sphere of just 257 people driving over $265 million in annual production.

<description ><![CDATA[In the most competitive market in the world, Scott Hustis built a business that thrives on trust, longevity, and brutally consistent follow-up.
In this episode, James and Keith interview Scott, co-founder of Paradigm Advisory at Compass and one of the first agents to join the company back in 2014. From his early days sweating through suits to his $61 million Central Park sale, Scott shares what it really takes to win long-term in luxury real estate.

This episode covers:
What “relationship over transaction” looks like in practice
How he built a team modeled after wealth advisors, not typical brokerages
The three-phase marketing plan (and why he believes in off-market listings)
Tips for new agents: why consistency and coaching matter more than charisma
How AI, data, and humanity will collide in the next big industry shift

Scott also opens up about building his business in NYC, his time as a company strategist at Compass, and how he keeps a sphere of just 257 people driving over $265 million in annual production.
This isn’t a quick-win story. It’s a playbook for real estate longevity.

Discover how this exclusive, immersive media experience featuring stunning photography, video, virtual staging, and SkyTour helps agents drive more views, saves, and shares.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[In an industry often dominated by egos and empty hype, Michele Harrington and Lauren Henss are bringing something refreshingly real to the table.
Michele, a former U.S. Marine, now CEO of First Team Real Estate, shares how discipline, service, and authenticity helped her rise from selling homes to running one of California’s largest brokerages. Lauren, VP of Marketing & Strategic Initiatives, pulls back the curtain on what it really takes to build a brokerage brand that attracts top talent and stands out in a noisy world.

You’ll learn:
How to lead with empathy without sacrificing standards
Why storytelling beats sales pitches (and how agents can apply this today)
The surprising benefits of saying no to the wrong recruits
Behind the scenes of the “Behind the Agent” campaign
What it means to stop building rosters and start building careers
James and Keith go deep with their guests on private listings, AI’s role in real estate, the Zillow-Compass debate, and why authenticity is the most underrated business strategy of 2025.

This isn’t just another leadership episode. It’s a roadmap for brokerages who want to scale with soul and for agents who want to build a business around who they really are.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[How do you lead a 70-agent team to nearly 1,000 deals a year without burning out? In this episode Matt Delhougne, Chief Vision Officer of DRG at eXp, shares the systems, structure, and mindset behind his massive St. Louis-based operation.

Formerly a police officer, Matt brings a leadership style rooted in service and simplicity. He shares how he divided his market into “zones” like patrol beats, created scheduled off-days for lead response, and built a staff of ISAs to clean up overages and follow-ups.

You’ll learn:
His entire team structure and lead flow system
Why SOI and listing presentations are still the only two things that matter
How he’s cracking the SOI resistance wall
Tips to make your business feel personal again with strategic, simple gestures
How to talk to agents in recruiting (without talking about splits)
Matt also shares hard-won lessons on over-caring, hitting cruise control, and avoiding the leadership burnout that nearly broke him. From AI skepticism to MLS data dreams, this episode is packed with real-world takeaways and honesty.

Give your clients the competitive edge with Zillow’s Showcase. Discover how this exclusive, immersive media experience featuring stunning photography, video, virtual staging, and SkyTour helps agents drive more views, saves, and shares.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[Is AI going to replace real estate agents? Probably not. But it is going to replace the agents who refuse to adapt.

In this eye-opening episode, James and Keith sit down with Biju Ashokan, CEO of Radius Agent and one of the sharpest AI minds in the industry. Biju breaks down how AI is already reshaping brokerage operations, automating repetitive tasks, and making agents more productive than ever — and it’s just getting started.

You’ll hear how his team is closing 250 transactions per month with only 11 staff, thanks to AI-powered assistants that schedule meetings, qualify leads, and handle client nurture automatically. We explore the difference between reactive and proactive AI, and what it means for the future of brokerage profitability, staffing, and agent productivity.

This conversation isn’t just about tech. It’s about people. Biju also shares why the emotional human connection in real estate will never go away — and how the agents who double down on that while embracing AI will dominate.
We also explore where AI could go next: robots, job loss, new industries, and what the AI arms race between the U.S. and China means for every industry — not just real estate.

Don’t get left behind. Tune in now to future-proof your business.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[Imagine a home search that thinks the way your clients do.

That’s exactly what RealScout’s new AI search delivers—and in this episode, James Dwiggins and Keith Robinson sit down with RealScout Co-Founder Andrew Flachner and VP of Engineering Anthony Sosso to break down how it works, why it matters, and what it means for the future of the industry.

They reveal:
Why natural language search is the future of real estate
How RealScout avoids hallucinations and “AI lies” by showing the search DNA
What Zillow’s move into ChatGPT actually signals
How MLSs can stay relevant in an AI-powered future
Why search isn’t about more listings—it’s about better matches

This is the deepest dive yet into the evolution of AI in real estate—and why specificity, transparency, and pro-agent design will define the next chapter of home search.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[Scott Poe was a cable box repo man, a nail tech, and now runs one of the fastest-growing real estate teams in the country. In just under three years, he’s built a 50-agent brokerage, partnered with Zillow and Realtor.com, launched a mortgage company, and architected a system designed to scale to $1B in sales. How? Brutal honesty, scalable coaching, AI systems, and a whole lot of grit.

In this unforgettable episode, James and Keith sit down with Scott to unpack:

How a $5K gamble with Realtor.com changed everything
Why he replaced managers with coaches (and AI)
How he keeps agent churn low while growing fast
What he looks for before firing an agent (hint: it’s not sales)
Why agents—not clients—are his real customers

Scott also explains his tech stack, data enrichment strategy, and how he plans to dominate portal leads while building his own database.

This is a crash course in real-world leadership, team building, and how to scale without losing your soul. If you’re tired of fluff and want something real, this is the episode for you.

Give your clients the competitive edge with Zillow’s Showcase. Discover how this exclusive, immersive media experience—featuring stunning photography, video, virtual staging, and SkyTour—helps agents drive more views, saves, and shares. Agents using Showcase on the majority of their listings on Zillow list 30% more homes than similar non-Showcase agents. Learn how to stand out and become the agent sellers choose.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[The National Association of REALTORS® is in the middle of one of the biggest legal transitions in its history. In this episode, James Dwiggins and Keith Robinson are joined by Jon Waclawski, NAR’s new General Counsel and SVP of Legal, to discuss the massive changes happening behind the scenes—including how NAR is “de-risking” its policies, navigating lawsuits, and rethinking governance from the ground up.

Jon brings a unique background as a political attorney and offers rare transparency into what legal risk really means for agents and brokers. From the fallout of the Sitzer-Burnett case to the buyer agreement requirements and commission transparency, this episode lays out what’s at stake for the future of real estate—and how NAR plans to protect it.

If you’ve ever wondered how legal decisions get made at NAR, how MLS policy is shaped, or why written buyer agreements matter so much post-settlement, this episode connects the dots. Jon’s clarity, directness, and strategic thinking bring fresh energy to a legal department under pressure.
Don’t miss this important conversation—it’s required listening for anyone serious about understanding where the industry is headed next.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[Jim Trueblood is not your average broker. He built the largest Zillow and Realtor.com partnership in Indiana, scaled a 225-agent brokerage, and did it all by betting big—on himself, on leads, and on raising the darn standard.

In this candid episode, Jim joins James and Keith to break down:
How he leveraged Zillow leads to grow from solo agent to 225+ agents
The “messy middle” most team leaders never talk about
Why brick-and-mortar still matters (if you do it differently)
How he handles agents who don’t follow the playbook
The tech stack (Follow Up Boss, BombBomb, RealScout, Curaytor, Highnote) that runs it all

You’ll also hear:
His $5,000 Zillow bill panic moments
Why his wife bailed him out (more than once)
What he requires from every agent on leads
How they quietly dominate markets (then email the MLS)

This one is equal parts business masterclass, therapy session, and real estate war story.

Give your clients the competitive edge with Zillow’s Showcase. Discover how this exclusive, immersive media experience—featuring stunning photography, video, virtual staging, and SkyTour—helps agents drive more views, saves, and shares. Agents using Showcase on the majority of their listings on Zillow list 30% more homes than similar non-Showcase agents. Learn how to stand out and become the agent sellers choose.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[Phillip Cantrell, a 43-year veteran who founded Benchmark Realty in 2006, provides an elegant and systems-focused perspective on entrepreneurial growth and residential real estate leadership. His company has grown from one desk in his living room to nearly 2,000 agents across multiple states, closing approximately $5 billion in annual sales in a fee-based model.

Philip recounts the critical turning point in 2008 when the mortgage crisis hit and his largest builder client poached seven of his 13 agents, leaving him \"staring at the abyss\". This failure forced a radical pivot from a traditional 80/20 split to a fee-based model, which allowed for extreme profitability through scale. He focused on attracting experienced, high-producing agents (\"didn\'t hire newbies\") and prioritizing excellence and training over technology.

His key to overcoming adversity is the philosophical concept of \"the power in the pause\". He explains that between stimulus and response, there is a space where leaders choose their reaction. The difficulty is that humans are \"lazy\" and automatically respond without thinking. As a self-professed 98% left brain thinker, Philip systematized every aspect of the business, viewing documentation (compliance, onboarding, etc.) as crucial to the brand\'s culture and scalability.

Philip sold Benchmark to United Real Estate Group in 2020. He advises that anyone considering selling must be prepared for rigorous due diligence (\"stripped down naked\") and must ensure their systems and financials are clean. He maintains his consulting role with United (EVP of Strategy) to keep CEO Dan Duffy \"grounded\", underscoring the importance of finding partners whose strengths plug your weaknesses. His leadership philosophy is based on the speed of the leader and maintaining an internal code of ethics: \"You muck up, you\'re out of here, son\".

His book, Failing My Way to Success, details his business history (four wins, six losses) and teaches his core principle, inspired by Earl Nightingale: money is the scoreboard of your service to others. By focusing on service and meeting needs (\"help enough people get what they want\"), financial success follows naturally.

<description ><![CDATA[Phillip Cantrell, a 43-year veteran who founded Benchmark Realty in 2006, provides an elegant and systems-focused perspective on entrepreneurial growth and residential real estate leadership. His company has grown from one desk in his living room to nearly 2,000 agents across multiple states, closing approximately $5 billion in annual sales in a fee-based model.

Philip recounts the critical turning point in 2008 when the mortgage crisis hit and his largest builder client poached seven of his 13 agents, leaving him \"staring at the abyss\". This failure forced a radical pivot from a traditional 80/20 split to a fee-based model, which allowed for extreme profitability through scale. He focused on attracting experienced, high-producing agents (\"didn\'t hire newbies\") and prioritizing excellence and training over technology.

His key to overcoming adversity is the philosophical concept of \"the power in the pause\". He explains that between stimulus and response, there is a space where leaders choose their reaction. The difficulty is that humans are \"lazy\" and automatically respond without thinking. As a self-professed 98% left brain thinker, Philip systematized every aspect of the business, viewing documentation (compliance, onboarding, etc.) as crucial to the brand\'s culture and scalability.

Philip sold Benchmark to United Real Estate Group in 2020. He advises that anyone considering selling must be prepared for rigorous due diligence (\"stripped down naked\") and must ensure their systems and financials are clean. He maintains his consulting role with United (EVP of Strategy) to keep CEO Dan Duffy \"grounded\", underscoring the importance of finding partners whose strengths plug your weaknesses. His leadership philosophy is based on the speed of the leader and maintaining an internal code of ethics: \"You muck up, you\'re out of here, son\".

His book, Failing My Way to Success, details his business history (four wins, six losses) and teaches his core principle, inspired by Earl Nightingale: money is the scoreboard of your service to others. By focusing on service and meeting needs (\"help enough people get what they want\"), financial success follows naturally.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[Amy Stockberger, leader of the top team in South Dakota, provides a masterclass in building a transformational business that generates 90% repeat and referral (R&R) business. She attributes her success to solving the industry\'s critical flaw: neglecting the long-term client relationship. She coined the phrase \"serverpreneur\" to describe her agents, who focus on serving the client for life, not just for the transaction.

Amy candidly admits that her breakthrough came from a moment of extreme ownership in 2014, when she realized her old marketing billboards promising to be the local expert was \"shameful\" and lacked authentic value. The solution was the Lifetime Home Support (LHS) model, which has two financial pillars:
The VIP Club: Clients get free, lifetime access to valuable assets like moving trucks, moving supplies, tools, and party equipment (snow cone, margarita machines)—all branded with the brokerage\'s logo, making the brand omnipresent in the community.
The Vendor Model: 110 local vendors pay the brokerage $3,500 annually to be part of the program, generating $385,000 in revenue. Critically, these vendors must give the brokerage access to their employees for events, which serves as a major R&R lead source (over 80 closed units annually).

Amy\'s brokerage culture is highly focused on systemization and efficiency, encapsulated in her concept of \"SAD\" (Systemize, Automate, Delegate, or Delete). She has automated roughly 60% of their workflow. Her most aggressive mandate is that if employees are not using AI first, they are being \"irresponsibly unproductive\" and are not aligned with core values. This includes their new internal AI agent, Sammy, built within Microsoft Teams to eliminate the \"search spiral\" and streamline administrative questions.

Give your clients the competitive edge with Zillow’s Showcase. Discover how this exclusive, immersive media experience—featuring stunning photography, video, virtual staging, and SkyTour—helps agents drive more views, saves, and shares. Agents using Showcase on the majority of their listings on Zillow list 30% more homes than similar non-Showcase agents. Learn how to stand out and become the agent sellers choose.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[Kris Lindahl, CEO of Kris Lindahl Real Estate, is a former teacher who founded his independent brokerage in 2018, leading it to billions of dollars in closed transactions and creating a brand known by millions. Kris traces his success back to his teaching background and the profound challenges he overcame, noting that trauma often drives the emotional intelligence and intuition seen in high-performance leaders. He emphasizes that his mission is measured by impact and that agents who avoid telling their stories are being \"selfish\" because sharing personal truth gives others permission and power to succeed.

Kris details the genesis of his \"Arms Out\" brand, which symbolizes opening up and inviting others into the mentorship he once received. His brand success is rooted in unapologetic authenticity; the person he is in the community is the person he is professionally, avoiding the \"heavy work\" of maintaining a persona.

His marketing engine started with his disastrous first attempts at video, which he calls the \"hostage video.\" He spent two months making excuses—buying cheap green screens, lights, and suits—before finally publishing. He realized he was not afraid to start the work, but afraid to publish and face rejection. His solution was to never stop, building software to automate the distribution of hundreds of low-quality, city-specific videos per day to monopolize Google search results. He uses the constant feedback and market chatter to instantly record TV and radio spots that meet consumers with real-time challenges.

For staying focused amid constant distraction and criticism, Kris leans on his philosophy that \"how they feel about me is their business, not my business\". He is protective of his time for his family and uses his phone\'s social media folders, renamed \"value,\" to constantly remind himself that his mission is giving, not taking. His final piece of advice for building at scale is to invest time and money in finding a mentor who has already made the mistakes you are about to make, allowing you to go faster.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[Nykia Wright, CEO of the National Association of Realtors (NAR), provides an unfiltered and candid look at the organizational turnaround she has led since becoming full-time CEO. She notes that the probability of a successful turnaround significantly decreases after 18 to 24 months, underscoring the urgency of the past year\'s work. To date, she has replaced nearly a third of the workforce and hired eight new executives, including a Chief Data Officer, a new General Counsel (John McCloskey), and a leader dedicated to state and local associations. Nykia summarizes her hiring philosophy with the quote: \"leaders hire D players, D players hire F players, right? And so I hire A players\". She describes her role as the \"hardest thing that I\'ve ever done. But it is one of the most rewarding things that I\'ve ever done\".

The newly approved strategic plan is based on extensive feedback, including focus groups and surveys of over 150,000 members. She was \"sobered\" by the initial findings, noting that members consistently demanded a rebuild of trust and transparency, feeling the old NAR was \"dysfunctional, financially undisciplined, lacks transparency, and wasn\'t accountable\".

The strategic plan is structured around three complexity-driven areas: Industry and Economic Pressures (like low inventory and high rates), Stakeholder Expectations (like transparency and a clear value proposition), and Organizational Constraints (like governance and budgeting).

Nykia emphasizes that execution is driven by a focus on \"the pace\". She is managing 75 in-flight projects, each with an executive sponsor, milestones, and a dedicated budget allocated with a priority. A key initiative is the plan to create and mediate legal forums around the country, moving tough industry conversations out of private venues into an antitrust-compliant room where NAR is a collaborative partner. Her top priorities for the brokerage community are budget transformation, de-risking the portfolio, and governance.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[Dan Foody, CEO and co-founder of Cloze, shares his journey from a master\'s in electrical engineering at Cornell to becoming a leader in long-term relationship software, initially serving lawyers and ministers. His entry into real estate in 2019 led to a stark realization about agent efficiency: nearly 88% of conversations agents have never make it into their database. Furthermore, only about a third of the contacts in a typical CRM have been contacted within the last year.

Dan attributes this failure to a fundamental flaw in traditional CRM design, which forces the agent to manually enter data. Cloze solves this by mining communication history (email, phone, text, WhatsApp) to create a comprehensive \"shadow view\" of every contact in an agent\'s extended network, ready for immediate action.

He warns agents about the crucial concept of the \"five-day window\": if the average sphere agent contacts their people every ten days, Zillow has a five-day gap in which to identify a potential buyer/seller and sell the lead back to the agent. To counter this, communication must be frequent and personalized. A simple, empathetic text has shown a conversion rate 200 times better than a generic newsletter.

Dan sees the future of the CRM in AI-driven personalization. AI\'s core role is to identify what is important to a customer in the moment—be it a life event or a property issue—allowing the agent to reach out with topical, relevant content, which is a massive advantage over the \"nurture spam\" of institutional competitors like Rocket.

On the competition, Dan views Zillow and Rocket\'s \"closed ecosystem\" attempts as insidious but beatable. His final advice is that the most critical, sustainable differentiator for any agent or brokerage is their personal relationship data. The highest defense against competition is maximizing that human relationship, which technology must facilitate by removing complexity and constantly reminding the agent of opportunities. Agents should also be aware that they retain 100% control over their Cloze data; if they leave a brokerage, they keep their database.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[Parker Pemberton and Liz Rein (a former attorney) of Pemberton Real Estate detail their unique and successful trajectory in the Minnesota market. Their firm, recently transitioned from a large team to an independent brokerage, is closing 2,200 transactions and $829 million in volume in 2024.

Parker\'s personal story is one of resilience and failure. After his professional golf career ended, he initially failed in real estate (2011). He was forced to start a lawn care business, which taught him the critical lesson of sales and lead generation through relentless door-knocking. This led to his second, successful return to real estate where the mindset \"all clicked\". Liz, meanwhile, left a 10-year law career due to its adversarial nature and joined Parker first as an admin, to find a way to make her personal and work life \"feel like extensions of each other\".

Their most unconventional decision was moving from a stable, large team (193 agents) within another firm to launching their own brokerage, even making the move right after the Compass-Anywhere acquisition news broke. They quickly adopted an \"elective services\" model, which allows agents to choose and pay for services like transaction coordination, marketing, and video production on an a la carte basis. This turns support departments into internal profit centers. This model rewards high-producing agents by allowing them to keep top commission splits to high-producing agents while retaining full infrastructure. They emphasize that agents are willing to pay more for convenience and service rather than opting for the cheapest competitor.

On the topic of online leads, Parker directly addresses the common agent complaint with the company\'s famous internal motto: \"The leads don’t suck, you suck\". He argues that leads are an opportunity to start the sales process faster and that poor conversion is an agent failure. Their strategy is to flip the business mix from being primarily company-lead driven to agent sphere/past client. They achieve this by moving leads to the agent\'s Sphere of Influence (SOI) after 12 months, rewarding long-term client nurturing. Their final focus is on AI, where they coach agents to master findability on ChatGPT, believing that this is the new frontier for lead generation and brand trust.

Discover how this exclusive, immersive media experience—featuring stunning photography, video, virtual staging, and SkyTour—helps agents drive more views, saves, and shares.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[Beverly W. Jackson, Vice President of Brand and Product Marketing at Zillow, shares her experience leading marketing efforts for one of the world\'s most recognizable consumer brands, drawing on a 25-year career that includes roles at Twitter, Activision, MGM Resorts, and the Grammys. Beverly\'s role at Zillow is focused on finding the critical balance between the consumer\'s aspirational search (\"dreaming\") and the transactional reality of the agent-led process. She stresses that marketing must be the voice of the customer and that Zillow does tech so that agents and brokers can do real estate. She credits Zillow\'s successful advertising, like the \"Journey Home\" campaign, to focusing on the client\'s emotional journey and subtly positioning the agent as the indispensable character who clears the path and manages the chaos.

A core theme of the conversation is the development and power of storytelling. Beverly explains that authenticity is the secret sauce, urging agents to use their own voice to tell stories they know and feel. She distinguishes between data (raw numbers) and insights (the story told by the data), advising agents to drill into local market data provided by Zillow for their own unique content. Furthermore, she highlights the reality that home-buying is often a group decision, with the agent having to navigate the expectations of the buyer, parents, social media influencers, and Pinterest boards (\"Beth comes with dad, Beth comes with YouTube\").

Beverly provides agents with a direct, tactical blueprint for building a digital brand, emphasizing that agents are living these stories every day and owe it to themselves to become their own authors and narrators. Her actionable advice includes: 1) Invest in affordable tools (tripod, microphone, smartphone camera); 2) Identify your superpower and double down on it; and 3) Be consistent across platforms, using the same name/handle everywhere for better SEO. She urges agents to overcome the fear of public vulnerability, reminding them that they are talking to the \"handful of people that need to hear you,\" not everyone.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[George Laughton, founder of The Laughton Team, begins by candidly recounting his start in real estate, highlighting his remarkably poor timing as an investor in late 2006, buying three rentals with Option-ARM financing just before the crash. This failure forced a pivot into REO and short sales in the turbulent 2007-2008 market. He successfully transitioned his operationally-minded REO team into a traditional sales model by 2013, focusing heavily on lead generation and CRM implementation. Today, The Laughton Team has 200 agents primarily in Arizona, averaging about $900 million in annual volume and around 2,000 transactions.

A core principle of Laughton\'s leadership is the constant anticipation of market shifts, employing a strategy of firing \"bullets than cannonballs\" to test and refine business pillars. His mindset is one of abundance, famously viewing the iBuyer phenomenon in Phoenix (its epicenter) as an opportunity. His strategy was to \"make friends with them\" (Opendoor, Zillow Offers) and position his team to capture the high volume of seller leads generated from their marketing.

The team\'s structure is built on interdependence, rejecting the traditional independent contractor model. Laughton seeks agents with a \"strong desire to win\" (economic competitiveness). His management philosophy involves scaling into multiple satellite \"pods\" with a sales leader-to-agent ratio in the 30-40 range, which he considers the breaking point for quality connection and retention.

He shares proprietary systems for the benefit of the listeners, notably the Reverse Offer Playbook. This strategy is used to combat canceled and aged listings by generating a seller-initiated offer to prospective buyers and their agents who have shown interest. His final advice centers on the non-negotiable need for consistent investment in coaching and development. He argues that a strong P&L-based investment in self-development is the true measure of a top performer, not a cost to be cut.

Give your clients the competitive edge with Zillow’s Showcase. Discover how this exclusive, immersive media experience—featuring stunning photography, video, virtual staging, and SkyTour—helps agents drive more views, saves, and shares. Agents using Showcase on the majority of their listings on Zillow list 30% more homes than similar non-Showcase agents. Learn how to stand out and become the agent sellers choose.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[Allan Dalton, a near 50-year veteran of the real estate industry and former CEO of realtor.com (2002–2007), delivers an impassioned and unfiltered critique of the industry\'s failure to properly communicate its value. Dalton, who was also recruited by the Boston Celtics and donated a kidney to his wife, draws on a lifetime of experience to challenge conventional wisdom.

His core argument centers on the catastrophic impact of outdated language. He argues that phrases like \"past client\" make you a \"past agent\". He condemns the continued use of \"listing presentation\"—which should be a \"marketing proposal\"—and the term \"comps\" for making real estate agents look like the \"confederation of dunces\". He asserts that the public believes homes sell based on \"market\" or \"buyer\" demand because agents fail to articulate that the agent\'s marketing strategy and negotiation influence the price.

Recounting his time at realtor.com and the pivotal moment Zillow launched. He candidly admits he compared Zillow to a \"Carney Barker\" who would guess your weight on a pier. His concern was that the Zestimate commoditized the home by asserting value could be determined before the realtor\'s value was inserted. He details how he resigned his position after the board resisted his innovative idea for a Real Estate Financial Planning System, believing the industry was too resistant to long-term advisory services.

The conversation concludes with his ultimate advice for agents: stop treating your work like a business (which has customers) and treat it like a professional practice (which has clients). This mental shift is necessary to establish value, influence, and relevance before a transactional need arises. He advocates for the future role of the \"Certified Real Estate Consultant\".

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[Ryan O\'Neill runs one of the most successful real estate teams in the country — and he does it with kindness, clarity, and consistency. In this episode, James and Keith sit down with The Minnesota Real Estate Team founder to unpack how he scaled a 215-agent team to 1,600+ sides and $621M in volume in 2024.

What makes Ryan different? He doesn’t recruit — he attracts. He doesn’t need a brokerage — because he’s built a system that delivers real value to agents and clients alike. You’ll learn how he approaches real estate lead generation, why he embraces AI and multiple tech platforms, and how he stays grounded with a human-first mindset in a tech-driven world.
If you’ve ever wondered what it looks like to lead with integrity in real estate (while still dominating your market), this episode is for you.

Plus, now you can supercharge your business at Unlock 2025 — the premiere industry event for growth-minded pros like you.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[Is organized real estate \"going nuclear\"?

Matt Widdows, Founder and Executive Chairman of HomeSmart, joins James and Keith for a raw, real discussion about what\'s really happening in real estate today. From Zillow\'s new ChatGPT app and AI-powered brokerage tools to private listing networks and consolidation chaos, this episode doesn’t hold back.

You’ll hear what Matt is building with AI at scale across 26,000+ agents—and why he believes brokerages that fail to integrate tech will be left behind. We dive into the Compass and Anywhere merger, the fragmentation of the MLS system, and how those changes are reshaping everything from listings to lawsuits.

More than just buzzwords, this episode explains how AI is redefining agent productivity, client experience, and what leadership will look like moving forward. Matt lays out a 5-year vision of where this is all headed—and the three most important things every agent should be doing right now to stay relevant.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[Tony Hanson and Lucas Mudrey, co-founders of Paracle (a Greek word meaning \"to come alongside, to advise, and to counsel\"), provide an energetic and highly tactical blueprint for building a successful brokerage. The company spans the Carolinas with five offices, over 400 agents, and does approximately $1 billion in annual sales. Lucas, a former attorney, and Tony, a real estate veteran, built the company with a lead generation-focused model, spending approximately $500,000 per month to acquire highly predictable business. This approach was chosen specifically to eliminate the \"yo-yo\" effect and inconsistencies associated with relying solely on agents\' Sphere of Influence (SOI).

The core of their operational philosophy is the \"Rhino Mindset\"—a framework that categorizes people as either \"rhinos\" (charging massively after goals and taking immediate action) or \"cows\" (blaming others and avoiding action). This culture is instilled from day one, requiring every new hire to read \"Rhinoceros Success\". They teach agents to calculate their worth, breaking down a $1 million income into $520 an hour to highlight the cost of \"cow activities\" (non-revenue-producing tasks). They aggressively charged through the 2020-2023 market downturn, which Tony calls the \"separation season,\" leading to 30% year-over-year growth.

Paracle\'s system is built to minimize the administrative burden (\"dumb tax\") and maximize lead conversion. Their tech stack includes Follow Up Boss, Maverick RE, and specialized tools like Texting Betty. A major innovation is their deployment of BrokerBot, an AI system that houses all company forms, compliance, and training to instantly answer redundant agent questions, freeing leaders for coaching. Lucas challenges the industry\'s focus on pre-qualification, arguing that it is \"rude\" and that every inbound lead is a \"relationship opportunity\", worth a potential $120,000 lifetime value. Their final advice for scaling is to prioritize the culture and people, as human capital, not money, is the biggest constraint to growth.

With unmatched consumer insights and integrated tools, Zillow gives agents a daily competitive edge. Simplify workflows, gain powerful data, scale smarter and serve clients better than ever. Plus, now you can supercharge your business at Unlock 2025 — the premiere industry event for growth-minded pros like you. From scripts to systems, you’ll leave Unlock 2025 equipped with the exact tools and strategies to grow your business faster.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[Errol Samuelson and Josh Weisberg join us to discuss Zillow\'s new app built along with ChatGPT, a platform with over 800 million weekly users. Josh, who leads AI across Zillow and has a background in early-stage technology from Apple and Microsoft, explains that OpenAI views ChatGPT as an \"operating system\" that can run specialized apps, much like an iPhone. Errol emphasizes that Zillow was honored to be asked to be an early partner to demonstrate this new capability.

We address the significant industry \"freak out\" regarding MLS compliance head-on. Detailingthe painstaking process they undertook, which involved internal experts (including former MLS CEOs) and external MLS attorneys, to ensure the app respects all IDX display rules and protects data. Emphasizing a core agreement with OpenAI: Zillow will not share any data to train their models, and the experience is contained within a Zillow-controlled app, making it analogous to running the Zillow app on an iPhone. They are not sharing MCPs (AI equivalent of an API) to their data with other AI companies to prevent misuse.

Josh also provides a fascinating look at the future of search, explaining that they are moving from AI that just answers questions to \"Agentic AI\"—AI that can reason, coordinate actions, and act on an agent\'s behalf. This technology can do things like automate personalized client messages (Smart Messages in Follow-Up Boss) and create interactive property experiences like SkyTor, which uses drone video to create a dynamic, video-game-like exploration of a home\'s surroundings. They also reveal Zillow has open-sourced its Fair Housing Classifiers, a series of AI models designed to monitor and flag potential fair housing violations in search prompts.

Errol and Josh agree with the hosts that the industry must ask if its current MLS policies are inhibiting innovation. They stress that the pace of technology is only accelerating, and if the industry doesn\'t adopt and streamline its rules, it risks getting lapped by consumers already using these new tools. They conclude by reinforcing that the MLS is the trusted gold standard for data integrity, and the goal is to responsibly embrace new mediums like ChatGPT to give those 800 million users access to that gold standard.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[Greg Geilman, co-founder and CEO of DOMO Real Estate, shares his highly unusual origin story, revealing he got his real estate license in 2006 but made the radical decision to quit his stable tech job to become a full-time agent in 2010. This was during the Great Recession, and his former boss literally laughed at his choice. However, this calculated risk proved successful, and he later co-founded DOMO Real Estate, a brokerage focused on the high-end South Bay of Los Angeles, including Manhattan Beach and Hermosa Beach. His success continues today; in 2024, his team generated a goal of $200 million and hit $168 million in volume.

Greg details his strategy for winning in the competitive luxury space, which is built on a tech advantage and authentic culture. Coming from a technology background, he relies heavily on Pay-Per-Click (PPC) advertising, a channel he believes is still wide open for new agents. He dismisses the idea that it\'s too late to enter the PPC game, noting that new offices can start small, with budgets as low as $1,000 a month. He and his co-founder focus on building a sustainable, profitable business by running incredibly lean: the brokerage aims for $200 million in sales with just two main staff members, plus a virtual assistant and a part-time fractional CTO to manage tech integrations.

A core part of DOMO\'s success is its unique approach to agent performance and retention. Greg admits he is \"afraid of scale\" and fiercely protects the firm\'s authentic, helpful culture. To enforce accountability in a way that aligns with his non-militant style, he implemented a simple, effective system: agents must make a minimum of 50 calls a week to anyone to qualify for leads the following week. This focuses on habit formation. He emphasizes that the core of the business is the human nervous system, not data, and that by providing \"approachable luxury\", the firm helps people feel safe during the stressful transaction.

With unmatched consumer insights and integrated tools, Zillow gives agents a daily competitive edge. Simplify workflows, gain powerful data, scale smarter and serve clients better than ever. Plus, now you can supercharge your business at Unlock 2025 — the premiere industry event for growth-minded pros like you. From scripts to systems, you’ll leave Unlock 2025 equipped with the exact tools and strategies to grow your business faster.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[The Compass Anywhere acquisition is one of the biggest stories in real estate—and its impact is only beginning to unfold. In this episode, we are joined by Rob Hahn and Greg Robertson (from the Industry Relations podcast) to unpack what this game-changing merger really means.

Our conversation pivots to the existential question of how the major portals will react. Rob lays out several possibilities for Zillow, including \"total conventional war\" and the \"nuclear war option,\" where Zillow enters the brokerage or franchise business to protect its dominance. Agreeing that the private listings program is a core component of this strategic move. We debate the critical nature of agent \"breakage\". If Compass executes poorly, the resulting agent flight could undermine the deal; conversely, if successful, it forces competitors like KW, Douglas Elliman, and others to \"at least think about, if not implement private listings,\" initiating a destructive \"arms race\".

Our discussion extends to other portals: Greg dismisses Rocket\'s end-to-end solution, arguing that mortgage companies will always pivot away from long-term real estate solutions to pursue short-term refinancing booms. We also addresses Homes.com, viewing it as currently in a \"messy middle\". Speculating on a potential alliance between Compass and Homes.com, where Compass would drive traffic to a new portal in exchange for cash, a move that could address Compass\'s cash position. Ultimately, Concluding that while no one knows the exact outcome, the non-negotiable step for agents is to stop focusing on the industry drama and focus on client fundamentals.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[Anthony Djon, head of Anthony Djon Luxury Real Estate, provides an unfiltered look into the operations of his 100-agent \"team bridge\" in the Detroit tri-county area, which closes over a thousand transactions and generates more than $50 million in volume monthly. He defines a \"teamerage\" as a large team that operates with the full system support of a brokerage, feeding leads to all its agents. Anthony attributes a significant portion of his success to being the largest partner of both Zillow Flex and Realtor.com in Michigan, acknowledging that he grows by locking in serious lead flow from these companies. His mantra for growth is \"low and slow\" and being so busy you can\'t handle the lead flow before you scale, warning that rushing the process is the reason most new teams fail.

His team structure is meticulously organized, utilizing a military-style model broken into units of up to 40 agents, each led by a \"Team Captain\" who is the \"best of the brand\". Each unit is supported by its own transaction coordinator, marketing, and tech personnel, ensuring specialized support. The core of his lead conversion process is strict \"floor time\"—structured shifts where agents must be in the office, focused on receiving leads, and responding within milliseconds. He combats the initial speed and consistency mistakes agents make by implementing a rigorous follow-up protocol: hitting a new lead every day for the first week, and then once a week until the client buys or clearly asks to be left alone.

Anthony champions a leadership style based on collaborative accountability, where he is the \"dad you\'ve always wanted to have,\" not a fear-driven commander. He believes in Jack Welch\'s philosophy of allowing for and learning from mistakes, rather than punishing them. He leverages a sophisticated tech stack for quality control, including Follow Up Boss, Maverick, Fellow, and Shiloh, which uses AI to psychoanalyze and grade calls, removing the emotion from coaching. In a moment of vulnerability, he confesses his biggest operational mistake was neglecting his past client database. He has since rectified this by creating a client retention department focused on nurturing relationships through personalized holiday outreach.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[Joining us on this episode is Michael Valdes, CEO of LPT International and President of Aperture, to share his remarkable, globe-trotting career, beginning with a 10-year stint as an investment banker before entering real estate in 2004. Having quickly found success by running a luxury real estate team that grew to over $430 million in sales with just eight agents. This experience eventually led him to the corporate side, where he spent five years in London building Sotheby\'s European network and later ran global expansion for all of Realogy\'s brands. Michael explains that his new company, LPT International, has seen a meteoric rise, ranking among the top brokerages by transactions in just three years and preparing to go public next year.

We also touch on Aperture and how from day one they were able to launch in 18 U.S. states and four international destinations. A core aspect of the brand\'s philosophy is ensuring agents earn the right to carry the Aperture card by meeting a minimum production level, a stark contrast to many other luxury brands. This strict qualification process, includes a growth path for agents who don\'t yet qualify, as they can join LPT, receive training, and work their way up to the luxury brand.

We also get insights on the challenges and opportunities in the current market. Many agents who entered the business during the COVID-era boom are not prepared for a cyclical market and may be leaving too soon. With a belief consolidation will continue, with independent brokerages facing increased pressure due to technology and operating costs. On the other hand, the immense opportunity with AI, which Michael views not as a threat but as a gift that gives agents \"time back\" by making everyday tasks more efficient.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[Levi Rodgers, Founder/Owner of the Levi Rodgers Real Estate Group, provides a deeply personal and compelling look at his life and business. He recounts his military career, which began when he enlisted at 17, eventually leading him to become an Army Green Beret. In 2009, during his last deployment in Afghanistan, his vehicle struck an IED; he was the sole survivor among four men under his command. After suffering severe physical and psychological trauma, Levi transitioned out of the military and found himself at a low point. His life changed because of a real estate agent who gave him \"30 seconds of honesty\" by advising him against buying a double-wide trailer, a moment that resulted in him later coming into more money than he had ever had, sparking his entry into real estate.

The Levi Rodgers Real Estate Group is structured around military discipline and systems, a necessity for managing nearly 300 agents across San Antonio, Austin, and Colleen, who closed nearly 1,800 transactions totaling $600 million in 2024. Levi employs a lean staff of 15 and focuses on creating systems around agent behavior, rather than trying to fight it. A core competitive advantage is his in-house desktop appraiser, a resource originally used for Zillow Offers, who provides a full, 30-page desktop appraisal for every listing appointment. This strategy, along with having an appraiser on staff for rebuttals, is designed to eliminate the price objection before it even starts and win more listings.

Levi discusses his firm\'s deep investment in technology and mentorship. The customer journey, from internet click to closing, is meticulously mapped, utilizing a tech stack that includes Follow-Up Boss, Slack, and Shiloh AI. Levi is a co-founder of Shiloh, an AI tool born out of his frustration with agents and managers not wanting to listen to recorded phone calls. He emphasizes that AI won\'t replace agents, but agents using AI will replace those who aren\'t, noting a recent success where a simple prompt to a paid AI found a buyer a home that fit a strict $1,400 monthly payment requirement. For leadership and personal growth, he relies on a formalized military tool called the PACE Plan (Primary, Alternate, Contingency, Emergency) to manage complex decisions. His ultimate advice for agents is to stop overthinking and take action, as success is found by positioning yourself in the right room.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[In this episode, we break down Compass acquiring Anywhere Real Estate in an all-stock deal. We look at the initial analysis of the deal\'s terms, potential impacts, and challenges, based on the limited information available. We share what this acquisition could mean for the combined company, its agents, and the broader real estate industry.

The deal is an all-stock trade in which Anywhere shareholders will hold 22% of the new company, and Compass shareholders will hold 78%. This acquisition would create a company with an estimated $10 billion market cap, combining approximately 340,000 agents globally, with 210,000 in the U.S. alone. This would account for roughly 25% of all U.S. real estate transactions. The combined company would also bring together Compass\'s brokerage model with Anywhere\'s various franchise brands, such as Coldwell Banker, Century 21, and Sotheby\'s, creating a \"choose your own adventure\" model for agents. The deal also gives Compass access to Anywhere\'s ancillary services like Title, Escrow, Mortgage, and Relocation, which are crucial for profitability in the brokerage business.

We break down the risks and challenges facing the new entity, which is expected to close by the end of 2026. A key concern is the combined company\'s substantial debt, which Keith notes has a debt-to-equity ratio of 4.4, comparable to airline debt during the COVID-19 pandemic. James expresses skepticism about the projected $225 million in net cost savings from redundancies and synergies, noting that Anywhere has already been streamlined. This financial pressure means the new company would need to maintain and grow its agent count to handle the debt load. The hosts also highlight the \"breakage\" risk, where agents and franchisees may choose to leave the company due to the acquisition. This is especially relevant given the contrasting public stances on issues like private listings, with some Anywhere agents having been vocal critics of the practice. While acknowledging that most people may not take action, the hosts believe that some will \"vote with their feet\" and that this agent churn will be a key indicator of the deal\'s success.

Keith and James believe the acquisition is an aggressive strategic move by Compass to \"go to war\" with its competitors. They see this as a potential catalyst for an \"arms race\" where other large brokerages will feel pressured to create their own private listing networks to stay competitive. Speculating that this could lead to further consolidation among brokerages and a push for major players to create their own MLSs to gain control over data and politics. James notes that this move places Zillow in a precarious position. Zillow is currently in litigation with Compass and is already at odds with the industry over private listings. The acquisition of Anywhere, a major Zillow customer, significantly raises the stakes, as Zillow would be competing with a company that controls a quarter of the U.S. market. The hosts warn that if pushed too far, Zillow\'s immense market dominance and financial resources could allow it to bypass its current business model and become a full-blown brokerage, a move that would fundamentally alter the industry.

<description ><![CDATA[In this episode, we break down Compass acquiring Anywhere Real Estate in an all-stock deal. We look at the initial analysis of the deal\'s terms, potential impacts, and challenges, based on the limited information available. We share what this acquisition could mean for the combined company, its agents, and the broader real estate industry.

The deal is an all-stock trade in which Anywhere shareholders will hold 22% of the new company, and Compass shareholders will hold 78%. This acquisition would create a company with an estimated $10 billion market cap, combining approximately 340,000 agents globally, with 210,000 in the U.S. alone. This would account for roughly 25% of all U.S. real estate transactions. The combined company would also bring together Compass\'s brokerage model with Anywhere\'s various franchise brands, such as Coldwell Banker, Century 21, and Sotheby\'s, creating a \"choose your own adventure\" model for agents.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[We have an unfiltered conversation with Byron Lazine, CEO of Broke Agent Media (BAM) and leader of one of Connecticut\'s top real estate teams. Byron\'s journey is a tale of resilience, beginning as a young submarine mechanic who bought three houses just before the 2008 mortgage crisis. He recounts facing bankruptcy, a pivotal moment that instilled a relentless drive to succeed. This experience fueled his decision to get a real estate license and embark on a mission to build a \"comeback story.\" Byron credits his early success to being an early adopter of social media, using platforms like Facebook Live to build a brand and win listings when his competition was still focused on traditional newspaper ads. This willingness to go against the grain became a hallmark of his career.

Byron reveals the unconventional path he took to build his team, explaining that he \"built it backwards.\" Instead of hiring agents and scrambling to support them, he first obsessed over creating a comprehensive training program and a clear blueprint for success. This approach allowed him to offer three core, non-negotiable values to his agents: leads, training, and support. This foundational system enabled his team to grow rapidly and consistently, becoming the number one team for listings sold in Connecticut since 2022. He also shares the origin story of BAM, explaining how a desire to create something valuable for free with co-founder Eric Simon evolved into a successful media company built on humor and authenticity.

On a tactical level, Byron provides a no-nonsense guide for agents and team leaders looking to scale. His core mantra is \"speed on revenue-producing activities and slow on the expenses.\" He warns that spending money on leads without having a system in place for rapid follow-up is a waste of money, likening it to \"throwing cash out the car window.\" He stresses that speed to lead is paramount, with his team aiming for a response time under one minute. He also provides a glimpse into his thoughts on AI, believing that it will soon revolutionize back-office functions like transaction coordination and quality control, allowing agents to become more efficient and effective at a scale never before possible.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[Chris Kelly, the new President and CEO of HomeServices of America, provides a rare glimpse into the mind of a top industry leader. He recounts his journey from a real estate attorney in Kansas City to leading one of the world\'s largest real estate companies. His career took a decisive turn when a Cabo trip with a real estate team introduced him to the business side of the industry, leading him to join ReeseNichols in 2007, just months before the housing crisis hit. He describes the current market environment as the \"oddest\" he has ever experienced, a turbulent period marked by a rapid-fire series of events that have compressed a decade\'s worth of change into just a few years.

Chris shares a foundational lesson in leadership he learned from his mentor, Jerry Reese: \"When in doubt, tell the truth.\" He emphasizes that a leader\'s chief responsibility is to communicate transparently and consistently with their team, especially during a crisis, to prevent people from assuming \"nothing is happening.\" He also voices concerns about the industry\'s public image, arguing that professionals often \"undersell what we actually do\" and unintentionally misrepresent their earnings. This misrepresentation, he believes, has contributed to a negative public narrative and has devalued the critical role of the real estate professional in the eyes of consumers.

The conversation turns to the future of the industry, where Chris highlights the growing threat of \"closed ecosystems\" being created by companies like Rocket through strategic acquisitions. He advises agents and brokers to be increasingly mindful of who they introduce to their clients\' world, as those introductions could jeopardize the long-term client relationship. He proposes a simple solution to the housing affordability crisis: raising the capital gains exemption cap on home sales and tying it to inflation to encourage existing homeowners to sell. In a final piece of advice that challenges conventional wisdom, Chris urges professionals to \"do less.\" He explains that focusing on just a few key priorities, rather than trying to accomplish a hundred things at once, is the surest way to achieve next-level success.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[In this episode, Justin Havre, a globally recognized leader of one of eXp Realty\'s top teams shares his journey, beginning 20 years ago in real estate after a background in tech and being told by a teacher that only a small percentage of new agents survive. His initial strategy was simple yet powerful: obsessing over online lead generation, a practice that led him to reinvest at least 25% of his commissions back into marketing. This consistent commitment to building a long-term asset eventually led him to acquire the highly coveted domain name, Calgary.com, a strategic move that cemented his online dominance and became a cornerstone of his business.

Justin provides a deep dive into the operational structure of his team, which consists of over 80 agents and 20 support staff. He emphasizes that scaling a business requires a highly structured organization with clear leadership roles for sales, operations, and training. At the center of his philosophy is a belief that training is the foundation of an agent\'s success, viewing every client interaction as a \"performance\" that requires constant practice and development. A key element of his team\'s culture is a deep-seated commitment to accountability, which he describes as the \"highest form of love.\" He ensures this through a transparent team member agreement that clearly outlines expectations from the start, leaving no room for misunderstanding or emotion.

We also get into Justin\'s long-term marketing and client-retention strategies. He cautions that SEO is a multi-year investment, and the biggest mistake is giving up too soon. He diversifies his lead generation with radio, TV, and billboard advertising, all aimed at building brand trust and recognition. He also discusses his calculation of a client\'s lifetime value, revealing it can be over $1.5 million, which motivates a deep investment in long-tail nurturing through events and check-ins. To secure more referrals and positive online reviews, he shares a secret: asking for a five-star review at the \"high point of the transaction,\" such as when a seller puts a \"sold\" sign in their yard, rather than at the end when stress is high.

<description ><![CDATA[In this episode, Justin Havre, a globally recognized leader of one of eXp Realty\'s top teams shares his journey, beginning 20 years ago in real estate after a background in tech and being told by a teacher that only a small percentage of new agents survive. His initial strategy was simple yet powerful: obsessing over online lead generation, a practice that led him to reinvest at least 25% of his commissions back into marketing. This consistent commitment to building a long-term asset eventually led him to acquire the highly coveted domain name, Calgary.com, a strategic move that cemented his online dominance and became a cornerstone of his business.

Justin provides a deep dive into the operational structure of his team, which consists of over 80 agents and 20 support staff. He emphasizes that scaling a business requires a highly structured organization with clear leadership roles for sales, operations, and training. At the center of his philosophy is a belief that training is the foundation of an agent\'s success, viewing every client interaction as a \"performance\" that requires constant practice and development. A key element of his team\'s culture is a deep-seated commitment to accountability, which he describes as the \"highest form of love.\" He ensures this through a transparent team member agreement that clearly outlines expectations from the start, leaving no room for misunderstanding or emotion.

We also get into Justin\'s long-term marketing and client-retention strategies. He cautions that SEO is a multi-year investment, and the biggest mistake is giving up too soon. He diversifies his lead generation with radio, TV, and billboard advertising, all aimed at building brand trust and recognition. He also discusses his calculation of a client\'s lifetime value, revealing it can be over $1.5 million, which motivates a deep investment in long-tail nurturing through events and check-ins. To secure more referrals and positive online reviews, he shares a secret: asking for a five-star review at the \"high point of the transaction,\" such as when a seller puts a \"sold\" sign in their yard, rather than at the end when stress is high.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[Colin Allen, executive director of the American Property Owners Alliance (APOA), provides a rare, dispassionate analysis of Washington, D.C.\'s political ecosystem and its impact on real estate. Drawing from his experience in the Newt Gingrich era and the Bush administration, he explains the \"holistic nature of policy making\" and how a sober view is necessary to predict outcomes rather than getting lost in the emotion of the issues. Colin points out that the current political volatility is driven by two main factors: economic dislocations caused by technology displacing labor and a proliferation of fragmented information channels that make it harder for people to have a shared point of view. This has shifted power away from centralized institutions like Congress and into the hands of outside groups and social media.

The discussion pivots to a detailed breakdown of federal efforts to address the housing supply crisis. Colin contrasts the approaches of the Biden and Trump administrations, noting that while Democrats focused on price controls and getting investors out of the market, both sides are now exploring solutions such as tax credits for developers, streamlining zoning laws, and utilizing federal land for housing. He highlights a significant bipartisan effort in the Senate Banking Committee, which passed a bill with unanimous support to address the supply issue, proving that policymakers on both sides of the aisle recognize the problem. However, he cautions that these federal actions are limited and that the most impactful solutions lie at the state and local levels.

Colin also addresses other pressing issues, including the rising cost of homeowners insurance and a potential bipartisan solution to reform manufactured housing financing, which could unlock a new wave of affordable homeownership. In the financial sector, he explains a policy change that allows for the use of \"alternative data\" to be used in credit reports, a move that could help more people become first-time homebuyers. In his final advice, he urges real estate professionals to be \"informed and active,\" arguing that being engaged in advocacy is an important business practice that can influence policy and prevent a regulatory \"heavy hand\" from impacting the industry.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[Charlie Wills, a former Division 1 athlete, has translated the discipline of sports into his real estate career, building a business where an astounding 96% to 98% of his transactions come from referrals. He shares his core philosophy: that success is built on a foundation of genuine, deep relationships, not on chasing shiny new technology or buying leads. Charlie’s approach is a stark contrast to the modern lead-generation model. He details his \"Priority Pyramid\" system, which categorizes his network into tiers and guides his communication strategy. He emphasizes that the most successful agents aren\'t just good at sales; they\'re masters of human connection.

A significant part of Charlie\'s story is his commitment to community through the men\'s charity he co-founded. He explains how this initiative, which provides substantial gifts to local organizations, has not only been a source of personal fulfillment but has also created a depth of relationship with influential people he might not have met otherwise. Charlie highlights that this philanthropy is not a business strategy but an organic extension of his values, which naturally builds trust and strengthens his network. This work earned him the prestigious Good Neighbor Award from the National Association of Realtors, a testament to how giving back can be intertwined with professional life in a meaningful way.

Charlie’s system is a powerful lesson in consistency, accountability, and mindset. He shares his daily \"greatness tracker,\" a simple, non-digital tool he uses to ensure he is consistently connecting with his sphere. He explains that his discipline comes from a belief in \"doing the thing\" and not overthinking it, a lesson he learned from his father’s \"unbreakable\" mental toughness. For agents looking to improve their business, Charlie\'s advice is clear: stop looking for a magic formula, embrace a consistent process, and actively seek to be in rooms where you are being challenged and pulled to a higher level. He believes that people do business with those they know, like, and trust, and that you must actively build that trust to win in real estate.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[We have an insightful conversation with Glenn Sanford, founder and CEO of eXp World Holdings. Sharing his unique journey, starting in real estate in 2002 and building an online-focused practice with six top-ranked websites by 2008. Learn how the financial crisis of 2008 forced him to confront the high costs of a traditional brick-and-mortar brokerage. This challenge, combined with a moment of frustration with a team leader, led him to the realization that a successful business model could be built without physical offices. He launched eXp in 2009 with a core idea: create a defensible business model not dependent on physical overhead. He humorously recounts his \"focus group of one\" approach, recognizing that if he sought a different kind of brokerage, others likely would too, paving the way for eXp\'s massive growth.

Glenn is candid about the trials of building a company from the ground up, including surviving a stressful, hostile takeover attempt in eXp\'s early days. Having learned the value of being a majority shareholder to maintain company alignment. This experience solidified his principled stance of prioritizing agent experience over short-term financial gains for shareholders, a philosophy he defended in early boardroom battles. He draws a distinction between the customer-centric mindset of a founder, who focuses on serving a customer, and a Wall Street perspective that sees a company\'s purpose as solely generating profits for shareholders. This deep-seated belief in a customer-first culture, where he notes \"there\'s not much in real estate that you can\'t solve with a checkbook,\" has been central to eXp\'s culture and success.

We also cover eXp\'s global growth and its unique approach to business in other countries where cooperative real estate is rare. Glenn highlights the high cost of doing business internationally, such as a $2 million annual bill to a UK portal, which eXp covers to attract and retain agents. He contrasts eXp\'s model with traditional franchises, noting that eXp owns its operations and invests millions to establish a foothold in new markets. We also learn about Glenn\'s vision for a \"wisdom-based economy,\" arguing that while AI will dramatically increase agent efficiency and productivity, it requires a wise and organized professional to use it effectively. Advising agents and brokers to become actively involved with AI, positioning themselves to be among the winners in this coming transformation.

Learn how the financial crisis of 2008 forced him to confront the high costs of a traditional brick-and-mortar brokerage. This challenge, combined with a moment of frustration with a team leader, led him to the realization that a successful business model could be built without physical offices. He launched eXp in 2009 with a core idea: create a defensible business model not dependent on physical overhead. He humorously recounts his \"focus group of one\" approach, recognizing that if he sought a different kind of brokerage, others likely would too, paving the way for eXp\'s massive growth.

Glenn is candid about the trials of building a company from the ground up, including surviving a stressful, hostile takeover attempt in eXp\'s early days. Having learned the value of being a majority shareholder to maintain company alignment. This experience solidified his principled stance of prioritizing agent experience over short-term financial gains for shareholders, a philosophy he defended in early boardroom battles. He draws a distinction between the customer-centric mindset of a founder, who focuses on serving a customer, and a Wall Street perspective that sees a company\'s purpose as solely generating profits for shareholders. This deep-seated belief in a customer-first culture, where he notes \"there\'s not much in real estate that you can\'t solve with a checkbook,\" has been central to eXp\'s culture and success.

We also cover eXp\'s global growth and its unique approach to business in other countries where cooperative real estate is rare. Glenn highlights the high cost of doing business internationally, such as a $2 million annual bill to a UK portal, which eXp covers to attract and retain agents. He contrasts eXp\'s model with traditional franchises, noting that eXp owns its operations and invests millions to establish a foothold in new markets. We also learn about Glenn\'s vision for a \"wisdom-based economy,\" arguing that while AI will dramatically increase agent efficiency and productivity, it requires a wise and organized professional to use it effectively. Advising agents and brokers to become actively involved with AI, positioning themselves to be among the winners in this coming transformation.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[This episode kicks off a new series focused on top-producing agents and teams, featuring an unfiltered conversation with Gary Ashton and Debra Beagle, the co-owners of The Ashton Real Estate Group of RE/MAX Advantage. They reveal their unusual paths into the business—Gary as a professional drummer and motel owner from England, and Debra as an environmental chemist. Their origin story, a chance meeting at a broker open, highlights the power of complementary skills, with Gary\'s vision and brand-building balanced by Debra\'s operational discipline and client-centric approach. This partnership became the foundation for their team, now a global leader within the RE/MAX network.

We take a deep dive into their operational structure, a system designed to free agents from administrative burdens so they can focus on clients. They share their \"juicy ratio\" of one staff member for every five agents, a stark contrast to industry norms, which enables them to provide robust support. This includes in-house photographers, transaction coordinators, and a team of licensed inside sales agents (ISAs). Their ISAs are the first point of contact for leads, making an average of 38 touches to convert a client into an appointment, a number they say most individual agents cannot achieve.

Gary and Debra also unpack their powerful, multi-channel lead generation strategy. Emphasizing the importance of building a strong online presence through SEO, which Gary contrasts with the \"renting space\" model of PPC. Their bold approach to brand marketing includes innovative sports sponsorships, such as securing a vast tailgate space for their wrapped RV at NFL games instead of a private suite. They also credit their partnership with Realtor.com for providing high-quality inbound leads. Ultimately, they stress that success is a long-term play, requiring a business mindset, a firm grasp of numbers, and the willingness to push forward when others pull back.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[John Duncan, a principal and co-founder of Meridian Research, provides a rare, dispassionate analysis of Washington, D.C.\'s political ecosystem and its impact on real estate. Drawing from his experience in the Newt Gingrich era and the Bush administration, he explains the \"holistic nature of policy making\" and how a sober view is necessary to predict outcomes rather than getting lost in the emotion of the issues. John points out that the current political volatility is driven by two main factors: economic dislocations caused by technology displacing labor and a proliferation of fragmented information channels that make it harder for people to have a shared point of view. This has shifted power away from centralized institutions like Congress and into the hands of outside groups and social media.

We also do a detailed breakdown of federal efforts to address the housing supply crisis. John contrasts the approaches of the Biden and Trump administrations, noting that while Democrats focused on price controls and getting investors out of the market, both sides are now exploring solutions such as tax credits for developers, streamlining zoning laws, and utilizing federal land for housing. He highlights a significant bipartisan effort in the Senate Banking Committee, which passed a bill with unanimous support to address the supply issue, proving that policymakers on both sides of the aisle recognize the problem. However, he cautions that these federal actions are limited and that the most impactful solutions lie at the state and local levels.

John also addresses other pressing issues, including the rising cost of homeowners insurance and a potential bipartisan solution to reform manufactured housing financing, which could unlock a new wave of affordable homeownership. In the financial sector, he explains a policy change that allows for the use of \"alternative data\" in credit reports, a move that could help more people become first-time homebuyers. In his final advice, he urges real estate professionals to be \"informed and active,\" arguing that being engaged in advocacy is an important business practice that can influence policy and prevent a regulatory \"heavy hand\" from impacting the industry.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[In a rapidly changing industry, understanding where to invest your time and energy is crucial. Will Grewal, the CEO of HomeStack, offers a unique perspective on this by drawing a parallel between the Japanese culture of perfection and the real estate industry. He describes his experience in Japan as a \"12-star experience in a 10-star world,\" where a deep pride in one\'s craft is evident in every interaction. He argues that this commitment to a high level of service and care can be a guiding principle for real estate agents and brokerages. This principle is a key part of the conversation, which emphasizes the shift from a culture of yield and consumerism to one of perfection and intentionality.

The conversation then shifts to the evolving landscape of real estate technology. Will explains that while traditional websites are still important for establishing credibility, the industry is moving towards a mobile-first world. He highlights that while desktop is still used for deep-data analysis, most of the \"middle-of-the-funnel\" activity—like messaging, scheduling, and receiving alerts—is happening on mobile devices. Will introduces Homestack as a tool that directly addresses this shift. It offers agents a white-labeled, branded mobile app that prioritizes personalization, data privacy, and agentic AI. This is a direct contrast to portals that monetize user data and offer a one-size-fits-all experience.

A significant portion of the conversation is dedicated to the future of AI in real estate. The hosts discuss how an \"AI-empowered agent\" will use technology to accelerate their business, not to replace themselves. Will explains that while AI is an information-processing monster, it currently lacks the empathy and emotional intelligence to handle the human side of a real estate transaction. He predicts that AI will create more consumer confidence in areas like pricing and discovery, but a human agent will still be vital for synthesizing that information and providing the personal touch. The episode concludes with a powerful piece of advice: the ultimate form of leverage today is code, not money. The agents who will succeed in the future will be the ones who embrace technology to scale their efforts and free up their time for what truly matters: building relationships.

<description ><![CDATA[In a rapidly changing industry, understanding where to invest your time and energy is crucial. Will Grewal, the CEO of HomeStack, offers a unique perspective on this by drawing a parallel between the Japanese culture of perfection and the real estate industry. He describes his experience in Japan as a \"12-star experience in a 10-star world,\" where a deep pride in one\'s craft is evident in every interaction. He argues that this commitment to a high level of service and care can be a guiding principle for real estate agents and brokerages. This principle is a key part of the conversation, which emphasizes the shift from a culture of yield and consumerism to one of perfection and intentionality.

The conversation then shifts to the evolving landscape of real estate technology. Will explains that while traditional websites are still important for establishing credibility, the industry is moving towards a mobile-first world. He highlights that while desktop is still used for deep-data analysis, most of the \"middle-of-the-funnel\" activity—like messaging, scheduling, and receiving alerts—is happening on mobile devices. Will introduces Homestack as a tool that directly addresses this shift. It offers agents a white-labeled, branded mobile app that prioritizes personalization, data privacy, and agentic AI. This is a direct contrast to portals that monetize user data and offer a one-size-fits-all experience.

A significant portion of the conversation is dedicated to the future of AI in real estate. The hosts discuss how an \"AI-empowered agent\" will use technology to accelerate their business, not to replace themselves. Will explains that while AI is an information-processing monster, it currently lacks the empathy and emotional intelligence to handle the human side of a real estate transaction. He predicts that AI will create more consumer confidence in areas like pricing and discovery, but a human agent will still be vital for synthesizing that information and providing the personal touch. The episode concludes with a powerful piece of advice: the ultimate form of leverage today is code, not money. The agents who will succeed in the future will be the ones who embrace technology to scale their efforts and free up their time for what truly matters: building relationships.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[Dan Troup, CEO of the Broker Public Portal (BPP), joins the podcast to discuss the history, mission, and future of his organization. He explains that BPP was born out of broker frustration in 2014-2015 when Zillow surpassed Realtor.com in traffic. The founders created a unique governance model where MLSs and brokers each own a single unit and have one vote, preventing any single entity from gaining control or the company from being purchased. This structure also prohibits raising outside capital or distributing profits, which Dan believes is a core strength that allows BPP to focus on creating a superior product without the pressure of a for-profit agenda.

We get into how BPP plans to tackle the formidable challenge of competing with well-funded portals like Zillow and Homes.com, which have spent billions on marketing. Dan acknowledges BPP doesn\'t have \"little Wayne money,\" but sees its \"limitations\" as a strength, forcing the team to be scrappy and creative. The strategy hinges on leveraging the industry\'s existing relationships with agents and consumers, providing a nationwide, portal-level search experience at the brokerage and MLS level. Dan argues that consumers inherently trust the MLS as the authoritative source of data, and BPP aims to capitalize on that trust by offering a search without borders or advertisements.

You will learn the role of AI in BPP\'s development and the industry at large. Dan reveals that he and a small team of three developers built their soft launch site, brokerdata.com, in under a year, showcasing how affordable and efficient technology has become. He argues that AI amplifies the talents of skilled developers and allows a small, nimble company to compete with much larger ones. The podcast concludes with a debate on the transparency of \"days on market\" data. Dan and Keith forcefully argue that withholding information from consumers, a practice some in the industry advocate for, is a mistake that erodes trust and will be circumvented by AI tools anyway, as \"nature finds a way\" to provide the information people seek.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[This episode features a rare and insightful conversation with Merri Jo Cowen, CEO of Stellar MLS, an industry veteran with over 42 years of experience in real estate. She provides a historical perspective that few in the industry possess, having witnessed the evolution from manual carbon contracts to sophisticated digital platforms. Merri Jo shares her journey from manually inputting listings at the Reno Board of Realtors in 1983 to leading one of the nation\'s largest MLSs. She highlights a \"physics law\" of real estate: a consistent 30% annual turnover in agents, and the enduring importance of client relationships regardless of market trends. The discussion also touches on the unique aspects of the North American MLS model compared to global real estate practices, emphasizing the unparalleled benefits of cooperation and organized data.

Merri Jo also announces her upcoming retirement by June of next year, with Shane Fairley, her Chief Operations Officer, slated to succeed her as CEO. Merri Jo offers invaluable advice on succession planning, emphasizing the importance of mentoring internal talent and ensuring a gradual transition. She delves into Stellar MLS\'s \"secret sauce\" of culture, describing a highly collaborative and inclusive leadership approach where the executive team meets daily and prioritizes open communication across all levels, extending this philosophy to their volunteer board of directors. This collaborative environment has been instrumental in navigating complex industry changes, including major data-sharing initiatives.

We also address the critical topic of MLS consolidation and data sharing. Merri Jo explains the reciprocal data access partnership between Stellar MLS, CRMLS, and BrightMLS, highlighting that the primary goal is to expand access for their customers (members) to help consumers buy and sell properties. She acknowledges the historical resistance to data sharing among MLSs, often stemming from identity concerns and fear of job loss, but stresses that cooperation remains the foundational piece for a fair and efficient marketplace. Merri Jo also clarifies that MLS fines are not a revenue generator but rather a mechanism to ensure data accuracy and rule adherence, with collected funds often donated to charity. The episode concludes with Merri Jo\'s vision for the future MLS—one built on robust data and service, continuing to consolidate to better adapt to mandatory industry changes and serve agents effectively.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[This episode offers a critical mid-year review of the real estate market, addressing the underlying exhaustion felt by many professionals after three consecutive challenging years. We discuss how consumer confidence is impacting decision-making and why the economy resembles a \"13-year-old\" with volatile reactions to headlines. Analyzing the Federal Reserve\'s stance on interest rates, suggesting that a cut is likely when the labor market shows signs of breaking, despite the public rhetoric focusing on inflation and tariffs. We also touch upon forecasts from experts like Lawrence Yun, agreeing that 6% interest rates could unlock significant new sales, but emphasizing that recovery will be a gradual \"dimmer switch\" rather than an immediate flood of buyers.

We also break down the potential fallout if Zillow loses its lawsuit against Compass, a scenario James describes as \"really bad\" for the industry. Outlining a domino effect where major brokerages like Keller Williams and Anywhere Real Estate could launch their own private listing networks, potentially pulling 50% of inventory from the MLS. This would lead to massive industry consolidation, the obsolescence of MLSs, and Zillow potentially becoming the largest brokerage by recruiting agents directly through lead-based loyalty. This outcome would be detrimental for consumers, who would lose access to comprehensive property listings, and for independent brokerages, which would struggle to compete.

We also discuss Rocket\'s strategic acquisition of Mr. Cooper, the largest home loan servicer in the US, and its implications for long-term client relationships. Highlighting the real estate industry\'s weakness in client follow-up, which portals like Zillow exploit to re-monetize past clients. Rocket\'s vision involves creating a comprehensive ecosystem around the homeowner, using AI to provide real-time, relevant information and influence future buying or selling decisions over the typical 8-13 year homeownership cycle. While Keith expresses skepticism about Rocket\'s ability to excel in purchase loans, both agree this move will drive innovation in long-tail customer relationship management within the real estate sector. The episode concludes with practical advice on embracing AI, encouraging agents to experiment with tools like ChatGPT, Gemini, or Grok, and highlighting how AI can serve as a \"conversation starter\" to free up agents for more valuable \"face time\" with clients.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[The real estate industry is currently grappling with a whirlwind of legal challenges, and this episode cuts through the noise to provide clarity and crucial insights. Ed Zorn, VP and General Counsel for CRMLS, is back to break down the latest developments, including the Burnett appeal, the Zillow and Compass lawsuit, and the ongoing PLS vs. NAR litigation. Emphasizing that despite the legal theatrics, the industry is moving towards a more consumer-centric model, a shift that is ultimately beneficial for all parties involved. Ed reassures that the Burnett appeal is \"extraordinarily weak\" and unlikely to overturn the settlement agreement, stressing that the changes implemented in day-to-day broker and agent activities are here to stay.

We also cover the controversial topic of \"private listings.\" Ed debunks the arguments for such listings, highlighting their inherent risks for sellers and the real estate professionals promoting them. Explaining that claims of \"monopoly\" against platforms like Zillow are unfounded, as sellers have numerous avenues for exposure through the MLS and other platforms. Clarifying the distinctions between exclusive and open listings, advocating for open listings as the true pathway to seller choice for unique properties that may not fit the MLS model. Calling on agents to prioritize transparency and full market exposure for their clients to avoid future litigation.

We also warn against the potential liabilities associated with private listings. Ed predicts a surge in litigation from sellers who realize they may have received less money for their homes due to limited market exposure. He also touches on the re-opened PLS vs. NAR lawsuit, dismissing it as \"very weak\" due to the existence of open listing agreements. The hosts conclude by offering powerful arguments for agents to use when competing against those who push private listings, emphasizing the longer sale times and lower prices often associated with such practices. This episode is a must-listen for real estate professionals seeking to navigate the complex legal terrain and secure their clients\' best interests.

10 Key Takeaways
The Burnett appeal is likely to fail and will not reverse current real estate settlement agreements.
Industry changes, including the move to a consumer-centric model, are here to stay regardless of appeal outcomes.
The Zillow and Compass lawsuit is \"extraordinarily weak\" from Compass\'s perspective, with Zillow expected to win.
Zillow has the right to exclude listings that hide from consumers from their platform.
Zillow is not a monopoly because property listings are widely available across numerous real estate websites.
\"Private listings\" (or hidden listings) lead to properties taking approximately three weeks longer to sell.
Selling a property off-MLS carries significant legal risks for listing agents due to potential harm to sellers.
Informed consent forms may not protect agents from litigation if sellers claim they were not fully aware of limited market exposure.
Open listing agreements provide true seller choice and are not subject to MLS clear cooperation policies or Zillow\'s ban.
The PLS vs. NAR lawsuit is considered \"very weak\" and unlikely to succeed due to existing open listing options.

<pubDate >Thu, 17 Jul 2025 09:00:22 +0000</pubDate>
<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[Dan Cooper, CEO of Gitcha, shares his compelling entrepreneurial path, beginning with his challenging experience selling his home during the 2008 downturn. This personal struggle, where his property sold for significantly less than its initial value, sparked an idea that would later become Gitcha. He recognized a fundamental flaw in the real estate process: a lack of specific buyer intelligence and a reactive, rather than proactive, approach to matching properties with purchasers. This period, though difficult, laid the foundation for his future endeavors and his conviction that a more data-driven, buyer-focused system was necessary.

The conversation shifts to the dynamic and often unpredictable life of a startup founder. Dan recounts the \"pivots\" Gitcha has made, adapting its platform from an agent-to-agent solution to one that also serves consumers, and eventually integrating with MLS systems to become a \"two-sided network.\" He highlights the constant need for founders to listen to the market, refine their offerings, and persist through setbacks. This ability to adjust vision while maintaining determination is a hallmark of both successful entrepreneurs and thriving real estate professionals, who face similar daily challenges without a guaranteed paycheck.

Finally, Dan and the hosts discuss the current real estate climate, emphasizing the return of the buyer\'s market after many years dominated by sellers. This shift necessitates a renewed focus on buyer agency and creative deal-making. Dan argues that real estate professionals must apply the same meticulous effort to serving buyers as they do to sellers, moving beyond a \"rinse and repeat\" approach. The episode concludes with a powerful call to action: real estate professionals must continuously educate themselves, embrace ingenuity, and offer a more tailored, concierge-level service to buyers to remain competitive and create value in this evolving market.

10 Key Takeaways
Dan Cooper\'s entrepreneurial concept stemmed from a personal struggle to sell his home in a down market.
The real estate industry historically prioritizes sellers, leaving a gap in buyer-centric solutions.
Gitcha aims to provide a platform for agents to create \"buyer want listings\" and proactively match them with properties.
The \"life of a startup\" requires constant adjustment and a readiness to \"pivot\" based on market needs.
Dan launched his brokerage in May 2020, demonstrating his willingness to take risks.
Private listing networks are seen as a detriment to broad market visibility and consumer benefit.
There\'s an urgent need for real estate professionals to develop creative strategies beyond simple price reductions.
The current market shift back to a buyer\'s market requires new skills for many agents.
Only 15% of current agents were practicing during the last buyer\'s market in 2012.
Real estate agents function as entrepreneurs, facing similar struggles and requiring similar mindsets for success.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[This episode provides an insider’s perspective on the dynamic New York City real estate market, a hub known for its distinct character. Our guest is Bess Freedman, a prominent CEO with a legal background, explaining the nuances of the \"Fair Act\" and its real impact on tenants, landlords, and agents. She challenges the intentions behind such legislation, arguing that it often leads to unintended consequences like increased rents and a less efficient market for everyone involved.

The conversation also covers the broader economic forces affecting real estate across the Eastern Seaboard, from New York to Florida. We learn about the decline in international buyers and the critical affordability crisis facing first-time homebuyers, who are now older than ever before. The discussion highlights the need for responsible leadership and meaningful dialogue to address these systemic issues, rather than relying on simplistic, often counterproductive, legislative fixes.

Furthermore, the episode unpacks the contentious topic of private listing networks and Zillow\'s recent stance on office exclusives. Our guest advocates for transparency and broad market exposure, contrasting genuine private listings with large, advertised networks. The discussion concludes with insights into the evolving industry, including the acquisition of Redfin by Rocket and Mr. Cooper, and the ongoing quest for joy and purpose amidst continuous industry disruption.

10 Key Takeaways:
The New York City real estate market is improving compared to last year but faces ongoing uncertainty from rates and tariffs.
Affordability issues in New York are worsened by local legislation that misunderstands the market.
International buyer presence in the New York market has significantly decreased.
New York City\'s resilience is strong due to its talent, diversity, and cultural appeal.
The \"Fair Act\" in New York, intended to lower tenant costs, has led to increased rents by landlords.
Many city council members lack a deep understanding of the real estate industry\'s operations.
The real estate industry needs a louder, more unified voice in legislative discussions.
Large-scale \"private listing networks\" are seen as problematic, potentially causing fair housing issues and limiting price discovery for sellers.
Zillow\'s move to ban office-exclusive listings from its platforms is supported for promoting transparency.
The Rocket acquisition of Redfin and Mr. Cooper represents an interesting shift toward integrated real estate services.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[Are politicians missing the mark on the NAR settlement? Joining us in this episode is Gary Acosta, CEO of the National Association of Hispanic Real Estate Professionals (NAHREP), who highlights the unintended consequences of decoupling commissions, emphasizing that it could make homeownership less affordable, especially for first-time homebuyers, and the growing dominance of institutional investors in the market. 

We also talk about NAR\'s stance on fair housing and affordability, and why Gary is disappointed with their rigid approach. Touching on tricky issues like NIMBYism and zoning laws, as well as the need for NAR’s advocacy role in Washington.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[Creating simpler and fairer forms for the real estate industry wasn’t originally on eXp Realty CEO Leo Pareja’s forecast, but they did it. In this episode, we discuss eXp’s motivation to create those forms and open them up for the whole industry to use. We also talk about the benefits and risks of leading from the front, the reasoning to no longer do cooperation compensation, and why you should do the same.

Leo also gives his outlook on the future of real estate, and how it’s going to be based on skills and confidence. 

Takeaways

Simple and fair forms
The decision to no longer participate in cooperative compensation
During times of change, it is important to communicate clearly and empathize with agents and clients.
The industry is likely to experience attrition and a shift towards more skilled and competitive agents.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[Are we set on a potential hard landing in the housing market? Joining us in this episode is Logan Mohtashami, HousingWire\'s lead analyst, who provides valuable insights into the current state of the market and offers expert analysis on crucial topics like recession fears, interest rates, and affordability. 

We also unpack the NAR settlement and its impact on the industry, as well as the supply shortage, and the impact builders have had in the last decade.

Takeaways

The Federal Reserve is waiting for the labor market to break before making rate cuts.
The current economic cycle is more similar to the early 2000s than the 2008 financial crisis.
The housing market has the potential for a hard landing if job losses and unemployment rates increase.

Openly communicating with sellers about their options and potential risks

Providing historical commission percentages from his closed deals
Emphasizing fiduciary responsibility and negotiation tactics from both seller and buyer perspectives

We also discuss the importance of transparency, disclosing buyer agent compensation, and having open conversations with sellers about market conditions and available options.

<itunes:summary ><![CDATA[James and Keith sit down with Redfin\'s CEO, Glenn Kelman. As a top leader and innovator, Glenn shares his journey with Redfin from its early tech-driven approach to a more nuanced understanding of real estate as a service industry, emphasizing the human aspect of the single biggest transaction people will experience. This conversation also touches on the issue of dual agency and the impacts of the NAR settlement. Without compromising Redfin’s own litigations, Glenn shares his own frustrations with the settlement and why MLSs need to close the loophole on clear cooperation.


With his decades of experience, Glenn reflects on valuable lessons he’s learned over the years, such as the significance of technology in enhancing service rather than replacing agents, and addresses the recent pivot towards a variable compensation model at Redfin. 


These insights underscore the ever-evolving real estate landscape and the importance of adapting to changing dynamics. As the industry embraces technological advancements and new compensation structures, it\'s crucial to remain forward-thinking to thrive in this dynamic environment.
