The way people search for businesses has fundamentally changed, and if you're still focused solely on Google SEO, you're invisible to most of your potential customers.Here's what's actually happening: Your 25-year-old customers are searching for recommendations on TikTok, not Google. Your corporate clients are asking ChatGPT for consultant recommendations instead of Googling. Your target demographic is scrolling Instagram for product reviews instead of reading search engine results.Google is no longer the only search engine that matters. In fact, it's not even the primary search engine for many demographics anymore.Welcome to the era of Search Everywhere Optimization - same acronym as traditional SEO, completely different strategy.In this episode, I break down exactly where people are actually searching and how to position your Santa Clarita business across every platform that matters: large language models like ChatGPT, Claude, Copilot, and Perplexity; social media platforms like TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, and LinkedIn; traditional search engines; and community platforms like Reddit.We cover the complete framework including AEO (Answer Engine Optimization) for getting AI systems to actually recommend your business, AIEO (Artificial Intelligence Engine Optimization) for the technical structure that makes your content retrievable, and the multi-platform content strategy that actually works without burning you out.I walk through exactly what I do when consulting with CMOs and business owners here in Santa Clarita Valley - how to audit where you're currently positioned, where your competition is showing up, where the gaps exist that you can own, and how to implement a realistic strategy that doesn't require 80 hours per week.You'll learn:Why Google's algorithm was actually protecting you (and why that era is over)The content repurposing system that makes multi-platform presence manageableWhy long-form content became MORE valuable in the AI eraHow to optimize for ChatGPT, Claude, and other LLMs to recommend youPlatform-specific strategies for TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, LinkedIn, and RedditThe paid versus organic integration that actually works90-day implementation roadmap you can start todayLocal Santa Clarita positioning advantagesThis isn't theory.

This isn't a theory. This isn't a warning about the future. This is happening right now, and you're probably already being fooled.I just watched 833 people comment on a fake Victor David Hanson video without a single person identifying it as AI-generated. Not one. The voice was perfect. The lip sync was flawless. The mannerisms were spot-on. Everything looked and sounded exactly like Victor David Hanson. Except it wasn't him. The only giveaway? The content style - the words coming out of his mouth weren't his talking points or rhetorical patterns.But here's the terrifying part: 833 engaged, thoughtful viewers missed it completely. And if they can be fooled, so can you. So can I. So can everyone.In this episode, I break down the current state of AI-generated fake videos, deepfakes, and synthetic media that's flooding every platform you use. We're past the point where you can trust your eyes and ears. The technology has already perfected voice cloning, facial expressions, lip sync, and visual authenticity. What hasn't been perfected yet - but is closing fast - is mimicking individual communication patterns.I'll show you exactly what to look for, how to verify content before you share it, and why the phrase "I can always tell a fake video" is dangerous thinking that makes you more vulnerable, not less.As someone with 20+ years of law enforcement experience with LAPD, I've spent my career evaluating credibility and spotting deception. And I'm telling you: this is different. This isn't about being smart or savvy. This is about systematic verification protocols that you need to build into your daily media consumption habits right now.We cover:Why the Victor David Hanson fake fooled everyoneThe money behind AI-generated content manipulationHow to teach your kids and parents to navigate thisThe wait-and-verify protocol that protects youWhy platforms won't save you from thisWhat happens when nothing can be verified anymoreThe content pattern recognition approach that actually worksPractical action steps you can implement todayWhether it's fake governor statements, fabricated president videos, or AI-generated local content targeting Santa Clarita Valley communities, you need to understand the landscape we're operating in. Companies are banking millions creating AI slop designed to exploit your psychology, grab your attention, and manipulate your beliefs.This episode gives you the tools to fight back. Not with detection technology - that's already losing the arms race.

The Santa Clarita Sheriff's Department Motor Squad is out doing enforcement at our major intersections, including Newhall Ranch Road and Bouquet Canyon. As a retired LAPD Motor Officer who issued over 16,000 citations in my career, I am breaking down exactly what they are looking for in this video.We cover the most common violations I see every day:The "California Roll." You must cease all forward motion behind the limit line before making a right on red. If you don't stop, it is a violation."Free Inhabitants." I address the drivers who refuse to show identification claiming they have a "right to travel" without a license. That does not work in California.Gridlock. Blocking the box because you entered the intersection without room to clear it is a major issue here. It backs up traffic for everyone.Watch the full breakdown to see if you would have passed the test: https://youtube.com/shorts/H3iulP7d1Qk?feature=shareFor more Santa Clarita real estate and community updates, follow @ConnorWithHonor.Hashtags: #SantaClarita #SCV #MotorCop #TrafficSafety #LASD #TicketWhisperer #ConnorWithHonor #SantaClaritaRealEstate #TrafficLaws #DashcamYoutube Channels:Conner with Honor - real estateHome Muscle - fat torchingFrom first responder to real estate expert, Connor with Honor brings honesty and integrity to your Santa Clarita home buying or selling journey.

Everyone tells Santa Clarita home sellers to wait for spring. That advice just cost someone $50,000.In this episode, Connor MacIvor—25 years in Santa Clarita real estate, 20 years with LAPD—breaks down the January vs March listing strategy that most agents won't tell you about.Real 2024 data from Valencia shows January listings averaged $892,500 and sold in 32 days. March listings? $865,200 and 45 days on market. That's $27,300 difference for doing LESS work with LESS competition.Connor reveals:• Why March brings 750 competing homes vs January's 400• The psychology of January buyers (corporate relocations, serious first-timers, smart investors)• Exact day-by-day timeline from December 23 to January 20• Neighborhood-specific strategies for Valencia, Saugus, Canyon Country, Stevenson Ranch, Castaic, and Newhall• How to vet agents who understand market timing vs those who just follow the crowd• Common mistakes that kill January listingsIf you're planning to sell in 2026, this episode could put an extra $30K-$60K in your pocket.For fairness. That's the whole deal.========================================LONG EPISODE DESCRIPTION (500-750 words)For show notes, blog posts, detailed platforms========================================**STOP Before You List Your Home in March 2026**Every spring, Santa Clarita real estate agents tell sellers the same thing: "Wait for the market to heat up in March." And every spring, sellers follow that advice—straight into a bloodbath of competition, price cuts, and missed opportunities.After 25 years in Santa Clarita Valley real estate and 20 years with the Los Angeles Police Department, Connor MacIvor has seen this pattern destroy seller profits year after year. In this episode of the Santa Clarita Open Houses podcast, Connor breaks down the January vs March listing strategy with brutal honesty and real market data.**The Numbers Don't Lie: January Destroys March**Real 2024 Santa Clarita market data:**January Listings:**- Active inventory: 380-420 homes- Average days on market: 32 days- List-to-sale price ratio: 98.4%- Average price per square foot: $425- Valencia 2,100 sqft home: $892,500 average sale price**March Listings:**- Active inventory: 720-780 homes- Average days on market: 45 days- List-to-sale price ratio: 96.1%- Average price per square foot: $412- Valencia 2,100 sqft home: $865,200 average sale price**The difference? $27,300 more Youtube Channels:Conner with Honor - real estateHome Muscle - fat torchingFrom first responder to real estate expert, Connor with Honor brings honesty and integrity to your Santa Clarita home buying or selling journey.

Your passenger can literally talk you into jail—and you won't even know it's happening until the handcuffs are on.I'm Connor MacIvor, 20-year LAPD motor officer, and I've seen this exact scenario play out HUNDREDS of times during my career on the streets of Los Angeles.After two decades conducting traffic stops, I'm breaking down the #1 mistake passengers make that escalates simple traffic violations into criminal investigations—even when the DRIVER did nothing wrong.THE SCENARIO:I stop someone for running a red light. Simple ticket. PASSENGER starts sweating, looking nervous.I ask: "Are you okay?"They BLURT: "The drugs aren't mine!"Now I have probable cause. Vehicle search. BOTH arrested—driver had NO IDEA.THE GUN SCENARIO:Driver forgets firearm in vehicle. I spot weapon during approach. Depending on state/permit, this escalates to felony stop—guns drawn, backup called.In California, CCW permits were rare. If you have a firearm, declare it IMMEDIATELY.MY RECOMMENDATIONS (20 Years):DO THIS:✓ Hands visible on steering wheel✓ Stay calm (nervous = suspicious)✓ Provide license/registration/insurance✓ Answer ID questions only✓ Choose passengers carefullyDON'T:✗ Make sudden movements✗ Volunteer extra information✗ Let passengers talk✗ Argue—save it for courtTHE "I REFUSE" STRATEGY:You're required to provide ID documents. Beyond that, you have the right to remain silent. The less you say, the less can be used against you. Be polite, comply with lawful orders, stay strategically silent.WHY TICKETWHISPERER EXISTS:After 20 years enforcing traffic law, I've seen how lack of education leads to unnecessary escalations. TicketWhisperer exists for one reason: Fairness through education.Understanding how the system works isn't about avoiding accountability—it's about navigating encounters competently and protecting your rights.RESOURCES:• Full Video Breakdown: https://www.loom.com/share/cb1cc245a1ab44458179a41ee0d9ad09• TicketWhisperer Website: [Your website]• Santa Clarita Open Houses: SantaClaritaOpenHouses.comQUESTIONS?

Artificial General Intelligence isn't 20 years away. It's months away. In this episode, Connor breaks down why this technological revolution is fundamentally different from every other major disruption in human history—and why the speed is the thing that will shock everyone.The agricultural revolution took decades to roll out because there were no roads to the West Coast, no communication systems, no established trade routes. The industrial revolution took 30-50 years because factories had to be built, transportation networks created, education systems restructured. The printing press took centuries to transform society because distribution had to be physically created.But AGI is different. The infrastructure already exists. Fiber optic cables laid during the dot-com boom. 5G networks deployed globally. Cloud computing accessible everywhere. Billions of connected devices. The entire internet ecosystem ready to distribute AI technology.That changes the timeline from decades to months. Maybe weeks.Learn why job displacement is accelerating and it's not optional—it's economic incentive. If a business can do the same work with 10% of the workforce by deploying AI, they will. That's not evil. That's how systems work. Real estate agents, customer service reps, radiologists, programmers—all vulnerable. Not because they lack skill. Because technology disrupts.But here's what most people miss: there's a fork in the road. AGI can lead to abundance for everyone (solving hunger, disease, energy) or it can concentrate wealth and power further, creating a two-tiered society. The outcome depends on intentional choices by the people building and deploying this technology.Connor addresses the ethical question: If a specialist cancer AI solves cancer tomorrow, will pharmaceutical companies release the cure immediately or hold it back to protect market share? Who gets access to longevity treatments? Who benefits from AGI advancement? These aren't philosophical questions anymore. They're practical questions demanding answers in 3-5 years.For Santa Clarita specifically: we have significant populations in jobs getting disrupted right now—real estate, construction, customer service, administrative work. What's the plan? Is there one?Discover what specialists vs. generalists in AI mean, why the race between OpenAI, Google, and others is about controlling the future, and what you actually need to do right now. The businesses that will win aren't the ones with the most people. They're the ones with the smartest AI implementation.For anyone concerned about the Youtube Channels:Conner with Honor - real estateHome Muscle - fat torchingFrom first responder to real estate expert, Connor with Honor brings honesty and integrity to your Santa Clarita home buying or selling journey.

Real estate agents in Santa Clarita are uniquely vulnerable to AGI—not because they're low-skilled, but because real estate work is highly repeatable and systematizable. An AI system can list properties, respond to inquiries, schedule showings, coordinate logistics, negotiate offers, and provide 24/7 client service. A real estate team that deployed AI could manage 2-3x the transaction volume with the same number of agents. Or keep the same volume and cut staff in half. From a business economics perspective, that's irresistible.In this episode, Connor explains exactly why 50% of Santa Clarita agents will be displaced—and more importantly, how to be in the surviving 50%. The math is brutal: if you handle 10 transactions per month and your brokerage deploys an AI system that handles 80% of routine work, your brokerage realizes they can do the same volume with half the agents. That's inevitable if AGI-level real estate systems become available.But here's the opportunity: agents who move first will dominate the market.Learn the difference between commodity agents (easily replaced by AI) and specialist agents (who use AI to multiply their effectiveness and become indispensable). Commodity agents list houses the traditional way, respond via email/text, rely on routine processes. They're vulnerable immediately. Specialist agents become the AI-powered expert in their market, use AI to free up time for high-touch client work, handle complex transactions requiring judgment, and become the person who manages the AI (not the person it replaces).Discover five actions to take RIGHT NOW: (1) Learn the basics—understand what AI can and can't do, experiment with ChatGPT and Gemini; (2) Integrate AI into your workflow—use it for listing descriptions, comparable sales analysis, follow-up sequences, administrative work; (3) Position yourself as the AI expert in your brokerage—become the person who trains others and evaluates new tools; (4) Build specialization—don't be a general agent, become the expert in your market, neighborhood, or transaction type; (5) Join the conversation—Santa Clarita Artificial Intelligence offers classes and training specifically for real estate professionals.The infrastructure to deploy AI across real estate already exists. Fiber optics. Cloud computing. Every agent has a computer. Every MLS is connected. Every buyer and seller has a phone. That means when AGI-level real estate systems become available, they don't take decades to roll out. They deploy in months.The agents who start learning AI now will have 12-24 months of advantage over agents leaYoutube Channels:Conner with Honor - real estateHome Muscle - fat torchingFrom first responder to real estate expert, Connor with Honor brings honesty and integrity to your Santa Clarita home buying or selling journey.

Fat loss is a mental game first, a physical game second. You can't outrun a broken mindset, and willpower alone won't fix an addictive eating pattern. In this episode, Connor breaks down why hidden eating—sneaking meals, eating in parked cars, compulsive consumption—is a diagnostic marker of food addiction, not a willpower problem. This is the conversation nobody wants to have, but it's the foundation for actual transformation.Learn why extended fasting is revolutionary: it teaches your nervous system that hunger isn't an emergency. When you fast for 24, 36, 48 hours and nothing bad happens, when your day continues and you don't die, that recalibrates everything. Your automatic response changes. Hunger becomes a signal, not a command.But transformation requires more than just fasting. Connor reveals the complete four-month protocol: self-forgiveness as a prerequisite (without it, shame will sabotage you), visualization that's sensory and specific (not abstract), resistance training to preserve muscle while losing fat, and realistic timeframes (months, not weeks). He also addresses the hidden relationships problem—how food becomes your primary social connector, and why changing your eating creates friction with people you care about.Discover why calorie restriction has limits (your metabolism adapts), how extended fasting prevents that adaptation, and why specialist vs. generalist approaches matter. Learn about the visualization work that actually moves the needle: not imagining yourself thin, but feeling what it's like to climb stairs without breathlessness, to sit in an airplane seat without overflow, to experience intimacy without physical barriers.If you've tried dieting multiple times and failed, this episode explains why—and what actually works. For everyone serious about body transformation, not another quick-fix diet. For anyone ready to address the psychological foundation first, then build the physical protocol on top of it.Full Link: https://fastingbot.com/post/from-hidden-eating-to-honest-transformation-the-psychology-of-fat-loss-that-nobody-talks-aboutKeywords (for podcast directory): extended fasting, fat loss psychology, body transformation, addiction to food, fasting protocol, weight loss mindset, muscle preservation, behavioral change, intermittent fasting, fitness, food addiction, self-forgiveness, fitness motivation, health journey, lifestyle changeYoutube Channels:Conner with Honor - real estateHome Muscle - fat torchingFrom first responder to real estate expert, Connor with Honor brings honesty and integrity to your Santa Clarita home buying or selling journey.

That's less than three years until everything changes. As a former LAPD officer with 25+ years in law enforcement, I learned one fundamental truth: the moment you lose your head, you lose your ability to make sound decisions. That lesson applies now more than ever.

Day 6. No food. Just water, black coffee, and electrolytes.If you've been following the journey, you've seen the numbers. I am down just over 20 pounds—somewhere between 22 and 23 pounds to be exact—since Day 1. But Day 6 is a different animal. This is where the initial motivation fades, the "easy" water weight is gone, and the real mental and biological battle begins.In this video, I'm breaking down exactly how I feel, the specific headache that hits around this time, and why the scale might lie to you tomorrow. We are also going to talk about the single most dangerous part of fasting: The Refeed. If you break a long fast with pizza and donuts, you aren't just ruining your progress—you are risking your health.In this video, I cover:1. The Weight Loss Reality Check (Homeostasis) From Day 1 to Day 2, you get that massive "whoosh." It feels amazing. But by Day 6, things slow down. I wouldn't be shocked if I wake up on Day 7 or 8 and see zero weight loss, or even a slight gain. Why? Because the body fights for homeostasis. It wants to hold onto water to stay safe. If you don't understand this biology, you will quit when the scale stalls. I explain why you have to trust the process—if you aren't eating, you ARE burning fat.2. The Insulin Trap & "Zero Calorie" Lies You have to keep it pure. Water. Black coffee. Pure salts. That's it. I talk about why "zero calorie" energy drinks with artificial sweeteners can wreck your fast. Even if there's no sugar, the sweetness on your tongue can trigger a Cephalic Phase Insulin Response. Your body spikes insulin (the fat-storage hormone), and suddenly you're in a state where you can't access your fat stores. It's misery. Keep it clean.3. The Mental Game: The Pink Elephant Don't try to ignore the food cravings. If I tell you "Don't think about a pink elephant," what do you think about? The elephant. The same goes for food. When I think about those deep-fried burritos from East LA or the donuts I used to eat on patrol, I don't push the thought away. I "play the tape forward." I visualize eating it, but I also visualize how terrible I'll feel 20 minutes later. That is how you win the mental war.4. The Danger Zone: Breaking the Fast The longer you go, the more dangerous the refeed becomes. Refeeding Syndrome is real. You cannot dump heavy carbs into a digestive system that has been asleep for a week. I share my strict protocol for breaking the fast: Bone broth, one hard-boiled egg, half an avocado. That's it. And yes, the scale will jump up 3lbs overnight when you eaYoutube Channels:Conner with Honor - real estateHome Muscle - fat torchingFrom first responder to real estate expert, Connor with Honor brings honesty and integrity to your Santa Clarita home buying or selling journey.

We used to worry about AI coming from the stars like some alien force

Are you ready for the AI Data War?In this episode, Connor with Honor breaks down the massive shift occurring in the artificial intelligence landscape—from the recursive self-improvement of models like Gemini and Grok to the "Data War" being fought between tech giants like Google and Apple.The way customers find your business is changing forever. We are moving away from traditional "10 blue links" search results to AI-generated answers. If your business data isn't optimized, fresh, and structured correctly, the AI will simply ignore you.Connor provides a masterclass on Google My Business (GMB) optimization, specifically for real estate agents and local business owners in Santa Clarita and beyond. You will learn why the "set it and forget it" mentality is a death sentence for your local ranking and how to use AI tools (like Gemini Pro) to do the heavy lifting for you.In this episode, you will learn:The State of AI Models: Why the models we use publicly are months behind what developers are actually running, and what "recursive self-improvement" means for the future of tech.The Google-Apple Convergence: How a potential deal between Siri and Google Gemini could change local search traffic overnight.Google My Business Optimization: How to achieve the "Green Circle" of profile strength.The "NAP" Rule: Why Name, Address, and Phone consistency is the bedrock of your digital identity.Daily Update Strategy: Why you need to post updates to your GMB profile 5 days a week and how to automate it.Prompt Engineering: Live demos of the specific prompts to use to generate 750-character business descriptions, proactive Q&A sections, and engaging posts that rank.The Future of Agents: A look ahead at personal AI agents and virtual worlds where business will eventually be conducted.Featured Prompts in this Episode: Connor shares the exact prompts you can paste into Gemini or ChatGPT to audit your business category, rewrite your business description (up to 1,500 characters), and generate the top 3 questions your specific clients are asking right now.Timestamps: 00:00 - The rapid upgrade cycle of Gemini and Grok. 01:50 - The "Data War" and Google My Business. 04:30 - The shift from Search Engines to Answer Engines. 09:13 - analyzing your Profile Strength (The Green Donut). 13:01 - The Marketing Funnel & NAP consistency. 21:30 - Selecting the right Business Categories with AI. 26:48 - Visuals & Copyright: Warning about Youtube Channels:Conner with Honor - real estateHome Muscle - fat torchingFrom first responder to real estate expert, Connor with Honor brings honesty and integrity to your Santa Clarita home buying or selling journey.

From Thomas Guides to AI: The Shift to Answer Engine OptimizationEpisode Summary:Just as GPS replaced the Thomas Guide, Artificial Intelligence is replacing traditional Search Engine Optimization. In this episode, Connor with Honor explains why businesses must pivot to "Answer Engine Optimization" (AEO) to stay visible in the age of AI.Full Show Notes:If you were around before 2007, you likely remember the Thomas Guide—that thick, county-organized book of maps sold at office supply stores and Costco (or Price Club)1. Just as technology evolved from those paper maps to GPS, the digital landscape is currently undergoing a massive shift from Search Engine Optimization (SEO) to Artificial Intelligence Optimization2.In this episode, Connor with Honor (the AI Growth Architect) breaks down why the old methods of "blue link" searching are fading and how Large Language Models (LLMs) are becoming the new gatekeepers of information3.Key Topics Covered:The Evolution of Search: Why relying on old SEO tactics is like using a paper map in a GPS world4.AEO (Answer Engine Optimization): The transition to a "Question and Answer" format where content must directly solve user problems—whether it's about real estate inspections, plumbing, or roofing—to be picked up by AI5.The AI Landscape: Navigating the different models available today, including ChatGPT (OpenAI), Grok (xAI), Meta, Claude (Anthropic), Copilot (Microsoft), and Gemini (Google)6.The "Playbook" Warning: A look at how AI systems know your psychological "playbook," how they are aligned (often with a Silicon Valley bias), and why you must be vigilant to avoid being distracted or influenced by them7.Business Positioning: How to audit your business to ensure you are the best resource found online when clients ask AI for help8.Resources & Links:

TLDR (Too Long; Didn't Read)The search world has fundamentally shifted from traditional SEO (Search Engine Optimization), where you got a list of links, to AEO (Answer Engine Optimization), where AI models like ChatGPT, Gemini, and Claude give a single, direct answer. For real estate agents and local business owners, your online content, from social media to blog posts, must be restructured to be easily scraped and ranked by these Large Language Models (LLMs). The secret? Consistent, daily content updates on your Google My Business and Bing Local Pages coupled with AI-powered engagement tools like voice agents and chat widgets. Stop chasing clicks, start structuring for answers.Summary & Key TakeawaysIn this crucial episode of the Santa Clarita Artificial Intelligence blog, host Connor with Honor (Connor MacIvor, First Responder Realtor) explains the massive disruption in online search—the transition from a SERP (Search Engine Results Page)-driven world to an AI-driven Answer Engine world. This is essential listening for any real estate professional, law firm, insurance agent, or local service provider who wants to dominate their local market.The Google Shift: Google's early success was built on providing the "best results." Now, AI-powered systems are providing the "best answer."The AI Alignment: With updates from major LLMs (Gemini, Grok, Claude, OpenAI Co-pilot) converging, the moment to adapt is now.Structure is King: Your online posts and social media updates must have specific criteria and structure (like embedded Q&A/FAQs) to make it easy for AI engines to extract, validate, and rank your information.GEO & AEO Priorities:Google My Business (GMB): This is the foundation. Daily content updates are "super heavy" and critical for ranking.Bing Local Business: Since many LLMs (like Co-pilot/OpenAI) pull data from Bing's engine, having a structured, up-to-date Bing page is non-negotiable.The AI Engagement Layer: Leverage AI voice agents embedded in website chat widgets and 24/7 AI interaction engines to instantly capture leads, book appointments, and nurture clients, turning late-night inquiries into booked consultations.VEO (Video Engine Optimization): For platforms like YouTube, your video content must align with your verbiage, featuring Q&A and FAQs, to ensure AI can pull compliant and useful data.To start integrating these criYoutube Channels:Conner with Honor - real estateHome Muscle - fat torchingFrom first responder to real estate expert, Connor with Honor brings honesty and integrity to your Santa Clarita home buying or selling journey.

Remember the early 2000s, when SEO was about keyword stuffing and getting "above the fold"? That world is dead. Today, AI models like Google's Gemini and Microsoft's Co-Pilot are no longer pointing users to links—they are giving direct answers. This shift from Search Engine Optimization (SEO) to Answer Engine Optimization (AEO) is killing organic clicks for 99% of businesses.In this deep-dive episode, Connor MacIvor (@AIwithHonor), an honorably retired LAPD officer and Santa Clarita Realtor, reveals how to adapt your content strategy immediately. He breaks down why your content must now be structured to be the source cited in the AI-generated answer, and how this directly impacts local businesses in the Santa Clarita Valley.The Key Takeaways for AEO Success:The Click-Through Crisis: Why top search rankings are losing a third of their traffic and how AI Overviews (like the ones you see in Google) are becoming the new gatekeeper, especially for informational real estate and service queries.AEO Playbook: The critical differences between SEO and AEO. Learn the format and structure your blog posts and transcripts need so that AI models will cite your business directly and elevate your authority.The Santa Clarita Niche Advantage: Why becoming conversationally niche—referencing your business an "uncomfortable" amount—is the key to dominating local Answer Engine Optimization and bypassing global competition.The Ethics of AI: Connor explores the darker side of AI search and social media, including data monetization, the Robotheism concept, and the pressing questions around job displacement and consciousness.The Google Secret Arsenal (A Must-Read): The integrated, free AI factory Google has released that empowers you to create AEO-perfect content faster and more efficiently than ever before.Don't be the dead body on page two. Adapt to AEO now to ensure your Santa Clarita Artificial Intelligence content becomes the trusted answer in the age of AI search.Resources Mentioned:The Definitive Playbook for Google's Free AI Stack (AEO Strategy): https://santaclaritaartificialintelligence.com/post/the-definitive-playbook-leveraging-googles-free-professional-ai-stack-for-unprecedented-agency-advantageConnor's AI & Business BloYoutube Channels:Conner with Honor - real estateHome Muscle - fat torchingFrom first responder to real estate expert, Connor with Honor brings honesty and integrity to your Santa Clarita home buying or selling journey.

Is AI Bigger Than the Discovery of Fire? (The Top 30 Questions: Part 1)"You have questions? I think I have the answers."I don't come from a technological background. I was an LAPD officer for 17 years and a Reserve for 5 more. I've been a Realtor in Santa Clarita since 1998. But you don't need to be a coder to see when the ground is shifting beneath your feet. We are looking at a shift that makes the Industrial Revolution look small.In this first installment of our new series, we are tackling The Top 30 Questions People Have About Artificial Intelligence. We are stripping away the sci-fi noise and getting down to the foundations.What exactly is AI?Think of it like that classic child's game with the wooden shapes and the corresponding holes.Old Computing (The Calculator Era): You take the child's hand and physically guide the square peg into the square hole. You are programming the specific action.Artificial Intelligence: You give the child the pegs and let them figure it out on their own. They fail, they learn, they recognize patterns, and eventually, they solve the puzzle faster than you can.That is where we are today. We aren't just calculating; we are simulating intelligence.In this episode, we cover:

Are you tired of endlessly scrolling through Zillow and seeing the same homes in Santa Clarita? Do you want to find properties that aren't readily available to the average buyer? Then this episode is for you!I'm Connor with Honor, and in this podcast, I'm cutting through the noise to reveal the real strategies top buyer's agents should be using to find you the perfect home.

These aren't failures; they're prime opportunities for motivated buyers.Understanding Seller Motivation (0:39): Why do sellers pull listings? Learn how to understand their pain points and approach them effectively.Beyond Zillow (0:54): Forget the myth of agents "conning" sellers. I'll share my "Gold Standard" approach: preparing a detailed buyer's portfolio to build trust and open doors to exclusive listings.Targeted Search Strategies (1:50): How a good buyer's agent can find homes based on your exact criteria—whether it's a 2,300 sq ft home in Valencia with specific amenities, or something totally unique.Real-World Examples (2:18): I'll walk through current Santa Clarita examples, including a home under $900k, and show you how to expand your search to other areas like Riverside.The "Secret Sauce" (7:23): Why looking at canceled, expired, and withdrawn listings is the ultimate strategy for finding your dream home when inventory is low.Negotiating New Construction (6:21): Even high-priced new builds can be negotiated if you have the right agent with the "conganas" to go in and fight for your best deal.My "Connor with Honor" Promise (7:37): Why you need an agent who truly cares, works hard, and doesn't just push you through a transaction.If you're serious about finding your next home and want to leverage every possible advantage, this episode is a must-listen.

Let's be adults about this.If you're an agent, lender, inspector, roofer, HVAC, contractor, remodel, solar, or any local service business… the reason you're not getting enough booked conversations is not “the market,” “the algorithm,” or “people are cheap right now.”The reason is simpler: You are not in the first conversation.Here's exactly what's happening to you every week:• Lead finds you. • They call. • You're with a client / driving / at dinner / finally off for the night. • You don't answer because you're human. • They don't leave a voicemail because nobody does. • They call the next person on Google, Instagram, YouTube, or whatever AI just recommended to them. • You text them in the morning. • They're already gone.And then you tell yourself, “Leads are trash right now.” No. You were late.This entire video is about how to stop being late. Period.Here's the system I walk you through in detail:24/7 REAL ANSWER (NOT VOICEMAIL) When someone reaches out — call, contact form, ‘can you help me,' late-night panic request — they get an immediate response. Not “Leave a message.” Not “We'll return your call during normal business hours.” A real interaction starts right there, even if you're offline.That alone keeps them from dialing your competitor.INSTANT QUALIFICATION (ARE THEY LEGIT OR JUST BROWSING?) Right away, we lock in what they actually are: – Buyer or seller with a real timeline. – Homeowner who wants to list but doesn't want to feel trapped between closings. – Homeowner who needs a repair quote TODAY, not “next week.” – Renter trying to become a buyer and scared of total payment. – Relocation family trying to figure out commute and monthly nut. – Tire kicker.You're not chasing ghosts for three days. You're not guessing who's serious. You're not wasting energy “following up” with somebody who was never going to book with you anyway.AUTO-SET APPOINTMENT (THIS IS THE MONEY PART) The system doesn't “take a message.” The system books a real call / visit / consult on your calendar.You wake up to: “You're talking to Alex at 11:30 AM. They're ready to list in the next 30 days, they're worried about having to do upgrades, and they have to keep the next payment under $X. Here's their number.”Do you understand how different that is from “You missed a call last night”?They didn't just ‘inquire.' They're scheduled.While you were sleeping.That's how toYoutube Channels:Conner with Honor - real estateHome Muscle - fat torchingFrom first responder to real estate expert, Connor with Honor brings honesty and integrity to your Santa Clarita home buying or selling journey.

Santa Clarita Real Estate Update – 10/27/2025

You don't need another “keep going champ

SANTA CLARITA REAL ESTATE UPDATE

Welcome back — I'm Connor MacIvor, better known as “Connor with Honor,” and today's story from the front lines of Santa Clarita real estate might change how you think about open houses, bluffing, and “best-and-final” offers.Everyone's heard the clichés:“Open houses don't sell homes.” “When a buyer says ‘best and final,' it's over.”Wrong on both counts.In this episode, I break down a real transaction from SantaClaritaOpenHouses.com where an open house actually did sell the listing — all because we refused to accept the so-called rules. A friendly neighbor, a phone call at just the right time, and a buyer's agent who tried to bluff their way to a lower price… until the counter-counter offer landed us in escrow.Here's what we cover: • How to host an open house that actually creates offers instead of just foot traffic • Why “best and final” is usually just a negotiation tactic — and how to call the bluff without losing the deal • What every seller should know before assuming an offer is the end of the conversation • Why even “as-is” homes often trigger repair negotiations — and how to keep them under control • The single biggest mistake agents make when emotion overrides business senseI'll also share how this deal illustrates something deeper about today's market: the power of persistence and professionalism. Whether you're a buyer, a seller, or another agent trying to sharpen your edge, this one will give you the mindset to handle those “we're done” moments with confidence.Because in real estate — just like poker — you don't fold when someone says “final.” You read the room, understand the leverage, and play your hand with honor.

If you live in—or want to move to—the Santa Clarita Valley (SCV), this episode gives you straight talk on the Top 10 most-asked real estate questions. We cover when to sell, what your home is really worth, how to prep without overspending, whether to order pre-listing inspections, how long it may take to sell, the first step for buyers, loan types (VA/FHA/Conventional/ARMs), buyer's vs. seller's market strategy, whether you actually need an agent, and what it all costs.You'll get quick TL;DR answers followed by local, SCV-specific deep dives for Valencia, Saugus, Canyon Country, Stevenson Ranch, Castaic, Newhall, Agua Dulce, and Acton—so you can make confident moves right now.What you'll learnThe best window to sell in SCV—and why pricing + presentation beat the calendarHow to reconcile MLS comps with portal estimates (and why a single number can mislead you)The $1,500-or-less prep plan that actually moves the needle (curb appeal, paint, simple repairs)Why pre-listing home & termite inspections change negotiations in your favorA weekly DOM/absorption check to avoid “waiting and hoping”Buyer playbook: full underwritten pre-approval, realistic payment modeling (taxes, HOA/Mello-Roos/CFD)Loans decoded: VA, FHA, Conventional, ARMs—and how rate buydowns can win without overpayingHow strategies shift in a buyer's vs. seller's market (timelines, credits, repairs)DIY vs. Agent: where representation actually adds net and reduces riskReal cost buckets for both sides (title/escrow, credits, inspections, buydowns, HOA docs)Local GEO notesValencia/Bridgeport/West Creek–West Hills: paseo/park lifestyle and top schools drive demandStevenson Ranch/Castaic: freeway access + slopes/views change price bands and DOMAgua Dulce/Acton: utility (acreage, well/septic docs, outbuildings) beats cosmeticsHelpful links (on SantaClaritaOpenHouses.com) /valencia • /saugus • /canyon-country • /stevenson-ranch • /castaic • /newhall • /agua-dulce • /acton /open-houses • /coming-soon • /homes-with-pools • /55-plus • /gated-communities • /rv-parking • /golf-course /home-value • /seller-guide • /market-report • /new-listings • /loan-options • /book-a-consult Want the full Top 30 Questions guide?
