The Industry Relations Podcast is now available on your favorite podcast player! Rob and Greg dive into the major industry shake-up: Compass acquiring Anywhere. They discuss the financial implications, consolidation trends, the future of MLS rules, and what the move means for private listings, brokerages, and consumers. The conversation also covers how competitors like Zillow, Keller Williams, and eXp might respond. Key Takeaways Compass acquires Anywhere in an all-stock deal valued at $1.6B, assuming $2.6B in debt. Combined, Compass and Anywhere account for roughly one-third of U.S. real estate transaction volume and one in six agents. Discussion on antitrust concerns and whether regulators will intervene. Compass's acquisition could accelerate industry consolidation, making scale critical for brokerages. Anywhere's conservative approach historically shaped industry standards; the acquisition may shift how private listings are treated. Debate over whether consumers really want private/exclusive listings and how MLS enforcement may change. Predictions that other brokerages will roll out private listing programs to compete. Speculation on how Zillow and large MLSs will respond to these shifts.

MONEY FM 89.3 - Prime Time with Howie Lim, Bernard Lim & Finance Presenter JP Ong
Keller Williams (KW) Singapore is the next-generation real estate model for today's consultants. The agency, led by PropertyLimBrothers co-founder Melvin Lim, brings Keller Williams’ global franchise to Singapore with a platform-based model designed around one core idea: treat real estate consultants like business owners, not just salespeople. Here’s what that looks like on the ground: consultants keep up to 94% of their commission earnings. They’re backed by an in-house Media-as-a-Service arm that gives them access to media studios, curated vendors, and AI-assisted content production, allowing them to focus on visibility, storytelling, and reach. There’s also a revenue-sharing programme that allows consultants to build teams and earn from the people they onboard, giving them equity-style income that doesn’t disappear when they stop closing deals. That kind of model is rare in Singapore, especially one paired with this level of infrastructure. On The Right Business, Hongbin Jeong speaks to Melvin Lim, Founder & Operating Principal, Keller Williams Singapore, to find out more.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

What if the future of real estate wasn't just about commissions, but about building lifelong wealth and client loyalty? In this episode of the Invest2FI Podcast, host Craig sits down with Ramon Casaus. He is a powerhouse real estate leader who built an independent brokerage in Albuquerque, expanded virtually across New Mexico, and later scaled his career in Scottsdale, Arizona. Ramon shares how discovering PLACE, founded by Ben Kinney and Chris Suarez, completely changed his trajectory. From early inquiries at the 2019 Keller Williams Family Reunion to hearing the “land on Mars” 10-year vision in Cabo, to partnering with Goldman Sachs-backed PLACE, Ramon discusses clarity, scale, IPO opportunities, and why agents who embrace partnerships are set to thrive. If you're an agent, investor, or curious about how a trillion-dollar consumer services industry ties into homeownership, this episode is packed with insights you can't miss. PODCAST HIGHLIGHTS [04:14] Ramon recalls running his own brokerage in Albuquerque from 2017 to 2020. [05:39] At Keller Williams' 2019 Family Reunion, he first hears about Place. [07:22] Ben Kinney's “land on Mars” vision convinces Ramon to go all-in. [08:10] Zillow HQ visit shows him how billion-dollar proptech disrupts the real estate industry. [10:10] Ramon breaks down $100 billion in commissions versus trillion-dollar services. [12:13] Place's one-stop app for insurance, mortgage, and 37-point inspections. [15:45] Place solves the loyalty gap: 80% say yes, only 15% repeat. [26:51] Place acquisitions and Goldman Sachs backing create efficiency at scale. [28:53] Half of U.S. agents already use Place-owned tech without knowing it. [34:00] Ramon explains 50% guaranteed net profit through partnership, not splits. [37:44] Why a blue-collar work ethic and patience matter for new agents. [40:08] Place partners gain pre-IPO stock at Goldman Sachs valuations. [47:28] Ramon's “why” is fueled by possibility and the question, Why not? [52:01] Closing thoughts: why Place feels like early Apple or Uber. HOST Craig Curelop

Texas Real Estate Commission - Information About Brokerage Services Blast from the Past, is a special follow up the hosts conversation, in Episode 67 Season 4 about being a Young Boomer or an Old Gen X. The siblings talked about their dad Bob Seemann and Eric specifically talked about how his dad was just an old soul. While Bob was a teen and young adult coming of age in the 1950's he cherished old songs, music and that he just didn't like 'Modern Music' and that "Rock & Roll". Here is the proof in Bob's own voice and speach. From 1955, Robert A. Seemann while a Junior at Ohio State University (the "THE" didn't come until later years), made this recording on a 78 rpm vinyl record. To capture this recording, Eric used a circa 1920's RCA Victor Victrola "His Master's Voice" which he restored in the 1980's. The Victrola was a family heirloom from Dad's Grandfather, which just seemed appropriate. The image in this episodes artwork is our Dad in 1982 on a trip through Canada. Donna Reed and Eric Seemann are both professional real estate agents. Donna lives and works in Tucson Arizona with Keller Williams Southern Arizona while Eric lives and works in San Antonio Texas with Keller Williams Heritage. They are also siblings, and they grew up in a small Northwest Ohio village of Lindsey. Their idyllic small-town childhood laid the foundation for what would become the structure of their lives and careers in real estate. We hope you will join us as we reminisce, reflect, and correlate how our childhood and life in rural Ohio still impacts our dealings with our clients today.

Some real estate teams are growing even in down markets. And that is not because they have doubled headcount or dumped money into leads, but because they have doubled down on data, service, and systems. That is exactly what Courtney Gauchman, COO at Wilson Group in Massachusetts, has helped her team do. With a background in the beauty industry and over a decade of operational leadership, Courtney now leads the systems and strategy that have fueled the Wilson Group's growth, despite navigating one of the toughest markets in recent years. And what is her approach? Track everything, but focus only on what moves the needle. From managing three full-time operations staff to building custom dashboards in Sisu, Courtney ensures every agent has clarity on where their business comes from and how to grow it. “We basically attribute the 88 percent growth during three of the hardest years in real estate to the fact that we use Sisu,” says Courtney. In this episode, Brian sits down with Courtney to talk about what it takes to run a referral-based real estate business, how to keep agents productive without burnout, and why they are starting to build an operations-as-a-service company for agents who do not want to manage staff. They also discuss how operational clarity impacts culture, conversion, and client experience!

Depending on your disposition for integrating technology into your work day, you believe AI is either a tool for increased efficiency and productivity. Or it presents challenges such as job displacement, the potential for bias and misinformation, and other ethical concerns. By the way, AI wrote that, which might foretell the end of my career as a writer and radio host. My two lunch guests today potentially worry about the future of their jobs too. Taylor Bennett is the founder & CEO of Mesh, an integrated advertising agency specializing in brand strategy, creative, web and digital marketing. For more than 20 years, Mesh has worked with local businesses such as Baton Rouge General and Visit Baton Rouge, as well as providing pro bono work for the Manship Theatre, Louisiana Wildlife and Fisheries Foundation, Ducks Unlimited and Jefferson United Methodist Church. In 2021, Mesh received the Best in Show Overall at the annual American Advertising Awards, also known as the Addy Awards. Max Zoghbi launched his career in cinematography with a daring adventure: together with his two best friends, Max traveled the entire 2,300 miles of the Mississippi River over 61 days in a kayak, documenting the journey through photos and video. After returning home, Max began picking up small video gigs—weddings, a commercial for a friend’s dad’s business—while working to break into the film and commercial industry. In 2011, Max founded Loupe Theory, providing direct production and agency work for Tostitos, Keller Williams, Cisco, NBA, Smoothie King, Lamar, Abercrombie & Fitch among others. Not since the introduction of the personal computer has technology influenced the workplace like AI seems poised to do. Whether you believe AI is an existential threat to the creative class or makes design work more efficient, it’s fair to say AI is here to stay. Max Zoghbi and Taylor Bennett are business people working in creative fields, both navigating a rapidly changing workplace. Yet, as with any business, flexibility, adaptation, and innovation have and will be the markers of their continued success. Out to Lunch is recorded live over lunch at Mansurs on the Boulevard.

I sat down with real estate legend Chad Goldwasser—who went from bartending at Trudy's to building the #1 real estate team in the world at Keller Williams. Chad shared the raw, unfiltered truth about what it really takes to succeed in real estate: relentless systems, daily affirmations, mentorship, and failing forward. You'll hear about his first mobile home listing, the moment a $17K investment in coaching changed everything, and how he built a 543-transaction business in just a few years—all while navigating personal and professional setbacks. This is more than a success story. It's a blueprint for any agent looking to rise above the noise and build something that lasts.

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for May 23, 2025 is: bastion BAS-chun noun A bastion is a place or system in which something (such as an idea) is protected and continues to survive. // The restaurant is a bastion of the region's ancient culinary traditions. See the entry > Examples: “In 2017, Harlem residents took to the streets to protest Keller Williams after the real estate company began marketing the neighborhood's 15-block southern radius (between 110th Street and 125th Street) as ‘SoHa' (South Harlem) without their approval. The biggest worry? That newcomers would attempt to erase Harlem's history as a civil rights nexus and bastion of Black American culture. In response, then-New York Sen. Brian Benjamin introduced legislation that banned unsolicited name changes and fined real estate firms for using names like SoHa.” — Jake Kring-Schreifels, Spokeo, 26 Mar. 2025 Did you know? Bastion today usually refers to a metaphorical fortress, a place where an idea, ethos, philosophy, culture, etc. is in some way protected and able to endure. But its oldest meaning concerned literal fortifications and strongholds. Bastion likely traces back to a verb, bastir, meaning “to build or weave,” from Old Occitan, a Romance language spoken in southern France from about 1100 to 1500. Bastir eventually led to bastia, an Italian word for a small quadrangular fortress, and from there bastione, referring to a part of a fortified structure—such as an outer wall—that juts or projects outward. Bastione became bastion in Middle French before entering English with the same meaning. You may be familiar with another bastir descendent, bastille, which refers generically to a prison or jail, but is best known as the name of the Parisian fortress-turned-prison stormed by an angry mob at the start of the French Revolution; the Bastille's fall is commemorated in France by the national holiday Bastille Day.
