Let's flash forward into the future 3 years.     You're applying for a job and you're going up against someone with an MBA.  That person is well-qualified and is probably the more attractive candidate for the job.    Let's say you have an Associates degree, but you happened to learn A.I. along the way.     You've implemented it in every single job you've had over the last 3 years.    When it comes time to getting an offer letter, if the person with the MBA hasn't mastered A.I., they're not going to land that job over you.    That's the good news.    Keep in mind, companies like Sony are not going to come here and invest tons of money and ignore cheap labor.     Sure, they'll be here for a season, but the United States is not going to pay the high wages commanded by the American workforce, especially when there are ways to scale a company by simply using A.I.    There will be no unions to pay, 401K, retirement, etc.    It's not a viable proposition.    I say that to say this............   A couple of years ago, I had close to 100 employees.    Today, I have 30, thanks to A.I.    Each one of them knows how to leverage A.I.   They are agents of A.I. and this is what future employers will be in search of.    So, if you're thinking about what you should be focused on now..............it's becoming an agent of A.I.      About the ReWire Podcast The ReWire Podcast with Ryan Stewman – Dive into powerful insights as Ryan Stewman, the HardCore Closer, breaks down mental barriers and shares actionable steps to rewire your thoughts.

The NYC Market Is Tighter Than the Numbers Show — Craig Roth Explains Why Noah and John sit down with Craig Roth, founder and principal of NextStop NY — a 22-year NYC real estate veteran who closes 150+ deals a year with over $2 billion in career sales. Craig specializes in Midtown East and Upper East Side, and he pulls no punches. Three of his listings went into contract this week before ever going back on the market. He breaks down why Upper East Side co-op prices are still below 2018 highs, why rents running 10% above last year are pushing buyers off the fence, and why right now feels a lot like 2012–13 — just before the market made a big move. Craig also gets into the craft: why he despises virtual staging, the co-op sublet policies and flip taxes that silently kill investment returns, and the one book every new agent should read. Topics in this episode: • Off-market deals and the tight inventory reality • Why the rent-vs-buy math is shifting for Upper East Side buyers • Parents buying for adult children — and why the numbers make sense • NYC resilience: ignoring political noise and trusting the long cycle • The "doctor of real estate" mindset and building-specific knowledge • Co-op sublet policies and flip taxes that destroy returns • Physical vs. virtual staging — Craig's strong take • Common listing agent mistakes: staging, pricing, confidence • CRM from day one — Craig's biggest early career regret • Network like crazy: seeds Craig planted without realizing it • "The Purple Cow" by Seth Godin — must-read for new agents • Why organic relationships beat cold calling every time ✅ NextStop NY: https://www.nextstopny.com ✅ Craig on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/realestatenewyork ✅ Craig on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nsnyrealestate =============== ✅ Stay Connected:

A former lawyer for Immigration and Customs Enforcement who helped train new agents said the agency's training academy is deficient and broken. Ryan Schwank became a whistleblower after he resigned earlier this month. He then went public during a forum held by congressional Democrats on Monday. He spoke to Minnesota Now host Nina Moini about his experience as a trainer for ICE.

Comprehensive coverage of the day's news with a focus on war and peace; social, environmental and economic justice. ICE training agents to violate constitution, according to ICE whistleblower testimony; Colorado activists campaign forces relocation of surveillance company Palantir used by ICE, Israel; UN Human Rights Council celebrates 20 years, General Assembly head Baerbock says “human rights are not a spectator sport”; Chicago voters name “Abolish ICE” as runaway top choice in “You Name a Snowplow” contest, other nominations include “Stephen Coldbert”, “Blizzard of Oz” The post Whistleblower says ICE training new agents to violate constitution; activists declare victory in campaign against AI surveillance company Palantir – February 23, 2026 appeared first on KPFA.

We're told a partial Department of Homeland Security shutdown is a national emergency — delayed flights, furloughed workers, Washington dysfunction. But here's what isn't being emphasized: ICE isn't shutting down. Arrests, detention, and deportations continue. And behind the political standoff, enforcement is scaling up. While headlines focus on “shutdown drama,” the enforcement apparatus appears to be accelerating — not pausing. The bigger question isn't whether Congress resolves this dispute. It's what a larger, faster, more centralized immigration enforcement system means for the country's future. Independent media has never been more important.

Apple's AI chief, John Giannandrea, is stepping down after delays and criticism around Apple Intelligence, including the postponed Siri overhaul. Amar Subramanya — a former Google and Microsoft AI leader — will take over and report to Craig Federighi as Apple reorganizes its AI teams. Giannandrea will stay on as an advisor until spring 2026. The shake-up shows Apple is still trying to catch up in AI, mirroring similar leadership exits at other tech companies.

Whether you're a brand-new agent still waiting on your first commission check or a seasoned agent trying to jumpstart a slow season, the real question is the same: where do you find a deal?  In real estate, there's no shortage of strategies: calling expireds, launching Facebook ads, working your sphere, and hosting open houses, but not all strategies are created equal, especially when you're just starting out.  Some methods build momentum fast, others require more skill, time, or confidence than most new agents have on day one. The goal isn't just to get a transaction, it's to get that first win that proves you belong in this business.  What are some of the easiest ways to generate a deal in 60-90 days? What lead gen methods should new agents avoid until they have more experience?  In this episode, we unpack the best ways to get early traction, from tapping into buyer leads and old contacts in your brokerage's database to simple text scripts that turn conversations into contracts.  Things You'll Learn In This Episode  Your sphere isn't exhausted; it's untapped Most agents don't fail because people don't trust them; they fail because they never actually reach out. What would happen if you texted every single contact in your phone this week? Old leads are hidden gold That “cold” or “dead” lead in the CRM might be someone else's future closing. What deals could you unlock if you spent just three hours a day calling your database? Buyers build momentum faster than listings If you're trying to get paid sooner rather than later, working buyer leads can be the quickest way to a paycheck. Why are so many agents resisting the easiest deals to close? Avoid the toughest game too early Expireds are powerful, but not for beginners. What traps do agents fall into when they jump into advanced lead types before building confidence?   About Your Host Greg Harrelson is a real estate agent, coach, trainer, and owner of Century 21 The Harrelson Group.

What if the key to scaling your real estate business isn't selling more homes, but learning how to delegate smarter? In this episode of the Real Estate Excellence Podcast, Tracy Hayes sits down with Jamie Hallman, founder of Consider It Closed and a powerhouse in the world of transaction coordination. Jamie shares her fascinating journey from working as a registered dietitian to traveling the world on a mission trip, and ultimately discovering her passion and skillset were perfectly aligned with real estate coordination. She opens up about how her solutions-driven mindset, love for structure, and eye for detail led her to create one of Florida's top transaction coordination companies. Jamie explains why delegation is essential for agents at every stage—from those closing just a few deals a year to top producers juggling dozens. With powerful stories, she illustrates how TCs provide agents with peace of mind, client satisfaction, and compliance assurance, while also helping them navigate unexpected hurdles like insurance issues, squatter situations, or even the shocking death of a seller on closing day.

The real estate world has shifted, and whether we like it or not, there's no going back.  Too many agents are still treating the changes as an extinction event, but here's the truth: if you adapt, we still have the opportunity we've had to grow market share in years. Since the settlement, more agents have entered the industry. That means more competition, but also more proof that complacency kills careers.  The new agents are hungry, willing to try what others won't, and most importantly, they're not afraid to embrace tools like AI to move faster and smarter. I've been in this business long enough to see that the AI-powered agent is nearly impossible to beat. When you know how to pair technology with your expertise, you become unstoppable.  It's not about replacing what makes us human; it's about amplifying it to generate more leads, close more deals, and serve clients in ways our industry couldn't imagine a few years ago. I was a guest on The 13% Podcast with Lance Billingsley and Dave Richards, where we went deep on what it takes to thrive in real estate today.  In our conversation, I shared how agents can navigate a post-settlement industry and why AI is a game-changer for lead gen and client service.    Things You'll Learn In This Episode  Business as usual is a trap If you keep working the way you always have, you'll lose market share. What happens to agents who refuse to adapt? The AI-powered agent is unstoppable. Blending technology with expertise gives some agents an unfair advantage. How are they closing more deals while working less? Complacency is killing seasoned pros. Hungry new agents are outpacing veterans every day. What simple mindset shift can help you stay ahead of the competition?   Guest Bio Lance Billingsley is a seasoned real estate professional with over a decade of experience in agent development and business coaching. Since January 2021, he has served as the Vice President of Agent Development at Navi Title Agency, where he leverages his extensive industry knowledge to mentor and support real estate agents.

In this episode of The Broker Link, Trey Owens and Mike Papuc dive into platform updates designed to simplify and enhance the onboarding experience for insurance agents. They address a common industry problem: agents often feel forgotten after joining. TBI is tackling this through ongoing support tools, including brief, twice-weekly training sessions and a personalized white glove contracting service. The episode also discusses TBI's financial incentive called Brokerage Bucks, offering agents up to $450 per sale each month. Trey and Mike stress that true success comes not just from tools, but from ongoing coaching and mentorship — both of which are central to TBI's agent-first philosophy.
