71% of Agents Aren't Closing Deals—How to Be in the Top 29% With market uncertainty, commission shakeups, and lead-gen costs rising, many agents are frozen—but not the best ones. In this episode, NextHome Co-CEOs James Dwiggins and Keith Robinson get real about what agents MUST do to survive and thrive in today's chaotic market.

In this high-energy episode, Keith Robinson, Chief Strategic Officer at NextHome, joins me to talk about how AI is reshaping real estate, not by replacing agents, but by empowering them. Keith breaks down the real impact of AI, why we're not heading for a robot takeover, and how smart agents can stay ready to seize new opportunities. He explains why emotional intelligence is still your superpower, what role creativity plays in an AI-enhanced future, and how AI can help agents overcome rejection avoidance and start more meaningful conversations. Tech-savvy or tech-terrified, either way, this episode will give you a fresh, grounded perspective on how to harness AI without losing your human touch.

This week on the Power House podcast, Diego sits down with James Dwiggins, the CEO and co-founder of national real estate franchise, NextHome. Guided by a “humans over homes” philosophy, the brand focuses on quality over quantity, with 600 offices and 6,000 agents across the country. James has a lot of experience in the real estate world, and with that comes a lot of strong opinions — namely on clear cooperation policies, legal issues with dual agency, and MLS practices. He also shares why, despite its issues, NAR's advocacy work shouldn't go unnoticed by agents, and what NextHome is doing to grow in the face of industry challenges. Here's what you'll learn: NextHome operates under a 'humans over houses' philosophy. 40% of growth comes from referrals and they don't require franchisees to recruit aggressively. The NAR settlement is just the beginning of changes in real estate commissions. Many agents lack training on new compensation structures post-NAR settlement. Dual agency presents significant conflicts of interest. NAR plays a crucial role in advocating for real estate professionals. Clear cooperation policies benefit the marketplace and consumers.

James Dwiggins, CEO of NextHome, discusses the impact of the NAR settlement on the real estate industry. He shares that companies that were prepared and ahead of the changes have been able to navigate the new rules effectively. However, many are still struggling to understand and adapt to the changes.Dwiggins predicts a 20-40% exodus of real estate agents due to the decoupling of compensation. He emphasizes the importance of educating sellers on the benefits of not offering buyer compensation upfront and instead considering all offers based on net proceeds. He also highlights the role of loan officers in helping buyers finance agent fees when the seller is not paying.There may be a 20-40% exodus of real estate agents due to the decoupling of compensation.Educating sellers on the benefits of not offering buyer compensation upfront can lead to better net proceeds.Loan officers play a crucial role in helping buyers finance agent fees when the seller is not paying.

Her trajectory led her through different positions, each more challenging and rewarding than the last, culminating in her role as Vice President of Sales at NextHome.

I could have been, you know, one of the first people, you know, in my family to go to college, you know, but it's like, well, yeah, but you went in the military, like, that's an achievement.
