You're going to learn why this has frozen the entire housing market for buyers and sellers alike, and why buying rental properties might be a better option for anyone who wants to enter the housing market.

    Investing in private markets has become one of the most sought-after opportunities for sophisticated investors. But while venture capital has created extraordinary wealth for some investors, success isn't simply about finding the next great startup. That's why I'm excited to have Yotis Tonnelier on the podcast. Yotis is the co-founder and managing partner of YXS Capital, a venture capital firm focused on later-stage technology companies where he has delivered a 14.6x gross TVPI with zero losses across 14+ companies, and backed five unicorns including Mercury, Canva, and Wise.After exiting multiple businesses of his own, Yotis has developed a unique investment approach that combines the discipline of private equity with the growth potential of venture capital by helping identify high-quality companies long before they become household names.In this conversation, we discuss the growing role of secondary markets, the sectors Yotis believes offer the greatest long-term opportunities, and the principles that have shaped his investment philosophy throughout his career.In this episode, you'll learn: ✅ Why Yotis believes investing after product-market fit can dramatically improve your odds of success while still capturing venture-level returns.✅ How relationships, reputation, and trust helped him create access to some of the world's most sought-after private investments✅ Why aligning incentives between fund managers and investors may be one of the biggest competitive advantages in venture capital today.Show Notes: LifestyleInvestor.com/303Tax Strategy MasterclassIf you're interested in learning more about Tax Strategy and how YOU can apply 28 of the best, most effective strategies right away, check out our BRAND NEW Tax Strategy Masterclass: www.lifestyleinvestor.com/taxStrategy Session For a limited time, my team is hosting free, personalized consultation calls to learn more about your goals and determine which of our courses or masterminds will get you to the next level.

    Send us Fan MailAI is making real estate faster, smarter, and easier to scale - but it's also making fraud cheaper, faster, and more convincing. The agents and brokerages that win next may not be the ones using the most AI, but the ones consumers trust with their money.Gary Pickren lays out the new reality real estate professionals are walking into, where fabricated emails, cloned voices, manipulated documents, and AI-generated video can all be used to fool buyers, sellers, and even seasoned teams. The upside is real. So is the risk.You'll hear how AI is already improving marketing, communication, research, contract review, scheduling, and transaction management, while simultaneously raising the stakes around identity, verification, and client protection. The conversation centers on a critical shift: technology can accelerate your business, but trust is what will separate the companies people choose.You'll discover why deception is becoming more accessible than ever, what that means for real estate operations, and how forward-thinking firms can build systems that protect clients before a problem happens. Gary also explains why confidence alone is no longer enough - modern consumers want proof that you have safeguards in place.If you work in real estate, lead a brokerage, or care about how AI is reshaping high-trust industries, this is essential listening. It's a wake-up call about the future of the business and a reminder that in an AI world, trust is becoming the ultimate competitive advantage.You'll learn about:• The difference between fraud detection and fraud-resistant design• Why "recognition is not authentication"• The Transaction Trust Ceremony• Transaction verification passphrases• The Two-Channel Rule• Why financial instructions should never change by email alone• Protecting employees from AI-powered social engineering• Protecting your digital identity• Creating a Zero-Trust Closing• The S.T.O.P. fraud-prevention framework• Five changes REALTORS® can make immediately• Risk-tiering transactions for attorneys, lenders and title companiesAnd remember the simplest rule from this episode:MONEY MOVES = TWO CHANNELS.If money is moving or financial instructions suddenly change, stop and independently verify before acting.If this episode could protect one agent, buyer, seller, lender or closing professional from fraud, share it with someone in the industry.#RealEstate #ArtificialIntelligence #AIFraud #RealEstateFraud #WireFraud #Cybersecurity #Realtor #RealEstateAgent #ClosingAttorney #MortgageFraud #Deepfake #RealEstateTechnology #DishinDirtDon't forget to like us and share us!Gary* Gary serves on the South Carolina Real Estate Commission as a Commissioner.

    A North Sydney agent brawl, a $1.2 million cyber scam near miss, and a court battle over property deposits: the latest real estate drama goes well beyond the auction floor. On Real Estate Exposed, Liam Garman and Emilie Lauer examine some of the industry's most contentious stories, from alleged agent misconduct to cyber security threats and the fight over who should hold property deposits. The pair discuss an alleged altercation involving rival agents on Sydney's Lower North Shore, and what public incidents like this can mean for professional reputations in an increasingly competitive market. They also look at a near miss involving a $1.2 million settlement redirection scam, highlighting how a sophisticated email fraud was stopped before the funds disappeared and why real estate businesses remain vulnerable to cyber crime. The conversation then turns to the growing debate around third-party trust accounts and "deposit flicking", following an NSW Supreme Court case that has reignited questions over transparency, consent, and the handling of property deposits. With regulators reviewing the rules, the episode examines what the case could mean for agencies and the future of third-party arrangements. Did you like this episode?

    What if the biggest problem in your business isn't marketing, sales, or finance—but the way you think and behave? In this episode, Gino Barbaro explores the concept of business archetypes and how unconscious patterns, beliefs, and emotional responses can influence the way you lead, make decisions, and grow your business. There are 10 different business archetypes, including the Rebel, Warrior, Servant Leader, Gambler, Novice, Inventor, Dictator, Conservator, Entrepreneur, and Master. None of them are inherently good or bad. The key is understanding how each archetype shows up in your behavior—and recognizing when one may be helping you or holding you back. Gino shares personal examples from his restaurant and real estate journey, including how the Conservator and Novice archetypes affected his ability to grow and scale. He also explains how activating the Warrior mindset helped him develop a growth mindset, learn new systems, and move beyond the limitations of his previous experience. Ask yourself: • Which business archetype sounds most like you? • Where has this archetype helped you succeed? • Where has it become a liability? • What behavior do you need to change to take your business to the next level? The goal isn't to become a different person. It's to become more self-aware—so you can recognize the patterns influencing your decisions and consciously choose how you want to respond. Want to discover all 10 business archetypes? Email Gino at Gino@JakeandGino.com to receive the full list and characteristics of each archetype. Watch the full episode to dive deeper into business behavior, leadership, self-awareness, and the mindset required to grow your business. 00:00 – What If the Biggest Problem in Your Business Is You? 00:45 – What Are Business Archetypes? 02:00 – How Unconscious Behaviors Affect Your Business 03:00 – Gino's Personal Experience With Business Archetypes 05:00 – The Rebel Archetype 07:00 – The Warrior Archetype 08:30 – The Servant Leader Archetype 09:30 – The Gambler Archetype 11:00 – The Novice Archetype 13:00 – The Inventor Archetype 14:30 – How Archetypes Impact Business Decisions 15:30 – The Dictator Archetype 17:00 – The Conservator Archetype 18:30 – The Entrepreneur Archetype 20:00 – The Master Archetype 22:00 – How the Archetypes Work Together 23:00 – 4 Questions to Identify Your Business Archetype 25:00 – What Behaviors Are Holding Your Business Back? 26:30 – Your Business Isn't the Problem—Your Patterns Are 27:30 – Final Thoughts & Next Episode

    Mark and Keeley Toro didn't set out to build one of Tampa's most recognized real estate and development brands. It started with a bet Mark made on himself, walking away from corporate America with no guarantee it would work, and the discipline it took to turn that risk into a real business.   Today, Mark and Keeley run a design-driven real estate and development company in Tampa's urban core, known for full gut renovations that turn overlooked properties into standout homes. They've also built a mastermind community of local investors, all while running the business together as husband and wife.   We get into: The moment Mark decided to leave corporate America and what that bet actually looked like Their best deal, and what made it work so well Their worst deal, and the lessons that came out of it the hard way What it takes to build a real estate business as partners, both in life and in business How they built a design-first brand that stands out in a crowded market   If you've ever thought about betting on yourself but weren't sure you had the stomach for it, this conversation is proof it can be done, and what it actually costs to do it.

Keep winning! Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Attorney S. Diane Clair. A Georgia-based attorney, real estate law professor at Kennesaw State University, and founder of a law practice specializing in real estate, estate planning, probate, business, and contract law. The discussion focuses on wealth building through real estate investing, asset protection, and estate planning strategies for generational wealth. [S. DIANE CLAIR | Txt] Purpose of the Interview The primary purpose of the interview was to: Educate listeners about real estate investing opportunities, including lesser-known strategies such as tax liens and tax deeds. [S. DIANE CLAIR | Txt] Stress the importance of working with qualified legal professionals instead of relying on Google, social media, AI tools, or generic legal templates. [S. DIANE CLAIR | Txt] Promote wealth preservation through estate planning, particularly trusts and business structures. [S. DIANE CLAIR | Txt] Encourage minority communities to create estate plans and pass wealth to future generations. [S. DIANE CLAIR | Txt] Key Takeaways 1. Don't Rely Solely on Google, Social Media, or AI for Legal Advice Clair warns that many individuals attempt to create wills, trusts, and legal documents online without professional guidance. She emphasizes that legal matters require experienced attorneys because AI and internet sources may provide incomplete or incorrect information. [S. DIANE CLAIR | Txt] Why it Matters Legal mistakes can create costly problems later. AI-generated content can be inaccurate. Estate planning and real estate transactions require professional review. [S. DIANE CLAIR | Txt] 2. Real Estate Is a Powerful Wealth-Building Tool Clair argues that real estate remains one of the strongest ways to build and transfer wealth between generations. She highlights its relative stability compared to stock market fluctuations. [S. DIANE CLAIR | Txt] Benefits Mentioned Builds long-term wealth Generates passive income Creates assets that can be inherited Helps achieve financial freedom [S. DIANE CLAIR | Txt] 3. Start Real Estate Investing Through a Business Entity One of Clair's first recommendations is to establish a legal business structure before purchasing investment properties. Recommended Structures LLC Corporation Other formal business entities [S. DIANE CLAIR | Txt] She repeatedly stresses that investment assets ideally should not be owned in an individual's personal name. [S. DIANE CLAIR | Txt] 4. You Don't Need Large Amounts of Money to Invest A major myth she debunks is that real estate investing requires significant capital. Entry-Level Strategies Tax liens Tax deeds Foreclosure purchases Fix-and-flip projects Rental properties [S. DIANE CLAIR | Txt] According to Clair, investors can begin with relatively small amounts by purchasing tax liens and earning interest when property owners redeem them. [S. DIANE CLAIR | Txt] 5. Estate Planning Is Largely Ignored Clair shares a startling statistic: Approximately 64% of Americans do not have an estate plan. Among minorities, that number rises to about 70%. [S. DIANE CLAIR | Txt] She believes the problem is educational rather than financial, noting that even wealthy celebrities frequently fail to plan their estates. [S. DIANE CLAIR | Txt] 6. Trusts Are Better Than Wills for Many Situations Clair strongly favors trusts, especially irrevocable trusts, as vehicles for preserving wealth. Advantages of Trusts Avoid probate Potential tax benefits Asset protection Easier transfer of wealth Can operate while the creator is still alive [S. DIANE CLAIR | Txt] Difference Between a Will and a Trust Will Takes effect after death Goes through probate court Directs distribution of assets [S. DIANE CLAIR | Txt] Trust Can function during the owner's lifetime Avoids probate Can provide stronger protection and tax advantages [S. DIANE CLAIR | Txt] 7. Asset Protection Is Essential Clair explains that trusts can own: Real estate Bank accounts Businesses Investments Other valuable assets [S. DIANE CLAIR | Txt] Because the trust, rather than the individual, owns the property, there can be additional protection from lawsuits and claims. [S. DIANE CLAIR | Txt] Notable Quotes On Legal Services Beyond Personal Injury Law "You can hire lawyers for way more, and we can assist you in way more." [S. DIANE CLAIR | Txt] On Using AI for Legal Matters "AI is not really something you want to trust... It creates and makes up stuff." [S. DIANE CLAIR | Txt] On Professional Guidance "You want to book a consultation with an attorney." [S. DIANE CLAIR | Txt] On Real Estate Investing "A lot of people have that misconception that you have to have a lot of money to start investing in real estate, and that's not true." [S. DIANE CLAIR | Txt] On Generational Wealth "Real estate is something that is the best thing to invest in and pass down to future generations." [S. DIANE CLAIR | Txt] On Estate Planning "This is not a money thing... It's an education thing." [S. DIANE CLAIR | Txt] On Trusts "The best estate planning instrument is always going to be a trust." [S. DIANE CLAIR | Txt] On Asset Ownership "Don't have anything in your own name, have it in the name of the trust or in the business." [S. DIANE CLAIR | Txt] Overall Message Attorney Diane Clair's central message is that wealth creation and wealth preservation must work together. Building assets through real estate is important, but equally important is protecting those assets through proper business structures, trusts, estate planning, and professional legal guidance. The interview encourages listeners, especially entrepreneurs and minority communities, to think long term about generational wealth, asset protection, and financial legacy rather than short-term gains.

Despite completing nearly 700 value-add properties, he openly admits he has never liked the work of real estate—he simply built systems, processes, and teams so he doesn't have to do it himself. A straight-talking operator focused on financial freedom and education, Tarl also helps raise millions for veteran charities through his events.TIMESTAMPS0:40 - Welcome to the Mailbox Money Show1:20 - How Events Transformed Nate's Career & Network2:36 - Origin Story of Limitless Expo3:43 - Why Host a Nearly $2M Event Despite the Pain5:21 - Creating Events You Actually Want to Attend7:22 - Best Way to Leverage High-Level Events9:05 - What NOT to Do When Approaching High-Value People13:56 - Why Limitless Exists: Education Over Selling16:14 - Raising Millions for Charity Through Limitless17:39 - “I Hate Real Estate” – Building an Empire Anyway18:46 - Building Systems So You Don't Have to Do the Work20:36 - Limits of True Passivity in Value-Add Real Estate22:42 - Private Lending & Investing in Operators24:32 - 1031 Strategies for More Passive Assets26:51 - Critical Tips for Successful Out-of-State Investing30:15 - Nate's Takeaway: Success Despite Hating the Work30:52 - Bronson's Takeaway: Systems, “Who Not How,” and Buying Back Time31:43 - Episode Wrap-Up & ClosingCONNECT WITH THE GUESTWebsite: https://www.tarlyarber.com/Instagram: @tarlyarberLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tarl-yarber-7584a847/#MailboxMoney#RealEstateInvesting#LimitlessExpo#PassiveIncome#EventNetworking

    Infertility? IVF is not the only option. In this episode of The Dr. Jennifer Roback Morse Show, Dr. J sits down with Emma Waters of The Heritage Foundation to discuss IVF, infertility, donor conception, surrogacy, frozen embryos, and restorative reproductive medicine — a humane alternative that seeks to treat the underlying causes of infertility rather than ignore or bypass them.

They also discuss the larger cultural picture: the separation of sex, babies, and marriage; the ethics of donor conception and surrogacy; the trauma of frozen embryos; the Alabama IVF case; the question of whether anyone has a "right to a child"; and why the pro-life movement must take reproductive technology seriously. Emma Waters is a Senior Policy Analyst in the Center for Technology and the Human Person at The Heritage Foundation. Her work focuses on family, biotechnology, and reproductive medicine. She is the author of Lead Like Jael: Seven Timeless Principles for Today's Women of Faith and the forthcoming book Rethinking Fertility: The Package Deal of Marriage, Sex, and Procreation.

    Zillow just cut more than 500 jobs while home sales are slowing and affordability remains near record-worst levels. But somehow, million-dollar home sales are surging. What kind of housing market is this? This week on **tWiRE: This Week in Real Estate**, we're looking at a housing market increasingly divided by income, geography and buying power, while some of the industry's biggest players fight over listings, access and even what it should mean to call yourself a REALTOR®. **In this episode, we'll cover:** • Zillow cutting roughly 7% of its workforce and what the restructuring may tell us about the portal's strategy and the broader real estate economy • Sen. Elizabeth Warren turning up the pressure on Compass and MRED over private listings, transparency, fair housing and competition • Howard Hanna's controversial proposal for a two-tier REALTOR® system where the title would have to be earned through experience and production • A federal appeals court handing NAR a significant victory in Homie's antitrust lawsuit • Home sales falling as mortgage rates climbed to their highest levels in roughly a year • The widening divide between the luxury market and first-time buyers, with million-dollar sales rising while entry-level buyers retreat • Why buyers in many markets suddenly have more time, choices, concessions and negotiating leverage • The strange affordability story: starter homes are becoming slightly easier to afford even while the typical American home still requires an income near $110,000 • Mortgage demand showing a little life again as rates finally stop their recent climb The national numbers may say "slow housing market," but that description is becoming less useful. Some buyers have leverage. Some buyers can't afford to participate at all. Some luxury markets are running hot. And the industry itself is still fighting over who gets access to listings and who controls the consumer. Join us live on YouTube!

    Fewer EPA headlines can feel like a green light, but environmental liability does not disappear when oversight fades. We sit down with CRC environmental specialists Harrison Scheider and Dustin Helmenstein to unpack the biggest misconception we hear from insureds and even seasoned agents: “less regulation means less environmental risk.” The laws that create liability largely remain, and the pollution exclusion in GL and property policies can turn an everyday incident into a painful coverage surprise.We dig into what makes environmental claims so tricky, and along the way, we connect the dots for common insured profiles including contractors, manufacturers, real estate owners, habitational and hotel risks, healthcare, and municipalities, plus what faster permitting and accelerated construction can change on the ground.To keep it practical, we share four questions retail agents can use right now to uncover exposures early, create better renewal conversations, and avoid relying on limited GL endorsements that are not true affirmative pollution coverage. If you want a clearer, more confident way to talk environmental insurance, pollution liability, and coverage gaps with clients, hit play and take notes.  Visit REDYIndex.com for critical pricing analysis and a snapshot of the marketplace.Do you want to take your career to the next level?

Manhattan and Brooklyn remain attractive for these types of assets.Rent Stabilized: This market faces significant struggles, with low trading volumes in outer boroughs like the Bronx, Queens, and Northern Manhattan. Factors contributing to this include a 0% rent increase, elevated interest rates and concerns regarding regulatory risks.Affordable Housing: Project-based Section 8 housing remains a premier asset class due to federal subsidies and stability. It represents about 10% of the overall transaction volume.Financing and Debt:For rent-stabilized assets, borrowers facing maturity are advised to engage lenders early to discuss potential modifications or extensions, as property values have changed significantly.Refinancing and acquisition financing remain available through agencies like Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, and CMBS, with some deals achieving 70–75% loan-to-value ratios.Future Outlook: The speakers anticipate an active second half of the year, with a strong contract pipeline pointing toward sustained or increased transaction volume in the third and fourth quarters. Despite the challenges in the rent-stabilized sector, there is notable seller motivation to transact if debt-related issues can be resolved.Access the full report here.

Rick Trimmer walks through the exact math he and his wife used to climb out of $640,000 in debt: the thousand-day stretch with no pay, the decade of living on a thousand dollars a month, and the brutal conversations he had with himself and his wife about what they actually wanted. If you're in the hole right now, or you're scared of ever being in it, this is the blueprint for how a man digs out without excuses and without quitting on his family. But this isn't just a comeback story; it's a lesson in delayed gratification and what winning the game really looks like. We'll cover how to build passive income, take advantage of opportunities that scare you, and chose freedom over the appearance of success. If you're tired of chasing a lifestyle you can't afford, or you're ready to start building something that actually lasts, this conversation gives you the mindset and the moves to get there.

    What do the most successful real estate agents consistently do differently from everyone else? In this episode of the Everything Real Estate Podcast, we take a 36,000-foot view of the real estate business with Brad Patt, Regional President of Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Fox & Roach, REALTORS® and The Trident Group. Brad occupies a unique seat in the industry. As regional president, he has the opportunity to observe the habits, strategies, mindsets, and business models of successful real estate professionals across multiple markets every day. That perspective gives him an invaluable look at what separates agents who consistently dominate from those who struggle to gain traction. Jason and Brad dig into the common traits of top-producing real estate agents, why consistency beats simply being "busy," the importance of relationships and prospecting, building a recognizable brand, differentiating yourself in a crowded marketplace, and treating your real estate career like the business it actually is. They also explore a simple but powerful question: If your real estate business were a brick-and-mortar store, why would someone walk through your door instead of the one next door? Whether you're a new agent building your foundation, an experienced REALTOR® looking to reach another level, or a top producer searching for your next competitive advantage, this conversation offers a macro view of the habits and decisions that drive long-term success.

    This week on Financial Planning: Explained, host Michael Menninger, CFP®, welcomes back Nick DeVito, CFP®, to walk through a practical estate planning and inheritance case study involving a daughter who is trying to piece together her late father's financial affairs. In this real-world scenario, the daughter is struggling to track down important assets, including her father's pension, 401(k), and life insurance policy. Even more concerning, she doesn't know whether she was named as a beneficiary—or who may have been designated to receive these assets. Mike and Nick explore the challenges families can face after the death of a loved one when financial accounts, beneficiary designations, and important documents aren't clearly organized or communicated. The discussion highlights why proactive estate planning and proper beneficiary designations are so important, and how a lack of planning can create unnecessary stress and uncertainty for surviving family members. The conversation provides practical insight into how families can better prepare for the transfer of wealth, locate financial assets, review beneficiary designations, and ensure their estate plan reflects their wishes. Listeners will gain valuable insight into: How to track down a deceased family member's pension, 401(k), and life insurance What happens when you don't know who the beneficiary is Why beneficiary designations are so important in estate planning Common problems families encounter after the death of a loved one How retirement accounts and insurance policies are transferred after death The importance of keeping financial records and account information organized Why beneficiary designations should be reviewed regularly How proactive estate planning can help prevent confusion and family stress What families should know about inheritance and wealth transfer How a comprehensive estate plan can help protect your family and assets Estate planning isn't just about deciding what happens to your assets—it's also about making sure your loved ones can find those assets and understand what to do with them when the time comes. This case study illustrates how missing information and outdated beneficiary designations can create significant challenges, and why having a clear plan in place can make the inheritance process much smoother. Whether you're creating your own estate plan, helping aging parents organize their finances, or preparing to pass wealth on to the next generation, this episode offers practical insights and real-world considerations to help you plan ahead.

    Real estate experts Michael Zuber and Jason Hartman analyze common reasons why aspiring investors fail to achieve success. They argue that direct ownership is superior to passive syndications because it prevents investors from being exploited by dishonest or incompetent managers. They emphasize finding a "middle path" between over-analyzing data and being recklessly impulsive, suggesting that true wealth requires a decade-long commitment rather than a "shooting star" mentality. To succeed, individuals must focus their capital on a specific asset class while maintaining geographic diversity across three to five markets. Finally, they stress the importance of standardizing financial data and mastering the math of a "buy box" to objectively identify profitable deals.

    This week, we are pulling back the curtain on the real numbers behind our long‑term rental portfolios—and the myths about quitting your W‑2 to “live off real estate” that female investors are constantly sold online. We share how we both left our full-time jobs, why active income (flips, side businesses, WIIRE, etc.) was critical, and what it actually looked like to live well below our means while our rentals slowly grew. We walk through real deals—including single‑family rentals in small‑town Iowa and a small multifamily triplex—breaking down purchase prices, cash flow, refinances, negative cash flow decisions, and long‑term appreciation plays. You'll hear: Why most investors can't replace a full‑time income with long‑term rentals in 2–5 years How we used cash‑out refis and BRRRR strategies to scale and access tax‑advantaged capital The role of tenant quality and neighborhood class in your real cash flow When a $300–$500/month cash‑flowing rental is actually a great deal—and when it's not worth your time We also talk about the power of community. If you've ever underwritten a deal alone at midnight with no one to sanity‑check the numbers, this episode will show you what's possible when you stop investing in isolation and start surrounding yourself with other ambitious women in real estate.       Resources: Book your spot at WIIRE Summer Camp before it fills up Simplify how you manage your rentals with TurboTenant Make sure your name is on the list to secure your spot in The WIIRE Community  Leave us a review on Apple Podcasts Leave us a review on Spotify Join our private Facebook Community Connect with us on Instagram

    Recorded live at the 2026 Glover U Live Unreal Retreat in Traverse City, Michigan, Jeff Glover sits down with real estate top producer and trainer Shawna Joyce, Director of Training at RE/MAX Results. With 11 years of experience in real estate, Shawna shares her journey from becoming involved with Glover U and working with Glover U Coach Jacqui to becoming a leader and trainer responsible for helping agents take their businesses to the next level. Shawna discusses the lessons she learned through coaching, the Happiness Advantage, and how those experiences ultimately helped shape her path into real estate training. She also breaks down how SalesRocket has impacted her own business and how she uses the program to help the agents she trains generate more business and take consistent action. One of the most valuable parts of the conversation is Shawna's unique approach to implementing SalesRocket. She explains how she keeps agents engaged beyond the program, creates accountability, and gets them to actually execute what they learn. And the results speak for themselves — Shawna shares examples of agents who have increased their business by more than 60% and another whose business has grown by 200%. If you're a real estate agent, team leader, broker, or coach looking for proven strategies for real estate lead generation, sales training, accountability, prospecting, and business growth, this conversation is packed with actionable insights.
