What if some of your best real estate opportunities aren't traditional leads—they're people with problems you can actually solve?In this solo episode, Chris shares how he went from making $25,000 a year in ministry to finding his first real estate deals by literally knocking on the doors of homeowners facing foreclosure. He explains how massive imperfect action helped him get started, why distressed properties became a foundation of his real estate business, and how agents can apply the same principles today.Chris breaks down two major sources of opportunity: building deep referral relationships with professionals like estate attorneys, financial planners, divorce attorneys, and CPAs, and using curated data to identify homeowners who may be more likely to need real estate help.

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 does it take to build a successful real estate business when you already have a full-time career, a family, and limited time?In this episode of Push Success Stories, David Radney talks with Shaneera, a dual-career real estate agent, wife, and mother of two who is determined to transition from her corporate career into real estate full-time.Shaneera shares the honest reality behind building a real estate business while working a 9-to-5—from waking up early and prospecting during work breaks to managing buyers, following up with leads, building her database, and staying consistent through rejection and deals that fall apart.She also explains how social media prospecting, Instagram DMs, circle prospecting, mailers, CRM follow-up, and staying connected with her sphere have helped her generate real estate opportunities without needing to go viral.Shaneera's story is a reminder that success doesn't always happen quickly—but consistent effort eventually creates results.If you're a new REALTOR®, dual-career agent, working parent, aspiring listing agent, or real estate professional looking to transition into the business full-time, this episode will give you an honest and motivating look at what it takes.The goal isn't to avoid the NOs. The goal is to get through the NOs until you reach the YES.

With 60 days until our next event, I'm asking a bigger question: What standards should a private lending conference actually hold to?There are more conferences than ever, but are they creating enough value for lenders, sponsors and attendees?I'm laying out what we're trying to do differently, challenging some of the norms in the industry, and getting my dad's perspective after 20 years of building one of the biggest brands in private lending.The 60-day countdown starts now.

This episode of Property and Paper Live explores what Dawn calls the Landlord Liberation Method—using seller financing and installment sales to help longtime landlords turn rental property equity into ongoing income while potentially deferring a significant portion of their capital gains taxes. Dawn walks through a real-world example of a landlord who bought a rental for $50,000 that's now worth $250,000 and compares the potential tax impact of selling for cash versus taking 20% down and carrying the remaining balance. She also discusses why understanding the connection between real estate, seller financing, and the secondary note market opens up creative possibilities that many landlords, investors, and real estate professionals simply don't know exist.

We'd love to hear from you. What are your thoughts and questions?After surviving the 2008 financial crisis, Chris Prefontaine realized that conventional real estate investing was a trap. By shifting to a model focused on long-term resilience, he shares how any professional can create wealth that works independently of their time.Main Points:Adopt the “three paydays” approach to capture income upfront, monthly, and at the end of the investment term.Prioritize non-bankable deals to gain leverage and protection during volatile market shifts.Shift away from conventional, time-for-money real estate models that function like high-stress jobs.Utilize current market data to identify off-market, free-and-clear properties ripe for creative structuring.Navigate economic uncertainty by working with mentors who have experienced multiple financial cycles.Connect with Chris Prefontaine:chrispre37@gmail.comwww.smartrealestatecoach.com

Most real estate coaching tells you to grind 24/7. I tried that. I closed 52 solo transactions in a single year, and it almost broke me.In this episode, I break down the exact mistakes that cost me years of time and thousands of dollars as a solo agent, along with the systems I built to transition from a burnt-out salesperson into a strategic business operator.

On the August 1, 2026 episode of the Hardcore Mortgage Real Estate & Business Show, we welcomed Curt Shewell of eXp Realty for an insightful discussion on today's real estate market. Curt shared his expertise on current housing trends, market conditions, and valuable strategies for buyers and sellers navigating an evolving Michigan real estate landscape.Whether you're looking to purchase your first home, sell a property, or stay informed on the latest real estate developments, this episode delivers practical advice and industry knowledge from a trusted real estate professional.

Free throws: the unglamorous, repeatable shot that anybody can practice and that the best players in the world drill every single day. The Market Impact Report is that to your real estate business and most agents are not putting in the reps.In this conversation, we unpack what an MIR actually is (a report that shows how the market has impacted someone's home value over time, not a comparative market analysis and not an estimate), the three-layer "lasagna" build (FHFA national and state data, MLS area stats, similar neighborhood sales), why adding an estimated value turns an MIR into a CMA and quietly kills the intention behind it. Even if you are a rookie with zero closings you can start doing these tomorrow. This is the most learnable, most repeatable, lowest-barrier business builder in real estate. It comes down to keeping it simple, sending them out consistently, and letting the frequency of value delivered do what it's supposed to do. Done right, MIRs become the practice that separates the agents who scramble every year from the ones who never worry about where the next listing is coming from.

Everyone's saying the real estate market is “down,” “slow,” and “impossible” for first-time buyers—but is that the whole truth? In this episode of The Session with Londa and David, we talk candidly about what a “down market” really is, how top agents are adapting, and why your relationships and habits will matter more than headlines in the months ahead. 3 Business Takeaways: 1. Skill and Effort Matter More in a Slow Market When transaction volume drops, average effort no longer works. You need stronger sales skills, deeper service to clients, and a willingness to “do what you'd never do before” (like rolling up your sleeves to solve problems on-site). 2. Down Markets Reward Long-Term Thinkers Professionals who've built referrals, multiple income “oars in the water,” and good money habits are less shaken by slowdowns. A rough month or year hurts less when you've planned for cycles instead of assuming endless growth. 3. Connections Create Opportunities (and Stability) In uncertain markets, isolation is a liability. Networking, genuine conversations, and community—dinners, broker opens, deeper talks—lead to both emotional support and new business. As David says, “You've got to circulate to percolate.” #DownMarket #RealEstateBusiness #RelationshipMarketing #SalesMindset #TheSessionWithLondaAndDavid

If you've ever scheduled a contractor for a client repair, managed a make-ready before a listing, or spent an afternoon coordinating vendors so a seller could get to market faster, you've already done the work of a renovation business. You just haven't been getting paid for it.Holly Torri figured that out and built a business around it. She's a fifth-generation DFW resident and the founder of Torri Realty, a boutique independent brokerage in the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex where she still produces, coaches her own agents, and deliberately keeps her roster between 7 and 15. Alongside the brokerage, she runs property management and a make-ready and renovation company, a separate LLC she built from the vendor network she'd already been managing for years. The same crews have been showing up for a decade, in part because she pays them the same day every time. Her renovation business tends to pick up exactly when the sales market slows down, which means she's evened out her revenue flows.In this conversation, Holly walks you through how the three businesses fit together, what it took to go from an informal vendor network to a formalized operation, and what she's learned in six years of running an intentionally small indie brokerage her way.Watch or listen for Holly's insights into:0:00 Intro and welcome2:46 Why your online presence and your in-person presence need to tell the same story 4:29 How a relocation, a career pivot into real estate, and two years inside a property management company shaped the brokerage she eventually built 8:33 What Torri Realty looks like today and why she built it to stay small 9:56 Why she chose indie over franchise and what becomes possible when you retain full control over culture and standards 15:10 How to structure a week as a producing broker who also coaches agents and runs two other businesses 18:17 Why your ops person doesn't need a real estate license, and what happened when Holly finally found the right support with someone who had never sold a house 22:15 How the make-ready and renovation business started and why it tends to pick up exactly when the sales market slows down 28:00 How to turn an informal vendor network into a real business: separate LLC, negotiated rates, project plans, and the payment philosophy that's kept the same crews coming back for a decade 30:26 How to position make-ready and renovation services to other agents without making them feel like you're competing for their clients 36:17 What a high acceptance rate on Zillow Pro sphere connections looks like in practice, and why it's a manual process not a mass one 41:09 What she would tell an agent on the fence about starting a team or going indie 43:17 At the end, hear about a laminated $18.39 electricity bill, vintage Pyrex, Mahjong tiles, and a Monument Valley road trip with no plan and no cell service.Check out Zillow Pro:→ https://www.zillow.com/agents/zillow-pro/Connect with Holly Torri and Torri Realty: → https://www.facebook.com/holly.torri→ https://www.instagram.com/hollytorrirealty/→ https://www.facebook.com/torrirealty→ https://www.instagram.com/torri_realty/Connect with Real Estate Team OS:→ https://www.realestateteamos.com→ https://linktr.ee/realestateteamos→ https://www.instagram.com/realestateteamos/

What are people arriving today getting wrong that you got wrong when you first moved to the area? In this episode of the Real Estate Excellence Podcast, Tracy Hayes sits down with Robyn Cavallaro. Robyn Cavallaro is a real estate professional, author, educator, and local authority who has completed more than 300 transactions and surpassed 100 million dollars in sales while serving buyers and sellers in The Villages, Florida. After a failed coffeehouse placed her in bankruptcy at 56, she moved to Florida, earned her real estate license during the pandemic, and rebuilt her life using a phone, free editing tools, and a commitment to answering the questions buyers were already asking. Robyn explains how educational YouTube videos created a pipeline without paid leads, Zillow, or print advertising. She also shares why authenticity creates trust, how relocation planning calls and community tours strengthen client relationships, why agents must take responsibility for their own education, and how books, artificial intelligence, customer systems, and consistent follow up helped her become a trusted authority in a highly competitive market.

The meeting focused on real estate investing, with an emphasis on notes, seller financing, and creative deal structures. David shared his background in real estate and notes, and participants like Ben, MaryAnn, Jay, and Carl discussed their experiences with contract for deed, lease options, midterm rentals, and working with agents. The group talked about the challenges and benefits of different states and markets, including California, Colorado, Missouri, Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Georgia, Chicago, and the Southwest. They covered topics such as lead generation for notes, the use of LOIs, carrying commissions as notes, and the role of real estate agents in creative transactions. David explained a recent reverse 1031 exchange he helped with, and several members shared insights on estate planning, property management, and market trends. The conversation also touched on the current stock market, the role of high-net-worth individuals in certain markets, and the evolving landscape of real estate investing strategies.

On the July 25, 2026 episode of the Hardcore Mortgage Real Estate & Business Show, we welcomed Ed Brittingham of RE/MAX Eclipse for an engaging discussion about Michigan's real estate market.Ed shared his expert perspective on current housing trends, market conditions, and valuable insights for both buyers and sellers navigating today's ever-changing real estate landscape. From market opportunities to challenges facing homeowners and prospective purchasers, this episode provides practical information for anyone interested in Michigan real estate.

David Richter, author of Profit First for Real Estate Investing and founder of Simple CFO, makes a blunt case in this solo episode: if you don't have a real reserve strategy, you don't have a real business. He walks through why most investors drain their accounts chasing the next deal and what that costs them a decade in.This episode reframes cash reserves as a growth tool rather than money sitting idle, covering how lenders view financial stability, why you should grow from reserves instead of revenue, and how one Profit First implementation gave a business owner six months of reserves for the first time in his life. If you're closing deals but living deal to deal, this one is for you.Timeline Summary[0:26] – The opening claim that a business without a reserve strategy isn't a real business[0:48] – Why real estate investors resist reserves and prefer every dollar out in deals[1:09] – Draining accounts for deals may scale you fast but won't build something that lasts[1:46] – Reserves as fire prevention instead of endless firefighting in your business[2:11] – The mastermind line that convicted David: if you're always fighting fires, you're the arsonist[2:35] – Without systems and people, you're constantly behind the eight ball on cash decisions[2:54] – The three questions you can't answer without a system: reinvest, pay yourself, or taxes[3:12] – Living deal to deal instead of paycheck to paycheck and what that does over ten years[3:29] – Why Profit First is fundamentally a reserve strategy for knowing where every dollar goes[4:05] – What lenders actually want to see and why zeroed out accounts kill your credibility[4:22] – Becoming the fire preventer instead of the firefighter through a clear cash system[4:43] – You took the chance on yourself, so the business should give you financial freedom[5:12] – Grow from your reserves, not from your revenue, and stop recycling the top line[5:33] – Where to find Profit First and the real estate investing edition David wrote[5:49] – A business owner who implemented one teaching and built six months of reserves[6:07] – Reserves as both financial peace of mind and a tool for profitable growth5 Key TakeawaysReserves Are Fire Prevention — If you're constantly putting out fires in your business, the lack of a cash buffer is what keeps lighting them. Reserves stop the emergencies before they start.Living Deal To Deal Is A Trap — Closing a deal, dropping the cash in the bank, and repeating for a decade leaves you broke with nothing to show. Volume without a system doesn't build wealth.Lenders Fund Financial Stability — Savvy investors and lenders don't want to see accounts drained to zero on every deal. Reserves make you fundable, which means reserves help you grow.Grow From Reserves, Not Revenue — Plowing every dollar of top line back into the business just recycles revenue. Real scale comes from a reserve cycle that keeps building.One Change Can Create Six Months — A business owner who had lived in financial chaos his whole career implemented a single Profit First teaching and built six months of reserves within a year.Links & ResourcesSimple CFO — https://simplecfo.comProfit First for Real Estate Investing by David Richter — https://profitfirstrei.comProfit First by Mike Michalowicz — https://mikemichalowicz.com/profit-firstEnjoyed This Episode?If the line about being the arsonist in your own business landed a little too close to home, that's the wake up call.

Alyssa explains why simply having a website is no longer enough, emphasizing the importance of creating a professional online presence with a clear brand voice, customized content, strong SEO, AI optimization, and lead capture tools that work together to support every marketing effort. The hosts also introduce new website packages, AI-powered features, and educational resources designed to help agents stand out in competitive niche markets. The conversation also highlights the launch of a free 12-week Probate Mastery training series for active subscribers and concludes with an in-depth discussion on building stronger relationships with probate attorneys. The coaches share practical strategies for creating long-term referral partnerships by leading with value, providing helpful resources, and consistently positioning yourself as a trusted expert who makes an attorney's job easier. Key Takeaways Your website should be a growth tool, not just an online brochure.

After nearly 25 in real estate sales, Jaclyn Barker found her next right fit, joining Tiffany Williamson at Navigate Realty as a full-time recruiter.Over the past few years, Navigate has grown from roughly 80 agents across two North Carolina markets to approximately 400 agents in seven active locations, with Tennessee getting ready to launch. In Raleigh alone, the team is bringing in 15 to 20 new agents a month. None of this growth came through cold calls, robo-calls, or robo-texts. As Jaclyn says in this conversation, “I despise cold calling … it's just not my thing.”Watch or listen to have Jaclyn walk you through the philosophy, process, and system behind this growth. Learn why she treats recruiting exactly the way a great agent treats a client relationship, why she insists on in-person interviews of at least an hour with every candidate, and why she'll sometimes tell someone they're not ready to make the jump yet. Find out what it looks like to build a recruiting function from scratch, when to make your first recruiting hire, and why retention is the half of the equation most teams ignore.Watch or listen for Jaclyn's insights into:0:00 Intro and welcome 2:25 How drive shows up early in a recruiting conversation if you know what to look for 3:38 Why recruiting and real estate sales are the same kind of people business, built on discovery and fit rather than pitching 5:33 How a long career in real estate, a difficult market, and one conversation with Tiffany Williamson led to a full-time recruiting role 10:30 What Navigate Realty looked like when she joined versus what it looks like today 12:36 The interview that shaped her entire approach, and what she decided she would never do to a candidate 18:06 Why net agent count is the only number that matters, and what it means for how you think about retention 20:53 How the recruiting function has scaled alongside Navigate's growth, and what triggered each new hire 23:28 Why she spends at least an hour with every candidate and what that kind of time in the room actually reveals25:47 What an ATS is, why you need one, and how they selected their applicant tracking system (ATS!)27:51 The recruiting process from first contact to offer, and why in-person interviews are non-negotiable 33:30 “I despise cold calling” - why building something worth joining eventually becomes your most powerful recruiting tool 38:15 When to hire a full-time in-house recruiter, and the investment logic that makes it worth it 40:50 Why being honest with candidates about how hard real estate is makes her better at recruiting, not worse 46:41 At the end, Jaclyn reveals how a frugal instinct went sideways, when her Apple Watch triggers, and why true crime podcasts share equal car time with real estate podcasts.Related episodes:→ 90-Minute Recruiting Workshop (sign up free for all the subscriber-only episodes)→ When, Why, and How to Build Your Recruiting Department with Tiffany WilliamsonConnect with Jaclyn Barker and Navigate Realty: → https://navigaterealty.com/join/Connect with Real Estate Team OS:→ https://www.realestateteamos.com→ https://linktr.ee/realestateteamos→ https://www.instagram.com/realestateteamos/

You've been told to build systems. You've been told to automate. You've been told the agents who scale are the ones who don't do everything manually. All of that is true. And there is one thing you should never, ever put on autopilot. And if you're doing it right now, you're not building your business. You're quietly wearing it down.In this conversation, we get into the one category of client touch that has to stay personal, no matter how big your database gets.This is about doing the right things in the right places. It comes down to automating the value delivery (reports, data, information the client can use) and leaving the emotional moments alone.Done right, your clients feel seen instead of processed, and the referral machine you've been trying to build actually starts to spin.Join us in the 11 Circle for weekly coaching with Matt and Garrett, additional resources, and full access to our online community.

Keith Gillispie deployed overseas 13 times as an active duty Marine. His kids didn't know who he was. That was the moment he decided real estate would be his path to financial freedom and time with his family. Now he runs two companies, coaches high-income W-2 earners and military investors, and has helped hundreds of investors build businesses that run on systems instead of chaos.   In this episode, Chris sits down with Keith, founder of REI Automated, to talk about what it actually takes to build a real estate business when you are strapped for time. Keith works primarily with active duty military, first responders, executives, and other high-demand professionals who are making good money but have no time to spare. His answer to that problem is automation, and his platform has systematized more than 90% of the repetitive, time-consuming tasks that keep most investors stuck in the weeds.   Keith also breaks down the three ingredients every investor needs to succeed: the right education, the right systems, and the right support. He explains why most people in the so-called coaching space are not actually coaches, how to vet who you learn from, and why asking for help is the one thing most former military investors resist the longest.   One of his clients, an active duty naval officer carrying a full course load, closed his tenth deal in under a year. The excuse is not the issue. The system is.   Key Takeaways   Every business that has stood the test of time runs on systems. Once you build the right systems, you can automate the majority of your workflow and let a computer do the repetitive work so you can focus on what actually drives revenue. There are three ingredients you need to succeed in real estate: the right education, the right systems, and the right support. You can have the first two and still burn out or quit without someone in your corner who has been through it. Busy work that does not drive revenue will kill your business. Rule number one is keep revenue in first position. If what you are doing right now is not moving a deal forward, stop and get on the phone with sellers. Most people in the education space are not coaches. Before you invest in someone's program, find out if they are actively doing deals, not just talking about them. Real coaching comes from people who are still in the trenches. Success leaves clues, but you have to meet people where they are. If someone is in chapter 15 of their journey and you are in chapter one, do not copy what they are doing now. Ask them what they did at the beginning.   Key Talking Points of the Episode   00:00 Introduction 00:18 Who is Keith Gillispie? 01:50 Keith Gillispie's Background: From Active Duty Marine to Real Estate 04:41 Helping High-Income W-2 Earners and First Responders 05:36 The Importance of Systems and Automation in Business 06:58 Managing Business Through Virtual Assistants and Checklists 08:35 Learning Creative Financing and Other Strategies Beyond Wholesaling 09:23 Busy Work Vs.

Can we be honest for a second?You can be doing all the “right” things in your real estate business… and still feel overwhelmed, stretched, and low-key exhausted.More leads. More systems. More strategy. And somehow… still not at peace.That's why this conversation hit different.In this episode, I sat down with Kat West and we talked about what really shifts when you stop building your business your way… and start building it God's way.Not in a surface-level, “add a scripture to your caption” type of way… But in how you make decisions, how you structure your business, and how you show up every day.Kat shares how she went from striving and trying to hold everything together… to serving, letting go of control, and creating a business that actually supports her life.And what I love most is this: The strategy didn't radically change… but her posture did. And that changed everything.We talk about leverage, time, money, and what it really looks like to trust God as your provider—not just say it, but actually live it out.If you've been feeling like “there has to be a better way to do this”… this is your episode.✨ Connect with Kat: Instagram: https://instagram.com/katwestrealtor✨ Join the Bestie community: https://www.rosemarylewis.com/list✨ Six Figure Bestie (for agents building to $100K+): https://www.rosemarylewis.com/sixfigurebestieJoin the Six Figure Bestie, the community for women in real estate who are ready to build a six-figure business with Christ at the center.

From focusing on the parts of the process you can control, to elevating client communication, to protecting your own energy so you can be a true “step-down transformer” for emotional clients—this conversation is packed with practical mindset and business shifts you can use right now. 3 Business Takeaways: 1) Control the controllables, forget the rest You can't control interest rates or the broader market—but you can control your processes, your speed to close, your communication, and the experience you create for clients and partners. 2) Sell your process, not the market Instead of “selling rates,” sell your predictable, dialed-in system (like a 12.5-day average from submission to clear-to-close) and position yourself as the safest, smoothest choice in any market. 3) Protect your energy to serve at a higher level Putting on your own “oxygen mask” first—sleep, movement, nutrition, downtime, and doing one thing at a time—turns you into that “step-down transformer” who can absorb clients' high-voltage emotions and respond with calm, clarity, and leadership. #RealEstateBusiness #MortgagePros #EntrepreneurMindset #ClientExperience #SecondHalfStrategy

"Wet Blanket" might not immediately bring an idea to mind, but we would argue once you hear our definition at least one listing or client will come to mind immediately.In this conversation, we get into the "wet blanket" listings that quietly wreck your business, your energy, and your life. One of the beautiful things of this business is that you get to choose who you work with. You don't have to take every listing, The ones you say no to make room for the ones you were meant to serve. It comes down to laying out your process clearly upfront so the seller can opt in with full understanding, chasing what Matt calls the "unified yes" (where their yes and your yes are the same yes), and being willing to refer out the ones that aren't in alignment. Done right, you stop dragging comforters through your day and start running a business that actually fuels your life.Join at https://tentenths.coHosted by Matt Bonelli and Garrett Frey, Life at Ten Tenths.#realestate #realtor #realestateagent #realestatecoaching #realestatebusiness #listings #listingagent #realestatesuccess #burnout

Cole Ruud-Johnson is back, and we're not holding back. We kick things off with a wild story about a deal I almost gave away — a $30k lesson in patience, integrity, and why honoring your word is worth more than any single transaction. Then Cole and I get into what actually builds a lasting real estate business: reputation, relationships, and transparency. On AI: Cole breaks down what's actually useful (his Atlas system that pulls motivated seller leads daily — probates, pre-foreclosures, divorces, tax delinquents, and more) versus what's just noise. Spoiler: no AI agent is buying houses at scale in Bellevue. The money is still made in the room. If you're a real estate investor, wholesaler, or agent trying to build something that lasts — this one's worth your time. — Follow Cole: Instagram & YouTube: @coleruddjohnson

Real estate SEO can bring your hottest motivated seller leads without more ad spend. In this episode, I sit down with Greg Berney, a Joe Homebuyer franchisee who built nearly a $2M real estate business while still protecting his family time and building a strong team culture.
