In this episode of the REB Podcast, editor Liam Garman sits down with Coronis Group CEO Karuna Mazzocchi for a candid conversation on what it really takes to future-proof a real estate business as the market shifts beneath our feet. Mazzocchi explains why "good enough" is no longer good enough, how complacency quietly creeps into successful businesses, and why leaders must be willing to disrupt their own models if they want longevity in an increasingly competitive market. The pair then put digital marketing and proptech solutions under the microscope, examining what truly differentiates tools that drive performance from those that burn time and money - before diving into when it's time for agencies to make hard calls and change course. Mazzocchi also explores the tension between automation and authenticity, warning that technology should strengthen – rather than replace – human relationships, and outlining how high-performance, human-first cultures can be built and sustained across multiple offices.

Probate real estate marketing pays off when it runs like a system.Mail, calls, attorney outreach, senior talks, vendor support, all of it can feed one pipeline instead of sitting as random tasks on your list.This coaching call walks through how to build probate real estate marketing that keeps working in the background while you stay focused on conversations and signed agreements.Here is what you will learn:➡️ 1:34 For agents and investors who want probate real estate marketing to bring in calls months after a campaign goes out, this part shows what happened when earlier touches started turning into inbound leads.➡️ 13:52 If you want attorneys to see you as a steady contact who makes their clients' lives easier, not another person asking for cases, this section gives a simple approach for attorney cold calls and what to say on the first outreach.➡️ 23:14 If you like the idea of senior community talks feeding your probate pipeline, here you see how to structure a short presentation, what to teach about probate, and how to spot who quietly needs to sell a home.➡️ 27:18 For anyone building probate packets and worrying about cost, this part shows what to include, when ten dollar packets make sense, and how to personalize your probate real estate marketing for warm leads without wasting budget.➡️ 31:xx If you want your follow up to feel thoughtful instead of pushy, this section explains when to use home value estimates as a second touch instead of stuffing numbers into cold mail that gets tossed.➡️ 38:xx For agents who do not want to design every checklist and brochure from scratch, this part walks through new tools going into the Probate Mastery portal that support your probate real estate marketing and save setup time.➡️ 42:25 If you are thinking about a done-with-you partnership, this segment lays out lead counts, timelines, and conversion expectations so you can see how a long term probate real estate marketing plan can fund itself.By the end, you will see how a simple, consistent system turns probate leads from “not ready” into people who call you first when timing lines up.If this is the kind of probate business you want to build, this is the same structure we teach and refine inside Probate Mastery.Watch the replay, take notes, and choose one upgrade to your probate real estate marketing that you will install this week.

Book your FREE financial discovery call at ProfitREI.comIn this episode of the Profit First for Real Estate Investing podcast, I sit down with Leon Barnes—real estate investor, coach, and long-time leader at Collective Genius. Leon shares his journey from sports journalism and corporate sales into building a 65+ door portfolio in Kansas—all while working full-time and growing alongside a strong investing community.We talk about what it really takes to build wealth slowly and intentionally, the difference between chasing “door goals” and actual profit, and how Leon leaned into community and personal development as much as business strategy. This episode is a reminder that real estate isn't a race—it's a tool to build the life you want.⸻Episode Highlights[0:00] – Leon's journey from sports broadcasting to corporate sales to real estate investing[3:50] – Building his first few rentals while still working full-time[6:03] – How being bankable gave him a financial runway most new investors don't have[8:44] – Why he grew to 75 doors—and intentionally scaled back to 65[10:12] – The birth of Collective Genius and how it grew into a values-driven community[13:00] – The problem with chasing someone else's goals[15:22] – Short-term goals as a long-term strategy: why they matter[18:09] – The connection between personal development and business growth[20:41] – The importance of being intentional with your time, money, and community[24:26] – Leon's final thoughts on playing the long game in both business and life⸻5 Key Takeaways 1. Real estate doesn't have to be rushed. Leon built his portfolio slowly while working full-time, proving that patience pays. 2. Being bankable opens doors. Keeping your W-2 income for a while can give you more financing options early on. 3. More doors ≠ more freedom. Scaling down can sometimes increase profitability, focus, and peace. 4. Community matters. The right peer group will challenge you, keep you grounded, and help you grow. 5. Define success on your terms. Whether it's 10 doors or 100, know what you're building and why.⸻Links & Resources • The Collective Genius: https://explorecg.com • Listen to the CG Podcast: https://thecgpodcast.com • Learn more about Profit First for REI: https://www.simplecfo.comIf this episode helped you reframe your real estate goals or inspired a new path forward, please rate, follow, and review the podcast.

Turning Tenant Placement Into a Thriving Real Estate Business - Travis Gairy EP 304 Pt 1   Today I sit down with Travis Gairy, founder of The Listatto Team, for an insightful conversation about the power of working with tenants and the massive opportunities within the rental market.   Travis and his team have built a strong, service-first real estate business focused on helping clients buy, sell, rent, and invest across Toronto. With rentals becoming an increasingly competitive and strategic space, this episode dives deep into why tenant representation is not only valuable—but can be a long-term business builder for realtors.   We explore how to properly screen tenants, why collecting documentation matters, and how agents can guide renters from their first lease all the way to purchasing their first home within a few years. The conversation also touches on the current state of the condo and rental markets, emerging opportunities, and how Listatto Team continues to evolve through "Listatto 2.0."   Gary also wraps the episode with a practical Tip of the Week on pricing your home correctly—and why the first 7–10 days on the market are critical to success.   Whether you're a realtor struggling in today's market, curious about rentals, or looking to diversify your business, this episode offers practical insights you don't want to miss.   Contact: Email: Travis@listatto.com  Insta: @travisgairy    This episode proudly sponsored by Better Mortgage Select - https://bmselect.ca    Better Mortgages Select   Are you looking to create generational wealth and get one step closer to financial freedom?

Phegan explains that market cycles have accelerated dramatically, shifting every seven to eight weeks rather than over years, requiring agents to be more agile and strategic.

The discussion highlights the critical role of leadership and coaching in fostering growth, mentoring teams effectively, and building a culture of continuous learning. Phegan also stresses the value of relationship-driven strategies, leveraging past client connections to generate future business in a competitive environment. The conversation also touches on government scrutiny, noting new compliance requirements and ethical expectations that demand stricter adherence from industry professionals. Phegan encourages agents to invest in personal development, embrace continuous learning, and maintain strong client relationships as key differentiators in a tech-driven world.

In this inaugural episode of The Property Management Excellence (PMX) Podcast, REB's Alex Whitlock sits down with Cathie Crampton, LJ Hooker head of property management, to discuss how smart business leaders are scaling their rent rolls - without relying on increased headcount. Whitlock and Crampton unpack the evolving expectations of investors, the impact of market pressures like rising interest rates and suppressed yields, and why property managers who fail to adapt risk being sidelined. They reveal what separates traditional property managers from next-gen practitioners – from smarter team structures and tech-enabled workflows to financially literate conversations that demonstrate real value to owners. The pair also dive into growth strategies for agencies: how optimised rent reviews, retention-focused operations, and strategic acquisitions can turn a low-margin rent roll into a scalable, high-value business.

REB's Liam Garman sits down with Ashby Farrell from WHITEARCH to unpack Perth's explosive growth – and how agents can keep their heads above the water when the number of listings continues to fall. With active listings plunging to record lows and properties selling in single-digit days, Farrell explains why Perth is no longer just dealing with an affordability crisis, but a full-blown supply crunch. He breaks down the numbers behind the shortage, why fewer than 2,000 listings is fundamentally unsustainable, and how this imbalance is reshaping buyer behaviour across the city. Farrell reveals why many property owners are refusing to sell, choosing instead to hold positively geared assets while prices continue to climb – and how this mindset is locking stock out of the market. For investors, he outlines where opportunities still exist, why yield must stack up today, and which city-fringe suburbs could deliver the next wave of capital growth. The conversation also lifts the lid on the realities faced by agents and property managers. Farrell warns of falling transaction volumes, explains why discounting fees is a race to the bottom, and shares practical advice on how agents can protect margins, listings, and long-term relevance in a low-stock environment.

In this episode, I sit down with business attorney Chris Johnsen, who brings a refreshingly honest take on when investors really need legal help—and when they don't. With a background in real estate, litigation, and corporate counsel, Chris knows firsthand how legal blind spots can cost you big. But he also gets the hustle. He's not here to sell legal services you don't need—he's here to help you think like a business owner.We dive into when to engage a lawyer (hint: not always day one), what contracts investors mess up the most, and the risks of using boilerplate docs or DIY operating agreements. Chris also tackles hot topics like non-competes, asset protection, and the legal lines you might be crossing without even realizing it—especially in syndications.Episode Highlights[0:00] – Chris shares his journey from real estate to law and why he's a businessperson first[5:03] – How the 2008 crash redirected his path and made him a litigation expert[6:56] – The unexpected upside of being both a transactional and litigation attorney[9:25] – Why the “school vs. entrepreneurship” debate is missing the real question[12:40] – What makes a law degree valuable—and how to think about ROI in education[13:46] – Why cash is underrated, and how it gives you leverage in business and investing[15:11] – Real estate can create freedom—but it takes a lot more than just doors[17:16] – Most common legal issues investors bring to Chris's firm[19:05] – Corporate structure and asset protection: the basics you must get right[21:06] – What's happening with non-compete laws and why it matters to business owners[22:30] – DIY contracts, LegalZoom templates, and when it becomes a $20K problem[23:21] – Operating agreements: why they're not just “boilerplate” documents[24:10] – Syndications and securities law: the big legal risk investors overlook[27:11] – The million-dollar mark: when you should really start investing in legal infrastructure[31:13] – How to connect with Chris and book a free 15-minute consult5 Key TakeawaysYou don't need a lawyer for everything—but you better get the operating agreement right. It's not just paperwork. It's the contract that holds your business together.DIY legal is fine—until it's not. Contracts, partner agreements, and syndications are where most investors go wrong.Forming an entity is simple. Scaling with structure isn't. Corporate governance matters more as you grow.Syndications trigger securities laws. If you're raising capital, you need a securities attorney—not just a real estate one.Once your business hits seven figures, legal issues multiply. That's when it's time to audit what you've built—and protect what you've earned.Links & ResourcesBook a free consult with Chris: https://www.johnsenlaw.comLearn more about Profit First for real estate investors: https://www.simplecfo.comIf this episode gave you clarity on how and when to protect your real estate business, make sure to rate, follow, and review the podcast.

Watch the full episode on our YouTube channel: youtube.com/@mreapodcastWhat if real estate didn't compete with family life, but actually made more room for it?In this episode, we sit down with two agents who prove that building a meaningful business and being a present parent do not have to be opposing goals. Andrea Ryan and Zach Clark join us from two different Texas markets with one shared belief: real estate should support the life you want, not steal from it.Andrea shares how a high-risk pregnancy and bed rest forced her to rethink everything she thought she knew about lead generation. From her bedroom, she built a buyer webinar model that still drives her business today while keeping her family at the center. She walks us through the mindset shift, the structure, and the conversational framework that turns online education into long-term clients.Then we talk with Zach Clark, a former teacher who traded the classroom for open houses, diapers, and a brand built on community impact. Zach breaks down how hosting more than 100 open houses jump-started his career, how he converted strangers into clients, and how he now sells 20–25 homes a year while staying fully present as a dad. His community scholarship model shows how contribution can quietly become one of the strongest pillars of a business.This conversation is honest, practical, and deeply human. If you are building a business while raising a family, or hoping real estate can give you more time instead of less, you will see yourself in this episode.Resources:KW Ignite TrainingOrder the Millionaire Real Estate Agent Playbook | Volume 3Connect with Jason:LinkedinProduced by NOVAThis podcast is for general informational purposes only.

Probate real estate marketing becomes easier to commit to when you can clearly see what is working, what is supporting trust, and what is quietly wasting effort. This coaching call looks at how professionals structure their probate marketing through vendor relationships, visibility channels, and direct conversations, and how those choices shape results over time.A recurring theme in this discussion is alignment.If your marketing activities require more time or emotional energy than you can consistently give, friction builds.If your systems depend on channels that only work under specific conditions, results become unpredictable.This call helps you evaluate whether your current probate real estate marketing setup matches your capacity, your market, and the kind of outcomes you want to support.You'll hear how specialists decide when tools like Google Business Profiles function mainly as credibility checks versus lead sources, how follow-up materials such as probate resumes clarify positioning, and how vendor relationships become referral channels when handled with consistency rather than pressure.The goal is to recognize what needs to be in place before scaling effort, spending more money, or expecting stronger referrals.The timestamps below help you pinpoint where structure, clarity, or support may be missing:2:15Building vendor teams around estate administrationEstate administration vs estate creationHow presenting yourself as a coordinated solution increases referral confidence6:37Three pillars of probate real estate marketingChase, Attract, and Sphere of Influence How balance reduces dependency on any single channel14:20Google Business Profiles in probate marketingWhen they support trust and verificationWhen they realistically contribute to inbound activity18:06Sending credentials after probate conversationsWhat a probate-focused resume clarifiesHow positioning affects follow-through31:37 / 32:12Softening early conversationsLanguage choices that keep dialogue open rather than guarded42:58Adjusting outreach based on contextHow flexibility and volume influence consistencyWhy rigid scripts often limit results

Probate real estate leads respond better when your business follows a clear path instead of a mix of unfinished setups. If your leads keep coming in but your system to handle them still feels halfway built, this call helps you see what a complete structure can look like.This session walks through three clear paths for a probate business, the numbers behind a full partnership model, and what happens when a pipeline runs long enough to compound. You will hear how agents  and investors  can plug in their own data, how old lists can still support early months, and what changes around month six when systems, coaching, and lead flow all point in the same direction.This call fits you if...➡️ If you already have probate real estate leads and no clear follow through, then you need a simple way to see where each contact stands.➡️ If you keep going back and forth between building alone or joining a partnership, then you need to hear the economics explained in clear terms.➡️  If you want a business that can keep moving even when you are not prospecting at full speed, then you need to see how ISAs, mail, and resource packages support that outcome.Highlights and Hot Takes: 1:19 Three paths to running a probate business and how each one handles time, money, and support22:20 Using your existing data inside the system and what needs to be true about those leads26:08 Pipeline on autopilot, how calls, mail, and resources keep probate leads moving toward you39:15 Monthly economics for a full partnership and what that looks like in practical numbers46:00 Options for partners who stay beyond six months and how expenses can shift as results grow48:28 Split structure for investors who move deals through this model49:54 What happens if you decide to end mentorship or partnership once systems are in place53:14 Paths for running a lighter version of this setup when you want lower spend1:07:22 Expected outcomes once these systems are implemented and given time to workWhen this matches where you are with your probate real estate leads, watch the call with your own market in mind and decide which path you want to commit to next.

A probate real estate specialist does not succeed by  "just copying" one tactic. Results come from choosing a business model that fits how much time, money, and responsibility you are prepared to handle. This coaching call breaks down how different models actually perform, what happens when deals become more complex than expected, and how professionals adjust without burning out or losing control.If you are deciding how to structure your probate real estate business, the timestamps below help you compare options, pressure-test your current system, and see whether it can support what you want next.Hot takes/Highlights: 00:00Different probate business models and where each one breaks downMail-only systems, attorney-centered referrals, cold calling, ISA support, and paid automationThis section helps you decide whether predictability, control, or cost matters most to you as a probate real estate specialist.13:03Squatters, repairs, time investment, and unexpected expensesWhat happens when responsibility expands beyond the listing and how to think through fees and boundaries before it happens again.32:53Listing agreements with administrators and estatesWho signs and how contracts are typically handled35:30How partner calls work and when they make senseUseful if you are deciding how much support you want versus doing everything yourself.37:00How consistent effort compounds over timeThis helps you evaluate whether your daily inputs match the results you expect long term.37:58How much probate business actually exists and how much typically turns into transactionsThis section helps you decide if your market can support your goals before you overbuild a system.42:34Deciding how much business you wantThen asking whether your current system can realistically produce it43:30Reverse mortgage referrals connected to probateIdentifying motivated situations and filtering opportunities46:47Presenting options based on speed or moneyThis section shows how probate real estate specialists position choices so clients can decide without pressure.If you are refining your approach to probate, these sections help you see what aligns with how you want to operate and where adjustments make sense before scaling further.

Probate attorney referral strategies shape a big part of this coaching call, especially for probate real estate specialists who want steady attorney referral activity, stronger pipelines, and clearer systems. This session gives a steady look at the parts of probate work that influence progress, from pipelines and mail systems to data sources and attorney relationships. If you have been refining how you operate, the sections below help you compare your approach with methods that already support better referrals and cleaner processes.00:00What has to be clear for any probate professional is how a pipeline performs in real time.
