A year ago, I sat down with my good friends Gaby and Tony from Xtreme Realty to talk about why they made the bold move from running an independent brokerage to joining LPT Realty. In this episode, we reconnect to talk about everything that's happened since—what worked, what didn't, and how they've grown into a 250+ agent mega team across multiple states. From hitting the RealTrends Top 500 to navigating the real estate market's ups and downs, they kept showing up, building culture, and helping agents thrive. We talk about: What it really took to move over 150 agents to a new model How LPT's support, marketing, and tools changed the game The culture they fought to protect—and how it actually got better What the next chapter looks like for Xtreme by LPT If you're an agent, team leader, or brokerage owner wondering if there's a better way to scale and grow, this one's for you.

In this episode, REB journalist Emilie Lauer sits down with PRD chief economist Dr Diaswati Mardiasmo to unpack the current state of Australia's property market and spotlight the most affordable, liveable suburbs. The duo starts the episode by exploring the market's response to the previous interest rate cuts and how they've impacted demand, supply, and property prices. Asti said that while the first cut had minimal effect, the second led to a modest rise in auction clearance rates, building momentum for future cuts. The duo then turns to PRD's latest report, identifying affordable suburbs within 20 kilometres of the capital city CBDs. Asti said affordable suburbs are defined as those below capital city median prices but still offer strong liveability, based on factors like low crime, access to infrastructure, and new housing supply. The report also considers rental yields, appealing to both owner-occupiers and investors. In Sydney, suburbs like Guildford and Punchbowl stand out, while Melbourne offers more affordable options in areas such as St Albans and Maribyrnong. While units remain more affordable than houses, Asti noted that the price gap has narrowed, signalling growth potential across both asset types. Did you like this episode?

In this episode, REB's journalist Emilie Lauer sits down with Melbourne's leading luxury real estate agent Sarah Case to share her journey from snowboard instructor to director of sales strategy at RT Edgar, where she now oversees $350 million in annual sales.  Sarah's path into real estate was unplanned, sparked by a spontaneous lunch and a job interview at Mirvac, where she built a strong foundation in residential and off-the-plan sales.  Known for her unwavering honesty, Sarah believes transparency is essential in real estate, even when it means delivering hard truths to vendors.  She's seen the industry evolve significantly over her 25-year career, particularly in the shift from print to digital marketing and the growing complexity of educating buyers on rising property costs.  Sarah remains confident in Melbourne's family home market, though she notes that apartments are a harder sell due to developer challenges and buyer perception.  At the core of her success is a deep focus on relationships, with referrals and client trust driving her business forward. To aspiring agents, Sarah's message is simple: educate yourself, build genuine connections, and never compromise on integrity. Did you like this episode?

More often, it's about finding the money to fund your deals, especially when traditional financing decides to turn off the tap, and that can happen faster than you think.On a recent podcast episode, seasoned investor Jay Conner sat down with Jenn and Joe Delle Fave to peel back the curtain on the game-changing role private money played in his real estate business—an approach that not only rescued his investing career but tripled his business during one of the most trying economic times in recent history.The Moment Everything ChangedJay Conner, along with his wife Carol Joy, had been successfully investing in single-family homes in Morehead City, North Carolina, since 2003. Like many, he relied on the steady comfort of a bank line of credit to fund his deals. That all changed in January 2009 at the height of the financial crisis. Without warning, his bank (and trusted banker, Steve) pulled the plug: his line of credit was closed, and new loans to real estate investors dried up overnight.Faced with two lucrative deals under contract and no way to close them, Jay's back was against the wall. But rather than seeing an insurmountable problem, he asked the transformative question: “Who do I know that can help me with this problem?” That question led him to an introduction to private money—and ultimately, to financial freedom.What Is Private Money Lending?Private money in real estate refers to funds lent by individuals (not institutions) to investors, typically secured by real estate. These individuals often don't even know they want to be lenders until someone shows them what's possible, like using their retirement accounts (self-directed IRAs) to earn outsized, secure returns.For Jay, learning about private money meant a total mindset shift. Instead of begging the bank, he became the one offering an opportunity. He began teaching people in his network—friends, church members, business contacts—about private lending. No hard selling, no desperate asks. Just education and a willingness to be transparent about how the process worked and the secure, solid returns they could earn.The Power of Private Money: How It Changed the GameWhen Jay started implementing private money strategies, the results were immediate and dramatic. He raised over $2 million in new funding in under 90 days. Within a year, his business had tripled, even as many other real estate investors were leaving the business entirely due to a lack of financing.Jay explained that private money brought several advantages:Flexibility: The investor sets the terms, not the bank. That includes interest rates, payment schedules, and what deals get funded.No Limits: Unlike bank lines of credit, private lenders are only limited by their comfort and resources, not an arbitrary ceiling.Speed: Jay has closed deals in as little as five days, a feat impossible with institutional lenders.Profitability: In his market, he achieved average profits of $82,000 per deal, doing only two to three deals a month, thanks largely to the reliability and ease of private funding.Teaching, Not SellingJay's secret sauce is in his approach: separate the teaching about private money from pitching a specific deal. He positions himself as a guide and trusted resource, only calling interested lenders when he has an actual investment for their funds. “Desperation has a s

After nearly a decade in real estate, I've seen a lot—the highs, the lows, and sadly, the agents who peace out before they ever hit their stride.

So in this episode, I'm calling it out: the habits, mindsets, and sneaky traps that might be holding you back too. If you're serious about building a business that lasts, you're going to want to hit play. Let's grow smarter (and stick around longer), Bestie.

[Do] you know why? Because it is a financial nightmare to keep up with all of those different bank accounts.” – Erika Brown  “If I have a partnership with this person, then we're gonna have our own LLC. If I have for my business, I've been advised that I keep up to a million dollars in each LLC. So, if I have a property in the net worth of that property is a million dollars, then that LLC is capped out, and I'm setting up a new LLC.” – Erika Brown   [INVESTOR ROADMAP] Ready to take control of your future?
