16:07

In real estate, this time of year exposes something we don’t talk about: feeling stuck.

How to Get Listings Without Paying Referral Fees 16:54

16:54

A lot of agents and teams feel like their business is “stable” because they’re getting a steady flow of leads from referral companies, portals, and third-party sites. And honestly, on the surface, it does feel safe: leads come in, you call them, you close a few deals, and life moves on. But here’s the part most people don’t say out loud: if your en…

Swing voters are pretty fed up with politics in general. They’re often “swingy” because they can’t really stand either party. And in our most recent focus group, they all let political leaders HAVE IT.

Not a Lead Issue: Why Agents Struggle With Follow-Up 14:08

14:08

Most of us think we’re struggling with follow-up because we aren’t consistent enough, or the leads just aren’t good enough. But in reality, the problem goes much deeper than missed calls and forgotten reminders. The real issue is that most agents fundamentally misunderstand how long it actually takes to convert a lead, and what those follow-up conv…

Every average agent wants to know what top producers are doing differently to get their results. They’re in the same market, dealing with the same obstacles, and working with the same number of hours, yet somehow, they keep pulling ahead.

When real estate agents struggle, the first thing they do is blame the market: the interest rates, the inventory, the leads. But the truth is, that’s not why agents are failing. The truth is simpler and more uncomfortable. Most agents fail because they overcomplicate what actually works. They treat real estate like a hobby, showing up when they fee…

No election in 2025 has been more impacted by the Trump presidency than the elections in Virginia.
