  1. How honesty and transparency drive $350m real estate success

    How honesty and transparency drive $350m real estate success

    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?

    In this episode of the REB Business Empowerment Showcase, Little Real Estate’s Anne Crarey and Philip Eldret join host Liam Garman to unpack the benefits of operating as Australia’s largest privately owned real estate agency – and how their innovative model is helping agents thrive in today’s market. Anne and Philip open the discussion by sharing how being independent – with 12 offices across three states – gives Little Real Estate the agility and opportunity that franchise models often lack. They delve into the power of career progression, consistency, and streamlined processes that empower agents without the pressure of selling principles. Philip highlights the value of leveraging a rent roll to generate consistent listing opportunities, creating a dependable revenue base for agents and increasing their profile in local markets. The conversation then turns to Little’s “One Team” approach, where collaboration between sales, property services, and support teams leads to better outcomes for clients and more cohesive operations internally. Anne and Philip also spotlight Little’s commitment to training and support – from onboarding and coaching to tech tools, marketing strategies, and initiatives like "Brunch and Learn" – all designed to create a thriving agent ecosystem. Finally, the pair explore how Little’s industry-leading rent roll referral program offers agents a secondary income stream, allowing them to build long-term value alongside their sales performance. Tune in for a deep dive into culture, systems, and practical frameworks that support success in modern real estate. Enjoy the podcast, The REB Team

    Tackling industry turnover and elevating agent education, with REINSW’s Tim McKibbin

    In this episode, REB editor Liam Garman is joined by Tim McKibbin, CEO of the Real Estate Institute of NSW (REINSW), to explore one of the most pressing issues in the industry – the exceptionally high churn rate among new agents – and the steps needed to create a more sustainable, educated workforce. The conversation kicks off with a sobering statistic: nearly 80 per cent of new real estate professionals exit the industry within their first year. McKibbin unpacks why better foundational training in areas like contract law, property fundamentals, and client advocacy is critical to reversing this trend. They then delve into the soft skills that underpin success in real estate – from building trust to mastering interpersonal communication. The episode concludes with a look at the evolving role of technology and AI. McKibbin shares how REINSW is harnessing AI for data analysis and interpreting legislation and how agents can leverage these tools to work smarter and strengthen client relationships.
