    How a Transaction Coordinator Built a Real Estate CRM for Beginners | Talitha Villalobos

    Talitha Villalobos is a transaction coordinator in Florida who built DealDeck 365, a simple CRM that keeps buyers, sellers, lenders and wholesalers in one place and drafts the first text, email or call for you. She gives host Meghan Escobar a live walkthrough of the deck, the shareable digital card and Deal Match, then talks about her plans for multifamily housing for people with disabilities and veterans in Arizona. She also explains why a deal that falls through is a reason to think in twelve different ways rather than quit, and why she goes to every meetup she can.

    How Affordable Housing Real Estate Deals Still Pencil Near Charleston | Clint Kelly

    Clint Kelly, an investor and realtor in Charleston, South Carolina, explains why he left mid-priced homes for affordable single-family deals 30 to 45 minutes outside the city, and how he looks for zoning and lot size to add density. He walks through moving from renovations to ground-up construction, why every deal he does has two exits, and what a first-time homeowner should check before building an ADU. He closes on Robert Kiyosaki versus Dave Ramsey, and why both are right for different people.

    How to Use AI Automation in Real Estate Without Replacing People | Jeff Jenkins

    Jeff Jenkins went from pushing a mower around his first self-storage facility in rural North Georgia to founding EmpowerFrame, an automation and AI enablement company for property managers and real estate operators. He tells host Quentin Edmonds how emptying the bank account for that first property led to a second facility, a light industrial building and a lake condo, and why he chose to serve one industry instead of selling AI to everyone. He also explains why automation should replace the tasks that do not need people, not the people themselves, and why he sees relationships as service rather than transactions.
