    5 Hours of Lead Gen Daily: How Top Agents Win

    At 21 years old, Debbie De Grote became the number one Century 21 agent in Los Angeles and Orange County and number three in the nation. Her secret wasn't a revolutionary marketing strategy. It was five hours of lead generation every single day.   James Dwiggins and Keith Robinson sit down with Debbie, CEO and co-founder of Forward Coaching, to unpack the discipline, routines, and accountability that separate top real estate agents from everyone else. Debbie shares how she built a business producing as many as 156 transactions a year as a solo agent, what she learned during 13 years with the Mike Ferry organization, and the lessons she's gained from more than 100,000 private coaching calls.   From prospecting and follow-up to emotional intelligence and coaching, this conversation gets to the heart of why knowing what to do isn't enough. Success comes from consistently doing the work.   Links mentioned during the episode: Forward Coaching Negotiations Course: info.forwardcoaching.com/podcast How I Built It Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/spanx-sara-blakely/id1150510297?i=1000396023160   Connect with Debbie on Facebook - LinkedIn   Learn more about Forward Coaching on Facebook - LinkedIn - Instagram and online at forwardcoaching.com   Subscribe to Real Estate Insiders Unfiltered on YouTube! https://www.youtube.com/@RealEstateInsidersUnfiltered?sub_confirmation=1   To learn more about becoming a sponsor of the show, send us an email: jessica@inman.com   You asked for it.

    Agent Series 54: The Other Agent Is Your Real Client

    What if one of the most important relationships in a real estate transaction isn't with your buyer or seller, but with the agent on the other side? James Dwiggins and Keith Robinson sit down with Cari McGee, team leader of the Cari McGee Team at RE/MAX Northwest in Washington, to unpack the systems and relationships behind more than 650 home sales and 270-plus five-star reviews. Cari shares how she generates roughly 70% of her business from referrals, keeps former clients engaged through her Rockstar Rewards program, and uses consistent expectation-setting to protect both her clients and her own time. But her biggest piece of advice is surprisingly simple: treat the other agent like they're your client. Because when a transaction gets difficult, that relationship can make or break the deal.

    Why Real Estate Pros Are Terrible Investors

    Real estate professionals help people build wealth through property every day. So why are so many of them terrible at investing for themselves?   James Dwiggins and Keith Robinson sit down with Russ Morgan, founder of Wealth Without Wall Street, to unpack the difference between earning a great income and actually achieving financial freedom. Russ explains why the optimism that makes someone a successful entrepreneur can make them a dangerous investor, why access to cash matters, and why he believes traditional retirement strategies may not be the best path toward passive income.   They also discuss mentorship, financial transparency, building an investment buy box, learning from bad investments, and creating systems that can turn active income into passive income.   Links mentioned during the episode: Wealth Without Wall Street REIU Podcast exclusive www.wealthwithoutwallstreet.com/unfiltered   Connect and learn more about Russ on LinkedIn - YouTube - Instagram - Podcast.    Subscribe to Real Estate Insiders Unfiltered on YouTube! https://www.youtube.com/@RealEstateInsidersUnfiltered?sub_confirmation=1   To learn more about becoming a sponsor of the show, send us an email: jessica@inman.com   You asked for it.

    Agent Series 53: Relationships Over Transactions - How to Build a $6B Business

    Louise Phillips Forbes started her real estate career making just $8,400 in her first year. More than three decades later, she has closed over $6 billion in real estate, and she credits much of that success to a philosophy that has very little to do with chasing transactions.   James Dwiggins and Keith Robinson sit down with Louise, founder of the Louise Phillips Forbes Team at Brown Harris Stevens, to discuss why relationships, generosity, service, and authenticity have remained at the center of her business. Louise shares how she built her sphere organically, why other agents should be viewed as colleagues instead of competitors, and why treating every relationship like an opportunity for a commission can actually work against you.   They also explore how New York real estate has changed throughout Louise's 35-year career, the growing battle over private listings, balancing service with being a strong negotiator, and why even a $6 billion producer is still willing to rethink how she runs her business.   Connect with Louise on LinkedIn - Instagram (team) - Instagram (self) - Facebook and online at louisephillipsforbes.com.

    The Truth About the Housing Shortage

    For years, the real estate industry has been told America has a severe housing shortage. But what if the data tells a different story?   James Dwiggins and Keith Robinson sit down with Ryan McKeveny, Managing Director at Zelman & Associates, to challenge one of housing's biggest assumptions. Ryan explains why declining birth rates, an aging population, slowing household formation, and immigration trends could mean the housing market is much closer to balanced than many believe. They also dig into affordability, mortgage rates, shifting demographics, today's difficult transaction environment, and what agents should be doing now instead of waiting for the market to improve.   Links mentioned during the episode: Zelman Insights: https://www.zelmanassociates.com/resources/zelman-insights   Zelman Housing Summit, September 17-18, InterContinental Boston Register for the Housing Summit: https://events.zelmanassociates.com/2026housingsummit/begin Registrant Type: New Registrant Save $300 off of Registration with Discount Code: PODCAST300   Connect with Ryan on LinkedIn.   Subscribe to Real Estate Insiders Unfiltered on YouTube! https://www.youtube.com/@RealEstateInsidersUnfiltered?sub_confirmation=1   To learn more about becoming a sponsor of the show, send us an email: jessica@inman.com   You asked for it.

    Agent Series 52: The Referral System That Works

    What if the best referral system for your real estate business had nothing to do with asking for referrals?   James Dwiggins and Keith Robinson sit down with Greg Roeder, Founder and Principal Broker of Selling Fort Collins with LIV Sotheby's International Realty to unpack the system that helped him grow from $15 million in solo sales volume in 2023 to $40 million in 2025.
