    Ep 7 Todd Talks | Leadership When No One is Looking | Sandi Smith

    In this episode of Todd Talks, I sit down with Sandi Smith—co-owner of Trillium Real Estate, longtime Ann Arbor Realtor, and 2024 President of Michigan Realtors—for a conversation grounded in one principle: Acta non verba. Actions, not words. This isn’t a highlight reel of titles and accolades. It’s a practical discussion about what leadership actually looks like behind the scenes—in committee rooms, governance decisions, brokerage ownership, and the steady work of protecting private property rights. We talk about:  • How quiet persistence shapes policy over decades  • Why professionalism across both sides of a transaction protects the consumer  • What it takes to move an organization from legacy structure to nimble leadership  • The role of authenticity in building a durable real estate business  • Why “I don’t know—let me find out” builds more trust than bluffing ever will Sandi shares how her leadership journey evolved from local association involvement to statewide impact, and why developing future leaders—especially those who don’t always see themselves represented—is critical to the strength of our profession. For brokers, agents, and association leaders who believe stewardship matters more than visibility, this conversation delivers practical insight without the rhetoric. If you care about advocacy, governance, ethical practice, and elevating standards in Michigan real estate, this episode is for you. Todd Talks is the pocket-sized power-up for growth-minded Realtors—focused on action, clarity, and turning market intelligence into professional advantage. Integrity isn’t declared. It’s demonstrated. Credits Host: Todd Waller Producer: Josh Nieman Recorded at: @propertiesREMI | Christie’s International Real Estate, Ann Arbor

    Ep 6 Todd Talks | How You Doin? | Ted Edginton

    When mortgage markets get noisy, clarity becomes a superpower. In this episode, Todd sits down with Ted Edginton, loan officer at Rate Mortgage, whose reputation for calm precision and proactive communication has earned him rave client reviews and lasting trust. Together, they unpack what transparency looks like when money and emotion collide - and why consistency in small actions builds credibility faster than any marketing promise. Because in lending, as in life, integrity isn’t said. It’s shown. Credits Host: Todd Waller Producer: Josh Nieman Recorded at: @propertiesREMI | Christie’s International Real Estate, Northville
