Some key takeaways:
➡️  Successful team growth involves constant recruitment, a prepared succession plan, and maintaining a strong team culture despite inevitable staff turnover.
➡️  Understanding housing pricing involves balancing seller expectations with market realities, considering risk factors and supply-demand dynamics.
➡️ Time and phone management are essential for work-life balance, facilitating effective meeting scheduling and clear boundaries between personal and professional life.

Some great moments:
✅ “So you hired somebody you'd gone to school with and it was all kind of very friendly”
✅ ”There's definitely opportunity to grow and we're going to put that against your cash flow and see how far you can stretch it.”
✅ ”What would a private equity firm do if they came into our company?”
