What does it take to form a real estate partnership that lasts? One that’s built to endure all kinds of markets, to serve all kinds of clients, and to stand the test of time?

Some of the components - like shared values and great people - are intuitive. Others - like valuations, management agreements, and unified brands - are less so.

Mike Hines joins us to share lessons learned in partnering with Scott Oyler to create Oyler Hines, the second-ranked team in Ohio.

Learn how they put it all together culturally, financially, and legally - and get tips on per-agent productivity and new construction sales.

Watch or listen for Mike's insights into:

• Shared vision and values as your foundation
• How EOS help clarify a team’s North Star for better decision making
• The evolution of Oyler Hines from solo agents to co-team leaders
• How complementary strengths and clear standards make a partnership work
• The logistics of merging teams - valuation, structure, and tough conversations
• Setting up fair compensation and a management agreement
• The importance of professional branding (even if it costs 3x more than you thought it would)
• Balancing approachability and luxury with your real estate brand
• Keys to improving per-agent productivity (spoiler: specialization helps)
• The coaching and meeting cadence that supports agent and team success
• Tips to win more new construction opportunities 

At the end, learn about the end of the loaf, workout retreats, and head-clearing, all-day walks.
