Real Estate Revamp

The latest edition of Real Estate Renovators features Rob Groeneveld from Philip Webb.

Rob has spent more than half his life in real estate, having started as a wide-eyed 16-year-old, and is now a partner at the agency he's been at for the past 16 years.

His instinct for selling started early - you'll be amazed at how he made his first $150 'commission' -and his passion for the real estate business is clear in everything he says and does.

But he's not afraid to tell it like it is. He says there's no secret to success, leadership is about setting the right example and caring for your team, and the focus should always be on what the client wants.

Rob and the team also discuss the issue of mental health and how the high-stress environment and lifestyle of the real estate industry can have a significant impact on agents.

He also shares his thoughts on the industry, in general, his experience through COVID, and what he thinks the immediate future holds.

You'll see how much of a people person Rob is and, if you're a young agent just starting out in real estate, there's a good chance you'll feel like reaching out to him after watching this episode.

The latest edition of Real Estate Renovators features the effervescent Claudia Michaels from Zed Real Estate.

Claudia is somehow both larger than life and down to earth at the same time. She lives her life with so much energy and positivity and clearly loves being an agent.

Given that she had a pretty successful previous career, before being encouraged to try her hand at the real estate game by Zed just a few years ago, she has taken to selling property like a duck to water.

Claudia tells the Renovators how she approaches the business, what she's learnt, and what motivates her. You won't be surprised to hear that she works long hours, but you might be amazed at how she embraces that work ethic while still living her life to the full.

She also shares her thoughts on topics such as the use of social media, whether being female agent is an advantage or a disadvantage, and how to make the most of opportunities.

Check out this energetic and uplifting episode of Real Estate Renovators right now ... because, as Claudia says: "When the pot is hot you don't stop stirring!".

Our special guest on the latest episode of Real Estate Renovators is Bill Nikolouzakis.

Bill has had a fascinating career in real estate, finance, and technology, having started out as a mortgage broker, worked in banking, built his own business, and been CEO of iBuyNew Group, before becoming COO at PropTech Group, the market leader in technology in the real estate industry.

As well as outlining some of challenges he has experienced, Bill shares his unique insights on the role of technology in the real estate space now and into the future.

He explains how he looks at technology as an essential tool for streamlining and optimising tasks and what that means, in practice, for agents and property managers as well as their clients.

Despite being a new business, PropTech has already been extremely successful at identifying good technology and bringing it into the real estate sector to help make the process easier.

Bill has quite a vision of how technology will, in the not-too-distant future, guide and assist a person throughout their real estate journey, from renting for the first time through to retirement.

It's another must-see edition of Real Estate Renovators with an extremely engaging special guest.

Our guest on the latest episode of Real Estate Renovators is Michael Choi, the founder of Area Specialist.

Michael is disrupting the traditional real estate industry with a model that he believes works better for agents who want to operate independently.

He tells the Renovators how he developed Area Specialist, explains how it works, and discusses what he thinks it means for the future of the industry.

And he outlines how he thinks we'll see property managers handling twice as many properties in the future.

At a time when the sector is going through some changes already, following the worst of the COVID crisis, is the Area Specialist model poised to take an even stronger foothold? Or is it a niche that will only really suit a small proportion of agents in particular circumstances?

As always, there's plenty of food for thought in an episode of Real Estate Renovators you really need to see.

Our special guest on the latest episode of Real Estate Renovators is Brad Teal.

Brad's name is synonymous with real estate in Melbourne's northern suburbs, particularly his own home patch of Essendon.

Having started in the mid-70s when he was just a teenager, Brad's getting close to clocking up 50 years in real estate, and over 30 years running his own business.

He shares his incredibly broad experience, from the early days of riding his bike to pick up cash from tenants all the way through to the online world we now operate in.

Tune in for the stories but stay for his unique perspective on running a real estate business. There's a good reason why his staff retention rate is extraordinary!

It's another episode of Real Estate Renovators that covers plenty of ground and offers quite a few pearls of wisdom from someone who has truly walked the walk.

Our special guest on the latest episode of Real Estate Renovators is the Director of Coad Real Estate, Di Coad.

Di's approach to property management might be a little different, but it's certainly successful. She's been able to significantly grow her business with no bricks-and-mortar shopfront and no website!

In taking us through her journey, Di explains how she's grasped the opportunities that have been presented to her, with plenty of hard work and maybe one or two harsh lessons.

She shares some of the things that she did that you shouldn't do, as well as giving a real insight into a number of things that have really worked for her.

Di and the team range far and wide in their chat, from offshore Virtual Assistants to Airbnb and from staff retention to delivering for clients.

It's an episode of Real Estate Renovators that demonstrates how valuable authenticity is.

Our special guest on the latest episode of Real Estate Renovators is buyer's advocate Warwick Brookes.

Warwick was one of the pioneers of buyer advocacy more than 20 years ago, making him not only one of the most experienced and most successful in his field, but also one of the most widely respected.

The Renovators grill Warwick on what he actually does, how he operates, and how he deals with both his clients and real estate agents.

Some of our friends in the broader real estate industry may find some of his thoughts challenging, but everyone will gain some valuable takeaways from his unique insights.

Tune in for this informative and thought-provoking episode of Real Estate Renovators - and hear Warwick confess to getting one thing terribly wrong!

This edition of Real Estate Renovators features property management guru Melanie Dennis.

While Jason tends to refer to a lot of people as 'legends', in Melanie's case the label is well deserved!

She may describe much of her journey as 'accidental' - in that she didn't have a specific plan to do what she's done - but it's certainly no accident that she's one of the most recognised, respected, and admired people in property management.

If you're not already a fan, you will be after hearing Melanie outline her philosophy and approach to business.

She tells the Renovators how she started documenting everything from the start, when she was managing four properties while on maternity leave, and she and her team still follow all the processes and procedures outlined in that 'bible' (although there are now three).

Melanie also explains why she thinks being accessible to her staff and all clients is so important, why everything's about a relationship, and how technology isn't always the answer.

Watch this edition of Real Estate Renovators and then tell us you wouldn't love to work with Melanie!

There's not much that hasn't been said about the very special guest on this edition of Real Estate Renovators - a lot of it by him (and some of it unprintable)!

Adam Flynn is one of the most prolific figures in the Australian property industry and one of the most fascinating people to listen to.

He's not only rewritten the book on selling real estate and how to build and run a business, he's taken 'telling it like it is' to a whole new level!

As a high school dropout who knew he wanted to go into real estate, who became a director at the tender age of 24 (not that he was particularly tender!), Adam has done things in the real estate business that others couldn't even envisage. And he definitely does things his way.

This is a unique opportunity to hear the CEO and Director of Biggin & Scott Knox pretty much raw and virtually uncensored (disclaimer: this episode might not be suitable for a family timeslot).

No matter how much you think you know about selling, and the real estate game as a whole, you need to know some of the things Adam shares with the team.

Tune in and strap yourself in for some truth bombs, Adam Flynn style!

In the latest episode of Real Estate Renovators, our team of experts is joined by one of Australia's most successful agents, Zed Nasheet.

Zed shares his inspirational personal story, from arriving in Australia as a young refugee to starting his own agency to his remarkable record of selling multi-million-dollar properties.

He tells us why he's so big on social media and how he's developed an incredibly dynamic team and built such a recognisable brand in only 18 months.

Seeing is believing, and hearing Zed outline his personal philosophies and motivations, and his take on work, business, money, and life, will make you rethink your own approach!

It's easy to see why he's not only great at what he does - selling homes - but also an in-demand speaker and mentor to others in the industry.

Tune in for this entertaining episode of Real Estate Renovators - and find out what Zed's dad has told him about chooks!
