Joined by Krishan, Dan and Solly discuss why bigger commission structures in the US encourage teamwork, while UK agents are still stuck in a solo mindset. Krishan shares how genuine connections and curiosity about clients—not just property specs—set him apart. He reflects on his biggest career wins, from starring on BBC’s Crazy Rich Agents to landing luxury listings. The group debate a more regulated UK market, where licensing could push out less committed agents and deliver the message: In real estate, personality is everything.
