Success in real estate doesn't need to mean sacrificing your peace, your family, or your faith.

Listen as I share my story on the Life at Ten Tenths podcast. We unpack how I built a 650-home, referral-driven real estate business without cold calling, open houses, or buying leads—while protecting my marriage, family time, and faith.

Huge thank you to my friends at Life at Ten Tenths for having me on! Check them out here: https://www.lifeattentenths.com/

Key Takeaways

• Identity isn’t a backpack: Your faith and values aren’t something you take on and off—lead with the real you.
• Redefine success: Don’t wear the industry’s scorecard; include profit, marriage, family rhythms, and rest in how you “keep score.”
• Hierarchy of attention: God → spouse → kids → work. Give the best of your attention to what matters most.
• Build for probability, not possibility: Create simple systems you can execute 90–100% of the time—even when life happens.
• Taste and tweak: Run “recipes” for 30 days, then iterate. Did you do all the ingredients? Did the result match the goal?
• Community is a business moat: People have fewer close relationships than ever—be a real friend and referrals follow.
• Authenticity attracts: You won’t be for everyone, and that’s the point. The right people will lean in.
