The NextHome Podcast

Imran is joined by the 2020 NextHome Excellence Award Winner Heidi Powell from NextHome Dynamic in Freeport, PA. With the pandemic shutting down the ability for real estate transactions to be conducted in the state, Heidi and her team didn't let that stop them from being a much-needed resource to their community. Serving thousands of meals to those who were unable to provide for themselves such as immunocompromised seniors, the NextHome Dynamic team stepped into action to help their neighbors in their community.

In this special episode, Imran speaks with Kimberly Rodriguez Trigg of NextHome Pro Realty in Utica, Kansas. 

Originally from Southern California, Kimberly shares her inspiring story of growing up in the streets of the Inland Empire and her involvement in selling drugs, weapons trafficking, and growing up in a gang-affiliated life - all by the age of 15.

After making the decision to leave a life of crime and wanting to start over, she relocated to Kansas where her chance meeting with NextHome's Owen Freiburger helped her start her new life with a focus on real estate.

Kimberly's journey is one of overcoming the odds, leaving that life behind, but also thriving. She actively works on improving the lives of young gang-affiliated men and women.

Getting an offer accepted in today's real estate market requires diligence and tenacity. NextHome Community Real Estate's Billy Alt works in one of the most competitive markets in the country - Las Vegas. Billy shares his hacks to help you increase your chances of getting your buyer's offer accepted in this red hot market. A must-listen pod if you are representing buyers.

While so many get into real estate, having longevity and joy in a real estate career is rare. The stress of representing buyers and sellers in the most important (and likely most expensive) purchase of their lives takes a toll on today's agents. Alex Krumm, owner of NextHome Excellence in Sarasota, Florida shares his strategies for not only having a successful sales career but for having joy while doing it.

In this episode, Imran talks with David Caraboolad, the broker/owner of NextHome Experience in Columbus, OH. Alongside his business partner, Vadim Barash, David has taken his brokerage from a two-man operation to the No. 1 brokerage in the entire NextHome franchise in three short years. All this while being a husband and a father to an autistic child. It's no wonder why David was honored with the 2019 NextHome Courage Award. In this must-listen episode, hear how David's mentality has shaped a culture that drives his brokerage to the top.
