Key Takeaways:

"This is a process, not an event."

"The practitioner real estate will be the least impacted for a while."

"The beginning of the disruption is the acceptance that fear is the only emotion we get to choose."

"Relationships are the currency. At the end of the day, this acquisition was valued, and all real estate brokerages are valued by the relationships that the agents have with their clients."

"Basically, buyers and sellers choose people, and they choose that relationship."

"What is happening? Okay, what is my response to what is happening? What can I control, what can I influence? Let’s focus on that."

"I think the companies that nail it are companies that go in with questions and an opportunity to learn, to get better themselves…humility and a curious heart, and the desire to understand what our new partners are doing better than us, and then integrating that.”
