Most agents won’t survive 2026. And it won’t be because of AI or the market. It’ll be because they never actually learned how to build real trust with their clients.
In this episode, I break down the ONE thing that will determine whether you succeed in real estate in 2026 — and it has nothing to do with your CRM, brokerage, or marketing.
The real estate industry is changing fast. AI is everywhere. Automation is normal. Consumers are smarter than ever. Commission pressure is real.
When information becomes free and marketing becomes commoditized, the only thing that separates agents is character.
In this episode, we break down:
• Why transactional agents will struggle in 2026
• The difference between selling and advising
• How caring actually becomes a competitive advantage
• The CARE framework for building long-term trust
• How to turn relationships into predictable income
If you’re serious about building a real estate business that compounds — not just chasing the next deal — this is for you.
