Most people think negotiation is about talking.

It’s not.

After years of negotiating property deals, auctions and transactions, Coach Jason shares some of the biggest lessons he’s learned around negotiation, psychology and human behaviour.

In this episode, we unpack:

• why people negotiate emotionally
• how desperation weakens leverage
• the power of silence
• why preparation matters more than talking
• and what strong negotiation actually looks like

This isn’t just about property.

These principles apply to business, career, relationships and everyday life.

One of the biggest takeaways?

The best negotiators usually aren’t the loudest people in the room.

They’re often the calmest.

With commission costs climbing higher and more people using Private sale services, Trade Me and social media to market their homes, a lot of sellers are starting to ask:

Do you actually need a real estate agent anymore?

In this episode of The Ronovationz Property Podcast, Coach Jason sits down with Kellys Osorio from Barfoot & Thompson Ellerslie to unpack the real pros and cons of selling privately versus using an agent.

We discuss:

• why private sales are becoming more popular
• what actually creates strong sale prices
• the psychology behind competition and auctions
• where private sellers can unknowingly leave money on the table
• when using an agent genuinely makes sense
• and the biggest mistakes sellers make when selling property

This isn’t an anti-agent or anti-private sale discussion.

It’s an honest conversation around what actually creates the best outcome when selling property.

If you’re thinking about selling, investing, or just curious about how the property sales process really works behind the scenes, this episode is worth a listen.

There’s a headline going around saying New Zealanders are the worst savers in the world.

But is that actually true… or are we just measuring the wrong thing?

In this episode, Coach Jason breaks down what’s really behind the numbers—and why most Kiwis aren’t “bad with money” at all. In fact, many are building wealth… just not in the way the headlines recognise.

We dive into:

• Why NZ’s savings rate looks so low on paper
• The key difference between saving money and building wealth
• Why property plays such a big role in how Kiwis grow financially
• The power of leverage, equity, and long-term thinking
• Where people go wrong when they focus only on saving

If you’ve ever felt like you’re falling behind because you’re not stacking cash in the bank… this episode will shift your perspective.

Because the real question isn’t how much you’re saving.

It’s whether you’re building wealth.
