As we come through one of the most divided times in the history of our nation, strong leaders are needed to stand up and bring us together. Real estate agents are well-situated to play an integral part in this effort. It is essential that we focus on building community.
There's nobody better in the real estate industry to teach us how to do this than Tristan Ahumada, Founder of Lab Coat Agents, the largest online community of real estate agents in the world with over almost 140k members.

Sharran Srivatsaa- succeeding in real estate. Sharran grew the luxury brand Teles from $350M to $3.5B, a 10X growth in just 5 years. He shares secrets about what buyers and sellers really care about, how to rise above industry disruption, the importance of paying for coaching, and the value for your life now and for your future life of spending time creating a vivid vision of your bigger, better future.
After growing up, dumpster diving for food as an impoverished citizen of India, Sharran’s father sacrificed everything to get his son to the US. Here, Sharran has taken advantage of the opportunities, graduating with honors, working for the investment firm Goldman Sachs, and now acting as a venture capital investor and private mentor to top CEOs.
In this episode, Sharran gives the following insight:
· Buyers are looking for a home and sellers are looking for buyers.
· The most important thing that you can offer to your clients is the feeling of safety.
· Talk less about yourself and more about your clients journey. You are the sherpa, the guide, not the climber. It’s not about your story, it’s about theirs.
· You are selling insight and advice. That is what makes you valuable and focusing on this will set you apart from your competitors, including Big Tech disruptors.
· Transformations don’t happen in isolation. You need mentors and coaching and you need to pay for it. Asking to “pick someone’s brain” is a poor strategy and will keep you from getting the help you actually need.
· When you consider your bigger and better future, you rise above all of the problems of today. Go as far as creating a 25-year plan, dividing each year into four quarters for a total of 100 quarters. It then becomes your job to get 1% closer to that bigger future each quarter. That’s it.
Success leaves clues, and Sharran hand-delivered so many of them that will inspire us to think bigger and achieve higher.

Create your own real estate reality TV show. Your ability to build the business that funds the life you really want is contingent upon your ability to get and keep the attention of those you wish to serve. HGTV has created a powerful model of merging entertainment with education. Today’s guest, Brent Silberbauer discusses how he has created his own HGTV-like following in Chico, CA and you should do the same.
Four years ago, Brent was selling cell phones to businesses to take care of his family because the church where he had served as a youth pastor and media director had blown up. This job put him in front of an investor group that had hired him to do new business acquisition. Eventually, Brent left to start his own commercial firm. Excited about his new opportunity, he didn’t realize the commercial real estate cliff that his industry would go over as the pandemic and subsequent shut-down took effect.
Brent knew he had to do something fast. Despite his reluctance, Brent pivoted into residential real estate and his vision for what he could do for his community began to take hold. Troubled by the number of people leaving California for a number of reasons, Brent began to see that following in the footsteps of what Chip and Jojo did for Waco, TX, would allow him to impact the city of Chico in important ways.
Fast forward to today, Brent has a booming residential real estate business, some of the best listing videos you’ll find and is about ready to release his version of Fixer Upper in Chico.
Some of the things you’ll learn from this episode:
● the mindset of moving forward when difficulty strikes
● the vision to want to do something bigger than just build your own real estate business
● how to negotiate deals with labor and material providers as a form of investment into a local TV show of which you become the producer
● the importance of attention and how to get it
● the importance of the Hook, Story, Offer framework for building business
● how to use people you’ve never met as your mentors, boosting the sum average of the 5 people you spend the most time with
