A $300 fish dies on the drive home, a store owner throws out a challenge, and a new San Antonio small business is born. That’s just one of the stories Ronil Harwood brings as we reconnect on Real Estate AF. Ronil is a Keller Williams real estate professional with a background in aviation and the co-owner of CHARE Aquatics, and his journey is a masterclass in what happens when you refuse to stay comfortable.

We talk about the practical foundation that shaped him early, including a church-led youth program that taught real-world skills like resumes, interviews, finances, and how to carry yourself with confidence. From there, we trace his move from New York to Texas, how buying his own home exposed the lack of home buying education, and why today’s real estate market rewards trust more than a polished sales pitch. If you’re a San Antonio Realtor, a new agent, or a homeowner thinking about buying or selling, you’ll hear clear guidance on pre-approvals, setting expectations, and having the tough conversations that protect your time and your client’s outcome.

We also go deep on entrepreneurship, collaboration, and building systems that scale, from dependable vendors and redundancies to relationship marketing that keeps you top of mind long after closing. Ronil shares daily non-negotiables like God first, staying healthy, and giving people simple moments of positivity, plus we swap routines on doing hard things daily to sharpen mindset.
