Three days at the Anaheim Convention Center for Tom Ferry’s Success Summit, 23rd year of it, and for once the biggest real estate conference of the year was a short drive from the office instead of a flight. 🤣

Here’s the part I actually cared about.

Over the years I’ve built real relationships with the people who build the tools we use every day...

Dinner with RealScout’s CEO Andrew Flachner, a long stretch of conversations with the founders of Shilo (Justin Benson) and FlyDragon (Tim Harvey), a live in-person webinar with Janelle from Follow Up Boss/Zillow (Janelle Quick), and yes, finally meeting Tom Ferry 🌎 .

This year I got to bring our team into those rooms with me instead of just reporting back from them.

That matters to you more than it probably sounds like it should. Those are the tools deciding how fast you hear back when you send a question at 9pm, whether the homes that hit your inbox actually match what you asked for or just whatever’s closest, and how your house gets in front of the buyers who are genuinely looking for it.

When we know the people building that stuff, your side of it gets smoother. You just never see the machinery.

Highlight of the week though was watching Christian Stubbs | Real Estate Team Leader & Owner present from the Summit stage. Christian runs Onyx Homes down in South County, another First Team team, and seeing one of our own up there in front of a few thousand agents was something else.

One more.. I’ll be on stage in Las Vegas this October for Zillow’s Unlock conference. More on that when it gets closer. Looking at you Zillow For Agents 😉

Comment below with something about buying or selling you’ve always wondered about and we’ll make it the next post.

Philadelphia this week for the MLB All-Star Game, thanks to the Zillow For Agents for the invite! Baseball, great food, and a room full of people I’ve learned a ton from over the years.

The part I keep coming back to: 30 minutes with CEO of Zillow, Jeremy Wacksman. Hearing how he’s thinking about where this industry is headed, talking about our families, and what the industry shifts mean for how we serve buyers and sellers back home in Cypress, was the kind of conversation you don’t forget.

Grateful for the friends, the peers, and the reminder that the best ideas usually come from getting in the room with people doing the work. Bringing it all home to the team, and ready to get to work!

What makes a Greenbrook Spacemaker 1 different.

The Spacemaker 1 is the Greenbrook floor plan everyone in Cypress recognizes and almost nobody can describe. Built in the late 1960s, designed with a bonus room above the garage that’s flex space. A 5th bedroom, media room, home office, or whatever the household needs.

If you’re shopping one, here’s what to look for: front facing facade, bonus room access points, whether the kitchen kept its original footprint or converted the furnace closet into a pantry, the mechanical systems (HVAC year, plumbing material, electrical panel size, energy efficiency, and whether the renovation went deep or stayed surface).

These have held value across cycles for a reason. Flex floor plan, three-car garages as built, and on this side of the tract, private backyards with no two-story windows looking down.

Swipe through for the full breakdown.

We’re listing 5089 Saratoga Tuesday. Grand opening next Saturday and Sunday, 1–4 both days.

Comment SARATOGA for the address details and price Monday morning before MLS.

Next Saturday in Cypress.

The Greenbrook Spacemaker with the floor plan everyone asks about, the upgrades you don’t usually find at this price, and a backyard with no neighbors looking down.

Listing Tuesday. Grand opening next Saturday and Sunday, 1–4.

Comment CYPRESS and we’ll send you the address and price before it goes live.

Yesterday Opendoor launched their grand reopening for agents, and RealScout is the exclusive launch partner.

Cash offers are now built right inside the platform thousands of agents already use to take care of their clients.

Sellers now have three real paths:
→ Traditional open-market sale
→ Traditional cash offer for speed and certainty
→ Cash Now, More Later…cash up front, move on your timeline, and still capture full market value on resale

That last one is the part most people are going to get wrong. It’s not a discount cash offer. The seller still captures full market value. They just don’t have to wait for it.

What’s your read? How are you thinking about this for your sellers? Drop a comment 👇

And if you want to actually understand how to put this in front of your clients (plus everything inside RealScout most agents have never touched) I’m going live Wednesday, May 27 at 11am PT inside Real Estate Collective for a full RealScout deep dive and best practices session.

Comment RealScout and I’ll send you the RSVP link.

🤝 Meet my friend Phil.

I’ve seen him speak multiple times over the years and always valued what he shared and how he approaches the real estate business from a relationship-first, psychological approach.

Many of the things he’s shared from the stage I have brought back to the team and implemented myself.

Fast forward to last week, he and I are on the Zillow Agent Advisory Board together and spent a few days together.

Then again today, we connected at the FUB Live event in Los Angeles.

He spoke again, and I still learned a lot as usual.

But this time, I was watching my friend on stage.

Crazy the rooms I’ve been fortunate enough to be in.

The connections and friendships I’ve made over the last few years.

And it’s just the beginning!

If you’re invited to an event, go.

If you’re on the fence, go.

Do the damn thing. You’ll be better for it. And you won’t regret missing anything.
