If you've ever wondered whether you should join a team or go solo, this episode is for you.
Today, we're sharing our personal experiences with the solo agent journey—what worked, what didn't, and why we never built traditional real estate teams.
Spoiler: there's more than one way to run a successful real estate business.
We break down how real estate teams have evolved over time, why they became popular, and what agents should consider before jumping in. From the old "rainmaker" model to today's online lead-driven teams, the structure has changed—but the decision is still deeply personal.
We're covering:
-What it really means to be a solo agent -How real estate teams have changed over time -The pros and cons of joining or building a team -Why we chose to stay solo (even as top producers) -How to grow your business without hiring agents -When it actually makes sense to hire help -Why starting a team too early can backfire -How to build support without sacrificing independence
We also share real stories—from accidentally becoming a "team" to hiring assistants, splitting help with other agents, and navigating different seasons of business and life.
At the end of the day, there is no one-size-fits-all path in real estate.
You don't have to build a team to be successful. You don't have to follow anyone else's blueprint.
You just have to build a business that works for you.
