In this powerful episode of Rethink Real Estate, host Ben Brady sits down with Eddie Speed, Founder and President of NoteSchool, to unpack how real estate investors and agents alike can shift from being the landlord to being the bank. With over 45 years in the industry and more than 50,000 seller-financed notes purchased, Eddie reveals why this cycle is primed for note investing and how seller financing strategies can transform both portfolios and listings.Eddie explains how investors can earn between 9–12% without the headaches of tenants, toilets, and property management, and why seller financing often produces two to three times the net income of traditional rentals.

In this quick-hitting solo episode, Ben Brady breaks down one of the most critical (and most overlooked) conversations agents should be having right at the beginning of every listing: the financial conversation.Too often, agents chase listings based on seller wants, not seller needs. But without a clear understanding of financial limitations, goals, or pressure points, you’re flying blind — and likely wasting your time. Ben walks through the simple phrasing he uses to uncover whether a seller can actually accept a realistic offer, plus how to use net sheets and ongoing check-ins to stay ahead of surprises.Whether it’s medical debt, hidden obligations, or emotional price anchors, this episode is all about protecting your time, setting expectations, and building the kind of trust that leads to real decisions — not false hope.For agents who value transparency, efficiency, and not getting strung along for six months, this one’s essential listening.🎯 Key Topics & Timestamps:[00:00] – The difference between wants vs. needs in pricing[01:06] – Can you evaluate motivation at the start?

Ben Brady breaks down the major takeaways from May—and one theme stood out above all: acceptance. But not the kind that comes with signed offers. We're talking seller mindset, agent responsibility, and market-wide reality checks.Ben walks through what he's seeing across the U.S.—from Florida and Tennessee to Colorado, Arizona, and Texas.

In this unique episode of Rethink Real Estate, host Ben Brady is joined by Cameron Hastings, Principal of Landtheory, to dive into a niche yet high-potential sector of commercial real estate—Unanchored Strip Centers. From the outside, they may look like ordinary smoke shop-laden retail strips, but Cameron unpacks why these assets are quickly becoming a favorite among forward-thinking investors.Cameron shares his path from high-rise architecture in New York to acquiring undervalued retail centers in Southern California and Dallas-Fort Worth. He breaks down why unanchored centers—those without big box tenants like Target or Costco—offer stronger leasing flexibility, faster turnover, and often higher cap rates than their anchored counterparts.

In this tactical episode of Rethink Real Estate, Ben Brady picks up where we left off in our last practical session — diving deep into the questions that actually matter in weekly client meetings. While the last episode unpacked the format of weekly updates and reports, this one is about the substance: how to ask better questions that lead to clearer price feedback, sharper seller education, and more realistic expectations.Ben breaks down word-for-word the kinds of follow-up calls and price feedback conversations agents need to master — whether speaking to buyers, sellers, or other agents. You’ll learn how to handle vague responses like “it’s priced right” and how to push the dialogue just enough to get real, usable information. Because when a buyer won’t write an offer, that tells you just as much as when they do.Whether it’s uncovering if someone would still say no at $1.3M or showing how weekly price conversations are your insurance policy against missed expectations, this episode is about asking the uncomfortable questions that lead to clarity, confidence, and better outcomes for sellers.Timestamps & Key Topics:[00:00:00] - Welcome: Why Better Questions Make Better Weekly Reports[00:01:17] - The Insurance Policy Analogy for Seller Education[00:02:53] - Why “It’s Priced Right” Isn’t Feedback[00:04:00] - Word-for-Word Buyer Follow-Up Script[00:06:12] - Why Open Houses Are More Valuable Than You Think[00:07:49] - Shifting From Surface-Level Feedback to Real Numbers[00:09:32] - Educating Sellers Doesn’t Block High Offers — It Prepares Them[00:11:03] - How to Push for Honest Agent Feedback Without Being Pushy🔗 Related Resources:For more info on Harcourts Auctions, our non-distressed auction platform, visit:www.harcourtsauctions.comConnect with Ben Brady and the Harcourts Auctions team:Facebook: www.facebook.com/BenbradyharcourtsLinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/ben-brady-0b223517Instagram: www.instagram.com/harcourtsauctionsFacebook: www.facebook.com/HarcourtsAuctions🎯 Subscribe for more tactical sales and listing strategies.

Ben Brady is joined once again by resident tech expert Tony Self to explore how artificial intelligence is revolutionizing how agents forecast future sellers and price properties with data-backed precision. Together, they break down the growing role of predictive analytics in real estate—from identifying the most likely sellers in your database to creating more accurate valuations using multiple sources of market data.Tony shares his current work using platforms like ChatGPT, DeepResearch, and CoStar to build valuation models and investment insights, especially for multifamily properties.

In this episode of Rethink Real Estate, host Ben Brady delves into a troubling trend affecting today's housing market: buyer's agents submitting overinflated offers laden with contingencies. Ben discusses the tactics where agents encourage clients to bid significantly above asking price, only to attach a string of contingencies that delay the closing process and, in most cases, derail the sale entirely and fall out of escrow at a later date.This practice not only frustrates sellers but also skews their expectations about the value of their home, leading to prolonged days on the market and, ultimately, a lower final sale price. Ben shares a firsthand account of a transaction where sellers were enticed by an unrealistic high offer, overlooked a solid before auction offer, and ended up losing $10,000 on their home sale due to these Buyer Agent tactics.🎯 Key Episode Highlights:Exploration of the current trend of overbidding with heavy contingencies.How inflated offers with no intent to close impact seller expectations and market dynamics.Real-life example of how this practice cost sellers $10,000.Strategies for sellers and their agents to identify and manage such offers effectively.👉 Must-Watch for Sellers and Real Estate Professionals: This episode is crucial for anyone involved in selling a home, providing insights into navigating offers and protecting against market manipulation.

From the exhilaration of quick sales to the reality checks of escrow fallouts, the real estate market is brimming with misconceptions and challenges.

Navigating the tricky waters of a slow seller's market can be a challenge, especially when homes seem to sit on the market forever. Dive deep with us in this enlightening episode of Rethink Real Estate with host Ben Brady, as we re-explore the power of auctions in a not-so-favorable seller's market.
In today's insightful episode, host Ben Brady revisits a topic many have been waiting for - the efficacy of the auction method in North American real estate. However, this time, the spotlight is on how auctions can be a game-changer during a less-than-ideal seller's market. While the knee-jerk reaction for many agents is to slash prices for a quick sale, such strategies can inadvertently signal to potential buyers a deeper willingness to settle for even lower prices. Ben Brady, alongside the dynamic Harcourts Auctions team, offers an alternative approach. With the auction method, properties that have been left lingering on the market are suddenly reinvigorated, attracting fresh interest without the dreaded price reduction.
🎯 Key Topics:• Rethinking Price Reductions: Why they might not be the best approach in a slow market.• Auctions in a Downturn: How the auction method becomes a vital tool during unfavorable seller conditions.• Breathing Life into Listings: Harcourts Auctions' strategy to rejuvenate stale market properties.

In this episode of the Rethink Real Estate Podcast, host Ben Brady dives into a theory that may surprise real estate professionals across the country. As he reflects on his recent visit to Harcourts' top North American office in Bend, Oregon, Ben shares his first-hand experiences and market insights that suggest the fast-moving real estate market may have actually hurt Realtors' businesses across the industry.
With a market that seems to be more balanced going into the future, Ben challenges the idea that agents can't rely on the fruits of a previous fast-moving market. Instead, he emphasizes the importance of building a business that is sustainable, regardless of the speed and rewarding nature of the market. This is done especially by building a real estate business that centers around repeat and referral while focusing more on your sphere of influence.
Join Ben as he provides his unique perspective on the current state of the real estate market and how agents can adapt their strategies to build a successful and sustainable business for the future. This is an episode you won't want to miss!

In this special bonus episode of Rethink Real Estate, host Ben Brady talks about the the pricing aspect of real estate. He quickly discusses stories of the pricing conversations in listing presentations and how agents these days we work with are ditching the pricing conversation all together and winning business because of it.
Too often in the past, real estate agents would sit in listing presentations and either try to buy the listing with their opinion on price or they would lose the listing to an agent that gave a fictitious promise of a higher price than you. We have changed this conversation and our agents have been able to look like the clear expert in all listing presentations because they are standing out by promising a process to get the best price instead of the price itself.
If you have a listing presentation coming up that you would like help with feel free to visit our website below and reach out anytime.
