Your Daily Real Estate Podcast with Tristan Ahumada

One of the listings that had expired received 3 offers in 11 days. Here's precisely what I told you.

If you're still stalling on calling first expireds, this video takes you through four tried-and-true expired listing scripts that actually work. Every one of them is set up to penetrate seller frustration and phone boredom without sounding like all the other agents call...

If your CRM is looking like a ghost town, this is for you. Real estate doesn't have to be convoluted. It's just talks. The 5-20-1-1-1 rhythm is an easy way to bring your contacts back to life without being a spam bot.

You begin by identifying 5 people you actually know. Then categorize 20 contacts into groups (such as, "we chat all the time" or "haven't seen this perso...

So you finally get an online lead… then what? You overdo it, freeze, or go into full robot mode. Been there. That's why I employ something called PSLV, literally saved me from sounding like cringe and closing out leads that had no idea what they even wanted.

This isn't script or phony hype. I'm dissecting how I communicate with people ...

Price cuts alone aren’t enough when a listing sits for 90‑plus days in a softening market. In this rapid “7‑Step Refresh Plan” I show you exactly how to make a stale property feel brand‑new again: hit pause for a week to reset buyer fatigue; launch a mini‑makeover (fresh mulch, neutral paint, LED bulbs, carpet clean‑up) that photographs well; replace every photo and video so the listing pops on MLS a...

Expired listings are popping up again as inventory builds, which means homeowners who couldn’t sell last time are hunting for a fresh strategy— and the right agent. In this video I walk you through a live role‑play with ChatGPT’s “agent mode,” showing exactly how to open the call, dig for the seller’s real pain points, handle common objections (“we’ll just rent it” or “we didn’t get serious buyers”),...

A rock‑solid listing presentation is the fastest way to boost confidence and win more seller appointments—but most agents either wing it or rely on dated slides that don’t speak to what owners actually care about. In this episode I walk you through my nine‑section “seller‑psychology” template, refined after 1,000+ presentations from Westlake Village to Calabasas. You’ll learn how to open with a genui...

Breaking into a farm area isn’t about talking at owners—it’s about solving the everyday problems that come with homeownership. In this video I share the exact “Local Legends Directory” letter my team mails to Westlake Village, Thousand Oaks, and surrounding neighborhoods to spark real conversations, collect trusted vendor names, and position ourselves as the go‑to resource for maintenance, repairs, a...

Struggling to turn happy clients into public proof? In this video I walk through the exact “repeat‑and‑scale” review campaign my team uses to collect Google and Zillow reviews that attract fresh sellers and buyers every month. You’ll hear why a review request must be its own call—not tacked onto a thank‑you chat—plus the timing that keeps you from sounding pushy. I share the subject line that lifts o...

Homeowners are screening calls because they keep hearing the same worn‑out real‑estate scripts. To break through the noise you need to talk about what’s on their mind every single week: maintenance, repairs, and improvements. In this video I explain the simple “M‑R‑I” phone approach my team has used for seven years to start real conversations with farming neighborhoods, past clients, and sphere conta...

Struggling to keep viewers watching your real-estate videos to the very last second? In this episode I share the R-E-P framework I’ve refined after hundreds of trial-and-error shoots: R – Recognize the pain. Open with the exact frustration your audience feels (“It’s getting tougher for first-time buyers to afford anything in Los Angeles”). E – Emphasize and tease relief. Hint at the solution you’ll...

Social media isn’t just a place to scroll anymore—it’s where buyers, sellers and future referrals discover you. In this quick-hit episode I break down the two biggest shifts reshaping real-estate marketing online and how to turn them into listings:

1. Social as the new discovery engine Home shoppers now type their questions into Instagram Reels, TikTok, YouTube and—eve...

Rocket’s takeover of Redfin—and its pending grab of Mr. Cooper—signals a future where national platforms capture buyers and sellers long before they ever talk to an agent. In today’s episode I outline the two moves that let an individual REALTOR® (or a lean team) stay irreplaceable: 1) become the default local brand by flooding one niche market with daily short-form market takes, weekly YouTube deep-...

Ever wonder what your 90-year-old self would ask you right now? In this quick episode I share an AI prompt—borrowed from TikTok creator Nate—that turns ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok and DeepSeek into a “future-you” coach.

I read the exact prompt (so you can copy-paste it), run it through all five models, rank the results, and show how the best answers double as a min...

Local Service Ads (LSAs) and Google Analytics can look intimidating, so I saved them for the last chapter of our four-part “Google 8” mini-series. In this quick walkthrough I break down:

• Why LSAs can be gold—or a money pit. • How Google’s “Google-Screened” badge and review count drive call volume • What happens if you miss calls (and how...
