When the real estate market slows down, not every brokerage (or agent) makes it through.
So the real question becomes: who survives the real estate recession?
In this episode of Real Estate Insiders Unfiltered, James Dwiggins and Keith Robinson sit down with Jack Miller for a deep dive into the forces reshaping residential real estate.
Jack shares insights from research examining the top 1,000 brokerages in the country, revealing the patterns that separate companies that survive downturns from those that struggle when the market shifts.
But the conversation goes far beyond brokerage rankings.
They explore MLS consolidation, brokerage consolidation, the growing role of AI, mortgage companies moving deeper into real estate, and the cyclical nature of the housing market. As the industry moves through another transition period, understanding these trends could determine which businesses grow stronger; and which ones disappear.
And if you stay to the end, Jack answers a simple but powerful question: what would he focus on if he were building a real estate business today?
You’ll learn:
- What the top 1,000 brokerages reveal about industry survival
- Why real estate recessions accelerate consolidation
- How MLS consolidation could reshape the industry
- Why AI will influence how brokerages operate
- How mortgage companies entering real estate changes the competitive landscape
- The one focus Jack Miller believes matters most right now
If you want to understand who survives the real estate recession and why, this conversation is essential.
