The Millionaire Real Estate Agent | The MREA Podcast

Lauren Lucas is back, and she is bringing the next wave of AI with her.

Since her last visit, Lauren has taken 48 flights to teach real estate agents how to use AI in a real way. She is still running a real estate team closing around 300 deals a year, and she is still not a “tech person.” That is what makes this talk so good.

We dig into AI agents: what they are, how they work, what they cost, and how we can start using them without getting buried in tech talk. Lauren breaks down how to build one agent for one job, like pulling market data, finding FSBOs and expired listings, drafting content, updating CRM gaps, or helping with tax prep.

Lauren also gives us a clear warning. AI can do the work, but we still need to protect client data, guard our passwords, and keep a human in the loop. The real estate agents who learn this now will have a major edge. The real estate agents who ignore it may soon feel like they’re trying to work without a cell phone.

Start small. Build one AI agent. Give it one clear task. Learn by doing.

What if we could build a real estate business that pays us month after month, not just deal by deal?

In this episode, we sit down with Justin Rourke and John Martin to break down the real business of property management. They show us how they built a recurring revenue model alongside their sales business, and how that one move opened the door to even more opportunity through construction, roofing, and long-term client relationships.

In this practical conversation, we get into the numbers, the people, and the systems with Justin and John. They walk us through how they get paid, how they staff the business, how they win referrals from agents, and what it really takes to manage more than 850 homes. The two also share the hard truth about property management: the industry can create stable income, but it takes time, trust, and a strong operations machine to be successful.

If we have ever wondered whether property management could become a real wealth-building arm of our business, this episode gives us a clear look at the model.

What does it take to build a real estate business that lasts through market shifts, new technology, and changing client habits?

In this episode, we sit down with Metro Detroit standouts Melanie Bishop and Noah Cohen, a mother-son team with more than $1 billion in closed sales from a real estate business built on relationships. Melanie shares the lessons of a 40-year career, while Noah breaks down how he uses social media, client events, and constant connection to stay top of mind.

Together, they show us why open houses still matter, why repeat and referral opportunities are still the gold standard, and why the agents who win are the ones who stay present, useful, and human.

What does it take to build a real estate business that wins at a high level without losing its heart? In this episode, we sit down with brothers Michael and James Hern, who sell more than 250 units a year and over $85 million in volume in the Kansas City metro. They share the four-part framework behind their success: serve first, do the basics better, build people, and stay consistent.

We dig into how their upbringing on a cattle farm shaped their work ethic, their father influenced the way they lead, and early-learned lessons still show up in their business today. Michael breaks down the simple habits that keep his pipeline moving, while James explains how they recruit for culture and turn income goals into a real plan.

This conversation is full of practical ideas for any agent who wants to grow production, lead people well, and build a business that lasts. If we want to create more opportunity for our clients, our teams, and our families, this episode gives us a strong model to follow.

What would it take to build a real estate team agents never want to leave?

In this conversation, we sit down with Chase Delperdang and Jenny Adams, two leaders who have built a high-performing team with remarkable retention across multiple markets. Their business closes at a high level, but what stands out most is how deeply they care for the people inside it.

Together, they break down the models they use to hire with intention, protect culture, coach to the person, and lead with steady, consistent care. We talk about why the right hiring process matters, how weekly service shapes team culture, and why accountability works best when it’s tied to a person’s own goals.

This is not a conversation about building a revolving-door team. It’s a conversation about building a place where people feel seen, supported, challenged, and inspired to stay.

If we want stronger teams, better leadership, and a business people are proud to be part of, this episode gives us a clear path forward.
