Technology isn’t the magic bullet most real estate agents think it is—that’s why this conversation matters.

We’re joined by David Voorhees, a real estate agent with more than 500 homes sold and the executive director of Labs at Keller Williams Realty, LLC. For the past eight years, David has spent his days interviewing top agents across the country, studying how technology helps them make more money and serve their clients better.

David came into real estate after working in the Las Vegas nightclub scene. His experience taught him how to build trust fast, and he still carries these skills into open houses, database growth, and referral-driven business. Early on in his real estate career, he found himself at the center of Keller Williams’ technology evolution, helping shape tools by starting with models and systems, not shiny objects.

In true MREA fashion, this conversation brings us back to the fundamentals. David breaks down the Four Laws of Lead Generation, why most agents overcomplicate their tech stacks, and how a clean, well-fed database can outperform almost any new software. We also dig into AI as a practical thought partner, how to audit your current technology, and why the solutions most agents are searching for are already sitting in their database.

If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by real estate technology, this episode will simplify the path forward and give you a clear framework to run your business with confidence.

What if real estate didn’t compete with family life, but actually made more room for it?

In this episode, we sit down with two agents who prove that building a meaningful business and being a present parent do not have to be opposing goals. Andrea Ryan and Zach Clark join us from two different Texas markets with one shared belief: real estate should support the life you want, not steal from it.

Andrea shares how a high-risk pregnancy and bed rest forced her to rethink everything she thought she knew about lead generation. From her bedroom, she built a buyer webinar model that still drives her business today while keeping her family at the center. She walks us through the mindset shift, the structure, and the conversational framework that turns online education into long-term clients.

Then we talk with Zach Clark, a former teacher who traded the classroom for open houses, diapers, and a brand built on community impact. Zach breaks down how hosting more than 100 open houses jump-started his career, how he converted strangers into clients, and how he now sells 20–25 homes a year while staying fully present as a dad. His community scholarship model shows how contribution can quietly become one of the strongest pillars of a business.

This conversation is honest, practical, and deeply human. If you are building a business while raising a family, or hoping real estate can give you more time instead of less, you will see yourself in this episode.

What if the “headache” side of real estate is actually the hidden edge?

In this episode, we sit down with Gaurav Gambhir, a true operator who has built a real estate empire. His organization helps roughly 7,000 families a year and his property management company now oversees close to 5,000 homes across 14 states.

We go deep on why property management is the back door most agents ignore, and why that back door can lead to predictable, recurring revenue, deeper investor relationships, and a steady flow of listings and off-market opportunities.

Gaurav lays out the two paths: build your own management company or partner with one through a JV model. He breaks down the buckets that matter (including compliance, systems and tech), the four key roles you must staff, pricing ranges, and the vendor network that makes or breaks the client experience.

If you want to build a bigger business with more stability, more leverage, and more long-term clients, this one is for you.
