What if everything you've been told about real estate success is backwards? While everyone chases the dream of going solo, Kody Weitzel cracked the code on team leverage, closing 200 transactions and earning over $1 million in his second year—all as a team member, not a team leader. This conversation with Kevin Kauffman destroys the myth that you need to build your own empire to reach seven figures. Kody shares the brutal truth about why 75% of teams fail their agents, how to identify real leverage versus fake support, and why the fundamentals of lead generation still dominate over social media fantasies. Key Themes Covered: • Why 75% of real estate teams are ego projects disguised as business opportunities • The five lead generation fundamentals that actually produce consistent results • How to identify whether a team provides real leverage or just social events • Why market shifts create opportunities for agents bold enough to lean in • The mindset difference between working hard and working smart within systems • How team leaders can create opportunities instead of just collecting fees • Why open houses are more valuable now than ever before Get ready to question everything you think you know about teams, independence, and what it actually takes to dominate in real estate.
