NAR NXT 2025 did not disappoint.

Our Pivot Realty Group preferred partners hosted an incredible dinner in Houston at the incredible Guard and Grace, and the night was full of great food, better conversations, and lots of laughter.

If the crazy AI videos we created of each other that provided so much entertainment at our celebration is any indication of what’s to come for AI’s future, we are going to generate massive success using the tools as they continue to evolve.

Grateful for the partners who support our agents and help us keep raising the bar.

Community makes this business work and nights like this remind me why we do what we do.

Back at NAR NXT in Houston and the outlook for real estate has never been clearer.

Lawrence Yun, Chief Economist at NAR, predicts a 14 percent jump in home sales from 2025 to 2026, putting us nearly halfway back to pre COVID activity. Combine that with his call for 6 percent mortgage rates by the end of the year, and we are staring at the return of something we have not seen since 2019: a balanced real estate market.

For agents, leaders, and anyone building in this industry, that means opportunity is on the rise. The next cycle will reward those who stayed sharp, stayed active, and stayed committed while the market was slow.

The groundwork you lay now determines the advantage you have when things accelerate.

What an opportunity to evolve and pivot in the real estate market

You can build the life you want and still feel empty inside.

We often talk about growing businesses, chasing goals, and building success.
But what happens when the internal struggle becomes louder than the achievements?

In this episode of The Necessary Entrepreneur, Mark Perkins sits down with Mandy Morris, bestselling author, speaker, and creator of the Emotional Coding Method. Together, they unpack why so many high achievers feel stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected even when things look successful from the outside.

Mandy explains how emotional patterns and our nervous system responses drive behavior, stress, and self-sabotage. She shares how to move from survival mode into a grounded, aligned way of living and leading.

This episode will change the way you think about success and inner peace.

Most parents want their children to have a better life than they did. But in trying to provide comfort, many unintentionally remove the challenges that build resilience.

When responsibility, work ethic, and discipline are not developed early, entitlement takes their place.

In a world where entitlement is increasing, standing out is easier than ever.

CEO of Bubbles Tea & Juice Company, Darrel Grumman, says that in 2025, the people who win will be the ones who are willing to be just a little more relentless.
