Adventures of a Real Estate Broker
Trespassing Buyers, Zero Employees & AI: Real Talk With William Holder
Daniel Berger runs his RE/MAX Prestige Properties brokerage completely on his own, no transaction coordinators, no full-time staff and still closed 55 transactions for $40 million last year. His guest, William Holder, took the opposite path: two clients asking to join him turned into a 30-agent team spanning three states.The two compare notes on what it actually costs to scale a team versus staying lean, walk through a real transaction where a buyer illegally entered a listed property and started tearing out drywall before backing out of the deal, and dig into how William runs AI tools like Claude, Follow Up Boss, and Maverick AI to handle sales-manager-level work without hiring one.
