The real estate landscape is shifting, and leaders who take decisive action now will set the standard for success in 2025. In a powerful discussion, Joe Skousen (CEO of Inside Real Estate) and David Childers (CEO of Keeping Current Matters) outlined five strategic moves every brokerage must make to stay competitive.

First, leaders must turn legal shifts—like the NAR settlement—into a competitive advantage by proactively adjusting business models and strengthening compliance strategies. Next, technology is no longer optional—firms must invest in AI-powered ecosystems that drive productivity, streamline operations, and fuel smarter decision-making. Agent retention is also a top priority, as top brokerages focus on creating real value beyond commission splits to keep talent engaged and thriving.

Consumer expectations are evolving, making it critical for brokerages to shift from transactional marketing to long-term client engagement. Personalized, automated experiences will define the next era of real estate success. Finally, the most successful leaders will adopt a bold mindset—driving change, embracing innovation, and positioning their brokerages for long-term growth.
