320. Brett Dickinson: How to Land, Market, and Sell a Masterpiece Property (round 2)
01 May 2025
00:55:09
Brett Dickinson | How to Land, Market, and Sell a Masterpiece Property (Round 2)
The #1 Real Estate Agent in La Jolla Brett has broken multiple sales records, including the two largest residential deals ever recorded in La Jolla’s history — one in the Shores and the other in the Country Club — as well as the highest sales ever on the waterfronts of Bird Rock and Point Loma.
In his first conversation — episode 210, How to Break Records in Your Business — Jere and Brett talked about how to break “formerly undefiable price records.”
In this episode, he’s sharing not just how he wins a masterpiece listing, but how he lands the opportunity, markets the property, and closes the transaction.
If you’ve ever wanted a raw look behind the curtain at how the biggest listings are won — against the fiercest competitors — this is the episode.
🎧 Listen in for insights on: • How to compete and win luxury listings—against the fiercest competitors • The role of time and timing in high-stakes negotiations • Marketing is not just a checklist • Why pricing is a marketing tool, not just valuation • How Brett landed more articles for his listing than Marilyn Monroe's home • The gatekeeper • Identifying and qualifying buyers • The mindset shift from commission-driven to client-driven service
🔑 Top Takeaways • “Play a winning game.” Don't just show up—study the competition, set the table, and deliver better. • Gatekeepers matter more than titles. They shape who gets in the room and what happens next. • Don’t chase comps—create context. Brett convinces buyers by shaping the story, not citing price per foot. • Defend your value. Discounting your commission tells the client you don’t believe in your worth. • Strategic timing wins deals. The right message delivered at the right moment can be the deciding factor. • Marketing isn’t optional—it’s the investment. Custom branding, PR strategy, and storytelling made Sandcastle iconic. • Integrity creates long-term wins. A lost deal due to honesty led to future loyalty and new clients. • You don’t have to be famous—just to the right people. Brett’s wife helped him understand the power of positioning.
🎙️ Sound Bites “I got him a big bottle of ‘Shut the F*** Up’—because knowing when to stop talking is a power move.” “It's not about playing the commission game. That’s the wrong game.” “Set the table.” “You never know what a buyer or seller is going to do—until they do.” “You want to be very famous to a small group of people.” “People don’t buy square footage.” “Enjoy the journey”

310. Robbie Briggs: Building a Real Estate Empire & Transforming Adversity to Advantage Along the Way
03 May 2024
01:19:22
Today I’m talking to Robbie Briggs, Founder and former CEO of the top luxury brokerage in Dallas Texas, Briggs Sotheby’s International Realty.
Robbie walks us, with full transparency, through his journey to the top where he remained steadily for a few decades until a sudden near crash. The near crash that was reality for Robbie is one that remains only in the worst nightmares for most entrepreneurs. It was through sheer faith, focus and action that positioned Brigg’s Sotheby’s, in the end, in its most profitable position since its founding.
Robbie gets real, shares on the ground examples and goes deep as he and I talk about Building a Real Estate Empire and Transforming Adversity to Advantage Along the Way.

Finally, she did it, and had twins! The one thing says she knows now, is that you can have it all. In the heat of it all, coming out of COVID with two 1-year-old twins, she shares that her family has not just enhanced her career, her career alongside her husband and business partner, Andy Meinen, has to lead to a closer more loving family than she thought possible.

Today I’m talking to Lexi Corretti, Sierra Sotheby's International Realty’s top producer since 2012 with over 15 years in the real estate business in Lake Tahoe.
With a Master’s of Science degree, she worked in land planning and permitting, web marketing, as well as completing several residential construction projects with her husband, a licensed Nevada General Contractor. This experience is what lead her to her career and success today.
She’s too modest to share, but she is
- The agent who represented Sierra Sotheby’s highest priced sale for 2019 - The Sierra Sotheby’s top Nevada Associate with the company since inception in 2012 - The Top Incline Village and East Shore agent with over 18 Lakefront sales - REAL Trends ranked #5 in Nevada, #1 in Incline Village - The Exclusive Nevada Agent for Sotheby's Market Leaders Group, a group of 40 agents exceeding $4 Billion in sales annually, that’s more than top brokerages in major cities. - She is the on the Exclusive Lake Tahoe Board of Regents for Who’s Who in Luxury Real Estate - She recently broke another sales record with a 38million dollar sale in Lake Tahoe

188. Gregg Metcalf: Tapping Into Opportunities Through Commercial Brokers
20 Sep 2020

Today I’m talking to Gregg Metcalf of JLL. Gregg is based in Atlanta and Not a broker who sells homes. He is a commercial broker in representing companies leasing office space.
Gregg is on the show today to share with us, opportunities for residential agents through commercial agents.
A broker for over 20 years, Gregg started by representing landlords, first of residential multifamily, and soon after, landlords of office buildings.
This leads the opportunity he took in 2003 to take on the role of a developer in commercial real estate of office and industrial space.
As a developer, he was also a landlord and didn’t just gain insight but experienced and knows exactly how landlords make decisions. This leads to the beginning of his great success today. As the market turned in the Great Recession of 2009, his new path was clear. In 2010, he began representing the tenants who lease the spaces from the landlords he so well understood. Gregg now represents corporations such as CohnReznick, a top accounting firm in the world, and other companies for whom he represents office leases across the country and the globe. Not to be left out, he leads and represented the relocation of Mercedes to Atlanta in 2015
Today, he and I talk about, how to tap into opportunities with commercial brokers, from basic referrals to major corporate relations.

Does the business actually own it? (08:05)

And that's not all, there's his Harvard Business School degree, his Stanford university Construction and Engineering and Management Degree, and most importantly, over 1 billion in real estate sales in his career. And he's growing quickly. He has a virtual reality storefront in Aspen, and this year, the best year of his career in 2020, he has already sold over 400 million in real estate. He has killed it internationally what as an internationally competitive skier and he is killing it in real estate. Today, we talk about killing it with lethal habits and creativity.

After that interview, when we stopped recording, we caught up a little more about going for it, about her obstacles, her struggles being the very gift by which she found her way. How that's the opportunity that gave her happiness today, and success. She shared a lot more about her childhood about unthinkable childhood experiences and pain from abandonment as a toddler to her adopted father aiming a gun at her head and pulling the trigger. Not the self-imposed stuff that so many of us... or, at least, I can relate to.
She shared with me how she overcame so much adversity. I asked her if we could talk online and share for so many that have pain in their lives. So many of us that have challenges that we really want to break through and overcome. She agreed.
Today, here we are, talking about overcoming unthinkable pain and making real breakthroughs.

25 Jul 2020
00:43:40
Today I’m talking to Shawn Woof of SIR Canada in Muskoka, a second home market and what he reminds me is to Toronto what the Hamptons is to New York.
10 years ago, Shawn was investing in real estate and decided to get his license because he didn’t see the value in having to pay an agent
Since then, he has discovered that there are great real estate agents, and great real estate agents don’t just offer great value, that they are essential. As a result of all of this, Shawn has become a top real estate agent in his market.
In a market that is dead for lack of a better word, dead, for at least 4 months out of the year. Shawn saw this not as a problem, but as an opportunity. He had an idea. He used that time to align and execute for success. he continues to grow and cultivate that idea and his success today. We talk about how he did it and how he does it.
3:43 - How Shawn Woof got into real estate
10:59 - Shawn’s Journey with Sotheby's International Realty Canada
17:10 - Building your business: Risk vs Opportunity
"The more you give without expectation, the more you receive in return"
"Try new things and execute on good ideas"
