Kevin Shtofman - How AI Is Powering the One-Person Real Estate Business

In this episode, we sit down with Kevin Shtofman, a seasoned corporate development leader and AI-driven real estate innovator who serves as the Global Head of Corporate Development at Cheere, a data management company building AI agents exclusively for the real estate industry. With over $3.4 trillion in real estate assets flowing through a patented knowledge-graph-powered platform, he shares how enterprise-level AI is transforming property data, decision-making, and investment strategy. Drawing on experience as a C-suite software executive, he unpacks how he’s leveraged AI to build a profitable “one-person” real estate business, the data he uses for free versus what he pays for, real-world AI use cases, and the hard-earned lessons and pitfalls from deploying AI agents over the past 18 months. An accomplished investor, advisor, and global speaker, he offers candid insights on the non-linear path to financial freedom, leadership at scale, and the future of AI in real estate.
