Expired Listings in 2026: How Top Agents Save Deals with Rental Strategies

What do you do when a listing sits, expires, or never gets the offer your seller wants? In this Realty Hack panel, agents break down real-world strategies for navigating today's market, where pricing gaps, shifting comps, and seller expectations are creating more expired and withdrawn listings than many agents are used to. You'll learn how top agents are reframing the conversation before a listing goes live, how to position rental strategies as a solution instead of a fallback, and when to introduce short-term and mid-term rentals to protect your client's equity and timeline. The panel features insights from agents specializing in short-term rentals and mid-term rentals, including how each model works, when to use them, and how to evaluate if a property is a fit. The conversation also covers how these strategies help you retain listings, build long-term client relationships, and create future pipeline opportunities. If you're working with sellers who aren't getting the price they want, or you're seeing more listings sit on the market, this is a practical look at how to adapt your approach and keep deals alive. This session was recorded at Realty Hack Summit in Austin, where top agents and operators share what's working right now in real estate.

How AI Assistants Are Changing Real Estate (And Why Some PropTech Will Disappear)

What happens when AI becomes more than a chatbot and starts acting like an assistant inside your real estate business? In this episode of Realty Hack, Ryan sits down with Louis, founder and CEO of HouseWhisper and former Zillow product executive, for a deep conversation on where AI is taking real estate next. They get into how AI assistants can help agents stay on top of follow up, automate CRM tasks, improve accountability, and create better client experiences without adding more complexity. But this conversation goes beyond productivity. Ryan and Louis also dive into a bigger question: what happens to proptech as AI lowers the barrier to building software? They unpack where the industry is headed, what team leaders and brokers should be paying attention to, and why the biggest opportunity may be for those willing to experiment now. Topics include AI assistants for agents, CRM automation, follow up systems, proptech disruption, vibe coding, AI tools for brokers, and how real estate businesses can stay ahead as technology moves faster. If you're curious where AI in real estate is really going, this is a conversation worth watching.

How Young Agents Are Beating Veteran Agents

Most agents think they need years in the business, a big network, and the perfect plan before they can win. This panel proves that's not true. At the Realty Hack Summit, three newer agents break down how they built momentum fast, found their niche, and created real opportunities without waiting for experience or permission. Reganne Queen leaned into her military community and built trust that scaled into leadership. Leelynd Jackson went from zero to flipping multiple properties in his first year by staying in the room and taking action. Austin Anderman turned early first-time buyer leads into a repeatable system that became his niche. The throughline is simple. They didn't wait. They moved. This conversation gets into what actually matters early on. Getting uncomfortable. Showing up consistently. Taking every opportunity. Learning faster than everyone else around you. And getting out of your own head before it slows you down. If you're a newer agent or feel stuck trying to figure out your next move, this is the blueprint most people miss. This is a full panel from the Realty Hack Summit where agents share what's actually working right now.

Real Estate Divorce Deals: Mistakes That Can Kill the Sale

Divorce transactions are some of the most complicated deals a real estate agent will ever handle, and most agents are not prepared for what actually happens behind the scenes. In this conversation with a seasoned divorce attorney, we break down how selling a house during a divorce really works, where agents get into trouble, and how to protect yourself while still getting the deal done. You will learn how divorce decrees impact listing strategy, what documentation you actually need before going live, and how to handle situations where one spouse refuses to cooperate. We also get into communication strategies, legal pitfalls, and how to position yourself as the agent attorneys trust when these deals come up. If you have ever dealt with a difficult transaction, multiply that by two. That is what divorce deals can feel like without the right structure in place. There is also a real opportunity here. Agents who understand this niche and know how to navigate it can become the go-to referral for attorneys and pick up consistent business that most agents avoid. If you want to stay out of trouble and start handling these deals the right way, this is worth your time.
