20 Fantastic Real Estate Podcasts You Need to Listen to Today

Podcasting is no longer a fringe marketing tactic. In fact, look at the real estate websites for agents in your market and you’re bound to come across at least a few real estate podcasts that offer tips on the home buying process, how to sell a home quickly, or other housing-related topics.

On the national level, there are also many podcasts that share sage advice for agents: everything from business best practices to rewarding real estate marketing ideas.

There’s no need to head to Google to find the cream-of-the-crop podcasts for agents and brokers, though.

We’ve rounded up 20 of the industry’s best real estate podcasts, so learn about each of them below and sample some of their finest episodes.

WaterCooler with Chris Smith and Jimmy Mackin

The intersection of business, marketing, and real estate — that’s the best way to describe this informative podcast from the Curaytor cofounders, which regularly features the best and brightest industry minds and marketing experts, including Gary Vaynerchuk and Rand Fishkin. Starting a podcast that seamlessly integrates the worlds of real estate sales and inbound marketing was a smart move on the part of Smith and Mackin, as agents’ and brokers’ lead generation efforts are increasingly online.

Real Estate Coaching Radio with Tim and Julie Harris

You know you’re doing something right when your real estate agent podcast has an average audience of more than 100,000 listeners. The husband-and-wife duo of Tim and Julie Harris has mastered the art of podcasting with their series, which dispenses advice to agents and brokers on many subjects, and includes counsel from many industry pros, ranging from top producers to well-known executives who have done well for themselves and have applicable experiences to share with the real estate world.

Agent Caffeine with Kelly Mitchell

Since the turn of the decade, Kelly Mitchell has put out more than 230 episodes of her esteemed Agent Caffeine podcast series, which, as you might suspect by the title, helps agents and brokers add a little pep to their real estate marketing and sales efforts.

Whether you want to learn about the latest industry tech from those creating it, get advice on how to sell your services to niche demographics, or discover the best new lead generation tactics, Mitchell and Co. cover it all. Add in the fact that Mitchell fully grasps the importance of real estate social media marketing, as evidenced by her many followers on pretty much every social network, and you know you can trust the info she offers on her podcast.

Modern American Realtor with Corey and Casey Wright

Ask the experts how to start podcasting the right way and you’ll likely get one common answer: focus on branding. That’s what the Wright brothers (no, not those Wright brothers) have done so well with their up-and-coming podcast that focuses on the essentials for agents (how to start your career off on the right foot, succeeding as a businessperson in general) and even some fringe real estate topics (how to prevent cyber attacks, tips on recruiting and hiring Millennials). Nearly each and every episode takes place in front of a sleek Wright Brothers, Inc. sign with the duo posing their own distinct thoughts and opinions on all things real estate — not a bad way to become memorable with your digital marketing.

Mobile Agent TV with Michael Thorne and David Fauquier

Google Hangouts remains one of the more underused real estate marketing tools around today. Aside from offering a premier way to converse with leads and clients and host webinars and live Q&A sessions, the streaming platform is also the perfect medium to host real estate podcasts. Just ask Thorne and Fauquier, who have successfully integrated the service into their online presence over the past several years. The second each episode completes filming, you can upload your clips to your YouTube channel — a task the aforementioned pair of RE/MAX agents have done routinely to grow their network. Think of practically any industry “how-to” scenario you want to learn more about (building a referral network, embed yourself into your local community, etc.) and it’s likely been covered by the highly respected Mobile Agent TV crew.

Unlisted with Brad Inman

Though still in its infancy, this burgeoning podcast from Inman News Founder Brad Inman is sure to become one of the preeminent real estate podcasts. His deep comprehension of all things real estate and top industry connections will lead to some intriguing episodes in the future. Whereas many of the podcasts featured in this list provide information on becoming a better agent through direct, actionable advice, Inman’s podcast appears to aim for a more international flair, with his first two episodes focused on volatile markets worldwide and how China could impact the U.S. housing market. Just like his much-admired (and -attended) Inman Connect real estate conferences, Inman’s podcast is bound to become a hit among the agent and broker community.

Real Estate Realities with The Rebel Broker with Robert Whitelaw

While those starting out in real estate may have opinions on the state of the industry and where the local, regional, and national markets are headed, experienced agents and brokers who have seen it all can offer a more comprehensive outlook — one that is more informed than their novice counterparts. Take California Realtor Robert Whitelaw, for example: His 25 years of experience has led to roughly 250 episodes of his real estate podcast, each of which supplies listeners with his adept take on topics including home builder confidence, foreclosures’ impact on the entire market, and the feasibility of renting to own. As Whitelaw notes, he keeps things honest in his podcast, so you’ll get the unfiltered truth on a variety of subjects by tuning in.

The Niche Agent Podcast with Ryan Smith

A good portion of the most popular real estate podcasts published today offer takes on the investment side of things — like Smith’s aptly titled podcast. If you’re interested in breaking into the world of real estate investment to supplement (or perhaps eventually replace) your career in residential sales, you’ll find the insights needed to take that next step by listening to the Niche Agent Podcast. Smith interviews industry pros who have crafted — you guessed it — niche roles for themselves, and gets them to divulge just how they were able to do so. So, if you want to discover how your peers grow their careers by relying mostly on agent-to-agent referrals or build large networks by giving back to their communities, this is the podcast for you.

Conversations That Matter with Teri Conrad

The name says it all: Conversations That Matter features informal yet informative chats with the best of the best in the real estate biz and other fields as well. For every episode featuring a real estate influencer like Sean Carpenter or Matt Beall, there’s another equally enthralling edition featuring a “confidence coach” like Dan Munro or business coach like Matthew Ferrara. The leisurely nature and tone of Conversations That Matter allows for an enjoyable listening experience that makes it easy to absorb the wisdom shared by Conrad and her guests.

Super Agents Live with Toby Salgado


Hearing directly from top producers is definitely an excellent method for pushing yourself to become one, so if that’s your ambition, this real estate agent podcast from self-proclaimed serial entrepreneur Toby Salgado, who’s had his fair share of success in and out of the industry, is for you.

Are you looking to build a luxury real estate brand? This episode with Las Vegas Realtor Ivan Sher on managing high-end clients’ expectations could help you close more lucrative deals. If you’re willing to mix things up with your business approach, this is a podcast to listen to often.
