Your Daily Real Estate Podcast with Tristan Ahumada

I learned this the hard way. 87 percent of high performers plan their next day the night before. Not in a sexy way. Not with candles and journals. Just boring consistency that quietly wins while everyone else scrolls. In this episode, I break down the most overlooked evening routine I have seen work again and again for real estate agents, business owners, and leaders. The moment that changed everything for me came during a live interview with a millionaire who said he had no routine. Then he casually listed the same steps he had followed for years. I sat there thinking… cool, so you do have one. You just never named it. I walk through the PREPARE evening routine I built in 2019 and refined through real estate coaching, leadership interviews, and daily execution. It is simple, repeatable, and honestly annoying in how well it works. I cover how evening habits shape focus, productivity, discipline, time management, leadership growth, real estate success, agent mindset, daily planning, morning routine prep, personal development, and decision making. All before you go to bed. Takeaways you will get: Why planning tomorrow tonight lowers stress fast How short movement resets your brain chemistry A smarter way to practice gratitude without the cringe How I shut my brain off without guilt Drop a comment with your current night routine or subscribe for part two. #realestate #routines #productivity #leadership #dailyroutine #mindset #successhabits

Here’s a stat that might make you choke on your morning coffee: I meet with 52 past clients and send 104 handwritten notes every year. Why? Because people actually remember humans, not fancy funnels or ad spend. I’m Tristan, I run Lab Coat Agents, a real estate business for 22 years, and now Y Realty, plus this little podcast called Your Daily Real Estate. Over the years, I discovered a simple system I call The Process, a way to focus on actionable priorities, schedule them on my calendar, and actually finish what I start.  Here’s what you’ll take away: • How I plan client events, coffees, and handwritten notes so they actually notice me • Why spacing 52 one-on-ones throughout the year keeps relationships alive • How to make social media posts relevant instead of background noise • Turning vague goals into clear, actionable steps that get real results Stop chasing strangers. Start connecting with humans. Comment if you’re running a similar system. Subscribe if you’re done pretending humans don’t matter.   #realestate #prospecting #relationshipmarketing #dailyrealestate #tristanahumada #realestateagents #leadgeneration #purposefulprospecting #agentlife #clientrelationships #salesstrategy #businessgrowth #humanconnection #socialselling #pastclients

Welcome to Part 2 of my purposeful prospecting series. If you missed Part 1, go binge that one first, trust me, it’s like the prequel everyone needed but nobody watched. Yesterday, I walked you through the “five calls a day” and the “20 minutes of social engagement” steps. Today, we’re getting into numbers three, four, and five of this simple, yet shockingly effective system. Imagine doing this every day for 30 days, your business might actually start running without all the fake hustle and annoying funnel nonsense. I’ll show you: • How one thoughtful post a day can attract the right people without begging for likes • Why meeting or engaging with one new person daily (yes, in real life or online) changes everything • How sending a handwritten note can make people feel human again, shocking, I know This isn’t random busy work. It’s all about dopamine, human connection, and proving that the real estate business is still, believe it or not, a people business. Comment if you’re crushing the 30-day challenge. Subscribe if you’re done wasting time on empty calls.   #realestate #prospecting #relationshipmarketing #dailyrealestate #tristanahumada #realestateagents #leadgeneration #purposefulprospecting #agentlife #clientrelationships #salesstrategy #businessgrowth #realestatetips #humanconnection #socialselling

Five calls a day. For 30 days. That’s the whole plan. No funnels. No ads. No pretending I “love providing value” while secretly begging the algorithm for attention. In this episode, I lay out purposeful prospecting, a relationship-first real estate system that feels almost rebellious in 2026 because it actually involves talking to real humans. Wild concept, I know. After 22 years as a real estate agent and 12 years running Lab Coat Agents, I explain why most agents fail at prospecting. They rush it. They repeat it too often. They sound fake. And then they wonder why people stop answering. The fix isn’t more calls. It’s better spacing, better questions, and shutting up long enough to listen. I break down why calling five people you already know every day beats chasing strangers, how one awkwardly honest question opens real conversations, and why social media works best when you stop treating it like a billboard and start treating it like a room full of people. This isn’t hustle culture. It’s human psychology. And it works every single time. You’ll learn: • Why 60-day spacing keeps relationships alive • The exact opener that disarms people instantly • How listening creates opportunity without pitching • Why dopamine beats desperation every time Comment if you’re running the 30-day challenge. Subscribe if you’re done playing checkers.   #realestate #realestateagents #prospecting #salesstrategy #relationshipmarketing #entrepreneur #businessgrowth

Over 90 percent of real estate agents skip this daily system and then act genuinely confused when their business feels messy. In this episode, I break down the exact three daily tasks my brokerage uses while expanding into another state. Same setup. Same habits. Same results. Shockingly boring. Annoyingly effective. This is top 1 of the top 7 videos on this channel and also the most watched video we’ve ever posted. It is not new. It is not trendy. We’re reuploading it because too many people missed it the first time and frankly, more people should not be struggling without this. I walk through how I set up daily real estate tasks, how I rename and number them so my brain stops negotiating every morning, and how I use ChatGPT for real estate content without spiraling into perfection mode. This covers daily habits for real estate agents, local market updates, real estate social media posting, business reflection prompts, real estate productivity systems, simple checklists, content ideas, and consistency that does not depend on motivation or vibes. If this clicks, you will realize you were not missing talent. You were missing a system. What you’ll walk away with: • The 3 daily real estate tasks most agents quietly avoid • How I use ChatGPT to create one social post or video idea per day • A daily local market update habit that compounds without drama • One business reflection prompt that keeps me sharp and slightly humbled   #realestate #realestateagent #dailyrealestate #chatgptforrealestate #realestatecontent #realestateproductivity #realestatemarketing

I’ve done this daily for about a month, and yeah, it quietly changed how I show up every single morning. In episode, I explain how I reorganized my ChatGPT tasks, numbered them, and accidentally trained myself to stay consistent. Not inspirational. Just effective. This is top 2 of the top 7 videos on this channel, and we’re reuploading it because the first time around, a lot of people missed it. That’s unfortunate because more agents could be using this to stop winging their day and start with a plan that already thinks for them. I walk through how I use ChatGPT for real estate news, local market updates, finance news, social media ideas, Reddit trends, and area-specific updates. I show how daily real estate tasks shut off if you ignore them, which turns out to be the accountability feature nobody asked for but everyone needs. This covers daily habits for real estate agents, real estate productivity systems, AI workflows, real estate content planning, local real estate news, and consistency without motivation speeches. By the end, you’ll realize your problem was never time. It was direction. What you’ll take away: • How I number ChatGPT tasks so my mornings stop being chaotic • Why AI shuts off tasks when you ignore them and why that helps • A daily local market update system for any city • How to turn ChatGPT into a real workflow, not a toy   #realestate #realestateagent #dailyrealestate #chatgptforrealestate #realestatecontent #realestateproductivity #aiworkflow #localmarketupdate

I ran this one AI prompt with a friend at our brokerage and then just sat back and watched their social media take off. New account. Zero followers. About 1,300 followers in under 60 days. Casual. In this episode, I go through the exact prompt I use to show up better on social media without pretending to be someone I’m not. This is top 3 of the top 7 videos on this channel, and we’re resurfacing it because too many people are still guessing what to post, who they’re talking to, and why their content feels off. This video fixes that uncomfortable silence between posting and hoping. I walk through how I use ChatGPT for personal branding, content strategy, social media ideas, platform breakdowns, audience clarity, and daily content planning. This covers real estate social media, AI content prompts, personal brand building, real estate marketing, short form video ideas, YouTube strategy, TikTok strategy, Instagram Reels, and content consistency without trying to go viral on purpose. If this lands, you’ll stop asking “what should I post” and start understanding why certain content actually works for you. What you’ll take away: • The exact AI prompt I use to show up better online • How ChatGPT pulls your strengths, voice, and audience together • Why guessing your content strategy is the slowest path • How one prompt can outline months of content ideas   #realestate #realestateagent #dailyrealestate #chatgptforrealestate #realestatesocialmedia #personalbranding #contentideas #aitools

I’ve spent years listening to professors, bestselling authors, and people who literally help presidents write speeches. Not for fun. For patterns. In this episode, I share the six daily questions I’ve refined over the last two years while building YRealty. These are not motivational posters. These are the questions that stop small problems from becoming expensive ones. This is top 4 of the top 7 videos on this channel, and we’re bringing it back because most people are still reacting to their day instead of choosing how they show up in it. I walk through how I use daily reflection questions, mindset check ins, leadership habits, and simple self audits to stay clear before meetings, decisions, and conversations. This covers daily habits for real estate agents, leadership development, business reflection prompts, real estate mindset, personal growth, journaling with AI, and decision making without spiraling. If you actually use these, you’ll notice something uncomfortable. You were not overwhelmed. You were unexamined. What you’ll take away: • The 6 daily questions I actually use • How to check your mindset before leading others • Why avoiding things quietly costs more later • One question that protects your energy and health   #realestate #realestateagent #dailyrealestate #leadership #mindset #personalgrowth #businesshabits #selfleadership

Most agents say they want better local content. Then they post a blurry photo and call it a strategy. In this episode, I share the exact AI prompt I use to create genuine local content that homeowners actually care about, in any city, without spending your entire afternoon on Canva. This is top 5 of the top 7 videos on this channel, and we’re reuploading it because people keep asking how to post local real estate content without sounding salesy, awkward, or like every other agent on the block. This solves that problem quietly. I break down how I use ChatGPT for local real estate marketing, community content ideas, video outlines, graphic post ideas, and simple lead magnets that can be built fast. This covers real estate social media, local market content, homeowner tips, community posts, neighborhood guides, real estate content ideas, AI prompts for agents, and daily posting systems that don’t feel forced. If you use this once, you’ll get ideas. If you use it daily, people will start recognizing you. What you’ll take away: • One AI prompt that creates local content for any city • Video and graphic ideas homeowners actually engage with • Two simple lead magnet ideas you can build in minutes • How to post consistently without sounding like an ad   #realestate #realestateagent #dailyrealestate #chatgptforrealestate #localcontent #realestatemarketing #contentideas #aiforagents

Most agents don’t fail on social media because they lack ideas. They fail because they do too much, everywhere, all at once. In this episode of Your Daily Real Estate, I lay out four simple rules for showing up better online without frying your brain or confusing your audience. This is the top 6 of the top 7 videos on this channel, and we’re reviving it because people need to know why posting feels exhausting and why results feel random. This video explains why. And yes, it’s usually self-inflicted. I break down how to pick one platform, lock in a schedule, share what you’re already learning, repurpose content that works, and stay on one story long enough for people to actually follow you. This covers real estate social media, content consistency, Instagram posting schedules, short-form video, repurposing content, teleprompter tips, real estate marketing habits, and daily posting systems that don’t spiral. If you apply this, social media stops feeling like chaos and starts feeling… manageable. Which is apparently rare. What you’ll take away: • How to choose one platform and stop bouncing around • A simple weekly posting rhythm that makes sense • Why your best content deserves a second life • How to stay on topic so people actually listen   #realestate #realestateagent #dailyrealestate #realestatesocialmedia #contentstrategy #shortformvideo #realestatemarketing #agenttips
