Your Daily Real Estate Podcast with Tristan Ahumada

Everyone’s still arguing about SEO and AEO while Google quietly dropped a new acronym: GEO, Generative Engine Optimization. Yep, the machines now summarize your career before clients even meet you. Think of GEO as the AI version of your nosy neighbor, except it reads the entire internet and decides if you’re worth recommending. Here’s the fun part: if you’re not showing up in AI overviews, you might as well be invisible. In this episode, I break down how real estate agents can actually get noticed by the algorithms that are already judging us. You’ll learn why AI doesn’t recommend nobodies, how to stop sounding like a marketing robot, and how to bribe the algorithm (ethically, relax) into putting you in those top search results. Comment “GEO” if you want the guide, and subscribe before AI replaces me too.   #realestateagent #seo #aeo #geo #realestatetips #chatgptforagents #googleai #realestatetraining #realtormarketing #artificialintelligence

So apparently, SEO isn’t dead, it just got a glow-up and changed its name to AEO (Answer Engine Optimization). Yeah, the same thing Alexa uses to snitch on which real estate agents actually show up online. Meanwhile, I’m still over here fighting with Google about why my blog isn’t ranking for “homes for sale near me.” Here’s the thing, the real estate game has officially gone voice-first. AI tools like ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini aren’t just helping write content anymore, they’re deciding which real estate agent gets picked when someone shouts, “Hey Alexa, who’s the best agent in Ventura?” And if that doesn’t make you rethink your marketing strategy, I don’t know what will. In this episode, I’m breaking down exactly how to show up in voice search results, Google snippets, and AI recommendations, without needing a PhD in algorithms. I’ll show you how to use hyperlocal keywords, FAQ-style blogs, and short-form videos that help AI actually notice you exist. Spoiler: it’s not about stuffing “buy a home in Los Angeles” 400 times into your blog post (though, yeah, we’ll talk about real estate SEO the right way). I’ll walk you through how to write short, clear, “human” answers that AI loves to quote, because apparently robots appreciate brevity more than your clients do. I’ll also share how to use tools like AnswerThePublic, Reddit, and your own Google Business Profile to find what people are really asking about buying a home, selling property, and real estate listings in your area. And yes, I’m throwing in my actual AEO framework, the same one I built with the help of ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini, then ran through my real estate systems for YRealty and Tristan Ahumada’s brand. It’s part SEO, part chaos, and a whole lot of sarcasm. If you’ve ever wondered how to make AI recognize your real estate business, show up in local search results, or finally get free real estate leads without begging the algorithm for attention, this one’s for you. Just type AEO in the comments if you want the full guide. Or message me on Instagram, and I’ll send it straight to you, because unlike Alexa, I actually reply.   #realestateagent #aiinrealestate #seo #digitalmarketing #contentcreation #realestatetips #chatgpt #googlemarketing #aeo

You know what’s wild? Around 90% of agents still aren’t using ChatGPT daily, and then they wonder why they’re stressed, behind, and posting the same “Just Listed!” captions as everyone else. Meanwhile, my team and I have this thing running like our digital assistant that never sleeps (and honestly, never complains). In this episode, I’m breaking down the 3 ChatGPT tasks every real estate agent should set up before their coffee even cools. I’m talking about your daily market update at 6 a.m. (because you love starting the day ahead of everyone else), a daily post idea that actually sounds human, and a business reflection that makes you smarter without a Tony Robbins seminar. These aren’t hypotheticals, I use these exact prompts every day, and they’ve turned my mornings into pure productivity gold mine. Comment tasks if you want the full prompts. Just make sure you spell it right, because AI still has standards.   #realestateagent #chatgpt #realtorlife #aiinrealestate #automation #realestatetips #digitalmarketing #yourdailyrealestate

The algorithm doesn’t hate you, it’s just ignoring you like a bad Tinder match. In this episode, I break down five brutally honest reasons your content isn’t growing (and yes, it’s mostly your fault). If you’re a real estate agent, creator, or small business owner wondering why your “masterpiece” got 12 views, this one’s for you. You’ll learn: • Why posting once a month isn’t a “strategy”, it’s ghosting your audience • How engagement is earned, not a participation trophy • The hook mistake that makes your videos sound like an awkward voicemail • Why clarity beats cleverness (and your audience secretly loves simple) Stop blaming the algorithm. Start acting like someone worth recommending. Drop “algorithm” in the comments if you’re brave enough to admit it’s you, not the machine.   #socialmediatips #contentstrategy #realtorlife #instagramgrowth #youtubealgorithm #contentcreator #realestatetips #brandgrowth

Apparently, 80% of real estate agents say they “use AI.” What does this mean? They asked ChatGPT to write a caption once and called it a day. In this episode, I break down AI for real estate agents in plain English, no tech-speak, no Silicon Valley energy, just what actually helps you sell more homes without losing your mind. AI isn’t here to steal your job (unless your job is doing nothing). It’s your unpaid intern who writes listing descriptions, handles lead follow-up, and even summarizes those housing market reports you pretend to read. I share my go-to ChatGPT prompts for realtors, how to automate like a god, and which AI tools for real estate actually work. What you’ll learn: • 4 simple AI prompts that make you look like you work 24/7 • How to send follow-ups that sound human, not “I am a bot” • Which AI tools will save you hours (and your sanity) • Why empathy still wins, even when the robots are faster Drop your favorite AI app for realtors in the comments or subscribe before the robots start charging commission.   #hashtags: #realestateai #chatgptforagents #realtortips #aiprompts #realestatetech #realestateautomation #realtorlife #aiassistant #realestatemarketing #realestatehumor

82% of agents say stress is their biggest challenge. The other 18% are probably lying or already retired. Real estate can chew you up and spit you out with a smile, and that’s just Monday. Between clients who think Zillow is gospel and deals that crash harder than your Wi-Fi, this job can feel like emotional CrossFit. In this brutally honest episode, I share four ways to stay sane in real estate before you start showing homes in your sleep. Here’s what’s inside the survival kit: • How to reset when your deal goes up in flames • Why client tantrums aren’t your fault (even if they swear they are) • How to say “no” without your bank account crying • The one reminder that keeps you from rage-quitting on a Tuesday If your phone rings after midnight, this video’s basically therapy.

Everyone’s busy worshiping ChatGPT, but Google still runs the internet. Yep, Google controls 92% of search traffic and owns the top two most-visited websites in the world (Google Search and YouTube). So if you’re in business, especially real estate, you can’t afford to ghost Google. In this episode, I break down the Google 7, seven tools every business should use before 2026 shows up and your competitors outrank you while you’re still asking AI what a “snippet” is. You’ll learn: • The one Google profile update that brings in free local leads • Why YouTube is still your best long-term search play • How to use Gemini AI to land “Position Zero” on Google • Why ignoring Google Reviews is basically SEO self-sabotage Drop a comment if you’re using any of these tools, or pretending you will.

Many real estate agents hold off on planning events until December. They end up panicking and throwing together something basic, like a cookie table. Agents should avoid that approach. In this episode, I discuss five holiday event ideas that truly deliver results. These ideas do not leave people exhausted. Planners have about enough weeks left, that means there is still enough time to make it seem like everything was organized from the start of the year. Events can involve holiday photos with hot cocoa. Others might feature a Friendsgiving picnic. Some include pictures taken with Santa. All of these help agents rebuild ties with existing clients. They also allow meetings with potential new contacts. Plus, agents come across as key figures in the local area, they do not fade into the background like forgotten presences. Listeners will learn several practical things before any overwhelming fatigue sets in: Five straightforward holiday event concepts suited for November and December in real estate. Ways to transform community gatherings into enduring client connections. Why something simple like free cocoa outperforms traditional cold calling efforts. Guidance for agents who prefer minimal effort but want to plan events professionally. You can share your top holiday event suggestion in the comments. You may also describe a complete failure from the past. Subscribing brings more advice on real estate marketing strategies, including fresh community event concepts and lead generation methods that don’t cause discomfort.

Only 3% of real estate agents actually journal about their business, and, surprise, they’re usually the ones who aren’t crying into their coffee after a lost listing. In this episode of Your Daily Real Estate, I spill how five simple journaling habits can help you sell more homes, stay focused, and maybe even sleep at night. If you’ve ever thought “I’ll remember that client’s dog’s name,” you won’t. Journaling helps real estate agents track leads, reflect after showings, plan weekly goals, and keep their mindset in check when the market’s acting weird (again). What you’ll get before you toss that notebook: • How daily journaling makes prospecting suck less • The one page that could actually double your listings • Why writing down client notes beats pretending you’ll remember • How gratitude journaling keeps burnout off your calendar Comment with your favorite journaling trick, or your best excuse for not starting, and subscribe for more real estate tips, mindset habits, and agent success stories that actually work.   #realestateagents #realtorlife #realestatetips #mindset #journaling #productivity #tristanahumada #realtoradvice
