Ep.30 Dads Doing Deals: The Real Estate Brotherhood Nobody Was Building (Until Now)

Kristen's flying solo this week (sorry, Templeton) and sitting down with Jeff Yates and Mike Doyle, co-founders of the new podcast Dad's Doing Deals, out of Columbus, Ohio.Jeff and Mike run a real estate team together, and this episode is everything: the secret phone call nobody knew about, the friendships that closed doors when they made the jump to Real, and why they believe real estate doesn't have to be as lonely as everyone says.In this episode:• Why Jeff and Mike started Dad's Doing Deals to give fathers in real estate a space to talk raw and unfiltered, something they couldn't find anywhere else• The DM that started it all and the 45-minute phone call nobody knew was happening, not even their wives• What it actually felt like when longtime friends closed the door on the relationship the day their jersey changed• How Real said yes to a three-person team structure nobody had tried before, and how it's paying off a year later• The Real Room they built in Columbus and the ripple effect it's already created (two agents closing new build deals within 14 days of one training)• Why "quiet boom" is the phrase local vendors are using to describe what's happening in Central Ohio right now• The moment Mike realized rev share was basically paying his mortgage every month• What it means to build in a culture of abundance instead of scarcity, and why that shift changes how you show up for other agents• A behind-the-scenes look at how Real's leadership responds when culture issues come up, and why that mattered more than they expectedConnect with Jeff and Mike:Follow Dad's Doing Deals on InstagramJeff: @JWYatesMike: @MrDoyle17If you're a dad in this industry and you're struggling, Jeff and Mike mean it: you don't have to be in their circle to reach out.
