#690: From Rock Bottom to Market Domination with Brent Gove

Episode Summary:

In this high-octane episode, John Kitchens, Jay Kinder, and Al Stasek are joined by Brent Gove, for a powerhouse conversation that throws it back to the early days, unpacks the current state of real estate, and challenges every agent to rise up. From legendary stories of 2010 open house energy to the hard truths about today's market correction, this episode is a wake-up call to get in the right rooms, master lead generation, and paddle for the wave that’s building now.

Brent Gove delivers pure fire—talking about energy, vision, and how frustration is the real precursor to breakthrough. You’ll hear raw truths, real stats, and timeless principles that apply whether you're struggling to survive or ready to dominate.

Key Takeaways:

• Success Leaves Clues:
  The secret to breaking through isn’t a secret—it’s getting in the room with people playing bigger than you and doing what they do until it works.

• The Force of Average Is Real:
  Every time you commit to a higher level, the universe tests you. Expect resistance. Push anyway. That’s how transformation happens.

• Lead Gen or Die:
  The #1 skill in real estate—bar none—is lead generation. If you’re not mastering it, you’re not going to make it through this market.

• Big Goals Drive Big Growth:
  Brent shares how setting a goal to close 30 homes in a month—when he’d never done more than 7—led to him doubling his personal record.

• Real Market Talk:
  77% of LOs didn’t renew last year. Most agents are struggling. But the pruning is creating massive opportunity for those willing to step up now.

• Events and Energy Matter:
  The biggest shifts come when you’re around high-energy, high-belief people. From Build to Cabo to Cleveland—you need to show up.
