Episode 8 - Simon Pintado: Resilience and the Power of Discipline

In this episode, Matt and Emily sit down with Simon Pintado, Director at Buxton Bentleigh, to explore the highs, lows, and lessons from his journey in real estate.

Simon opens up about resilience - from being fired on the last day of his probation to landing a life-changing opportunity by chance. He shares how discipline shapes success, why young agents can struggle with empathy, and the importance of giving the right advice for the client - not for yourself.

They also dive into the realities of today’s market, the impact of agents cutting fees to win business, and why reputation takes years to build but only moments to destroy. Plus, Simon talks about his health and fasting journey, the mindset shift after becoming a father, and why he values working with buyer’s advocates.
