In this episode, we sit down with Denver realtor, investor, foodie, and all-around momentum machine Gerard Langhuoth —a man who built his success by never stopping. From growing up working every job in his family’s Chinese restaurants to managing a $70M distribution operation and running his own retail shop, Gerard has been connecting with people his whole life. Now he’s stacking his best real estate years ever by staying active, staying real, and giving back to his community with zero expectation in return.

We dive into:
• How “activity creates activity” became his business motto
• Why authenticity beats every sales tactic
• The role community events and support play in his growth
• His best routines, habits, and mindset for consistency
• What’s coming next at Guide Real Estate and his upcoming broker open events
