In the fast-evolving world of real estate, successful team leadership requires a blend of vision, innovation and a deep commitment to serving clients. Tim Macy, a well-respected team lead and broker at Real with a downline of some 9,000 agents, exemplifies these qualities through his unique approach to building and guiding a high-performing real estate team.
In this interview, Macy shares his insights on leadership, technology and the changing landscape of the real estate market.
Q: Tim, tell us a little about your journey into real estate and how you became a team lead.
Tim Macy: I got out of the Air Force and found myself starting over in San Antonio with nothing. My wife and I didn’t know anyone there. I was mowing lawns and driving for Uber to make ends meet.
While mowing lawns at apartment complexes, I would listen to real estate investment podcasts, imagining myself owning apartment complexes one day. Getting licensed in real estate seemed like a natural next step to push forward on the investment side.
It’s funny how it came full circle because now, I do invest in apartment complexes. But what really pulled me in was helping people. I found that solving people’s problems was even more fulfilling than just making financial deals.
Q: What do you think sets your team apart from others in the industry?
Tim Macy: Our approach is focused on value over obligation. I think there’s this idea that agents should do enough little things for their clients so they feel obligated to work with them. Instead, we prioritize providing meaningful and relevant value to our clients.
Our content, communication and follow-ups are all about what is important to them, not what benefits us. This strategy of being helpful rather than manipulative has been key to building real relationships and trust.
Q: Can you share some of the challenges you’ve faced as a team lead and how you overcame them?
Tim Macy: One of the biggest challenges is profitability. New team leaders often chase top-line numbers like sales volume and GCI but neglect profitability. Growth doesn’t solve profitability problems; it usually makes them worse.
I’ve also learned that hiring the right admin and onboarding them correctly makes a big difference. You have to list everything you do and break it down into specific tasks before hiring someone to handle them.
Q: Technology is reshaping the real estate industry. How is your team adapting to these changes?
Tim Macy: We embrace technology as a tool to enhance, not replace, the human element of real estate. AI, for example, has made it easier to analyze market trends and provide clients with the most relevant information. But at the end of the day, relationships are everything.
We use technology to improve efficiency and enhance the client experience, but our focus remains on building meaningful connections.
Q: What advice would you give to aspiring team leads in real estate?
Tim Macy: Focus on profitability first. Track your net profit, and make sure your systems are efficient before expanding your team. Bringing on agents without systems in place will only lead to chaos. Also, don’t be afraid to be selfish initially.
Keep production to yourself, and hire support before giving away leads. Otherwise, you’ll end up burning out and losing control of your business.
Q: What’s next for you and your team? What are you most excited about?
Tim Macy: We moved from Texas to Connecticut, which was a challenging transition because Texas is a booming market, while Connecticut is more stable. However, we’ve been able to grow by partnering with agents and building strong marketing systems.
Since June, we’ve done about $30 million in sales. We have an organization of 9,000 agents and a team of 10, allowing us to work on both the macro and micro levels of real estate challenges. My goal is to continue refining our systems to better serve our clients and help agents grow their businesses.
Tim Macy’s journey as a team lead showcases the importance of innovation, adaptability and genuine leadership in real estate. His approach of providing meaningful value to clients, focusing on profitability and embracing technology demonstrates a sustainable model for success.
As the real estate industry continues to evolve, leaders like Macy are proving that success isn’t just about closing deals — it’s about building strong, supportive teams dedicated to delivering exceptional client experiences.

One of the most lasting impacts of the pandemic-era real estate market has been the rise in home values across the market spectrum — in-town, rural and suburban areas, along with traditional luxury enclaves. It’s led to the question in many quarters: What constitutes a luxury home in today’s landscape?
With median home prices still on the rise at more than $400,000, a lot of agents are suddenly showing what used to be relatively mid-level homes that are now sitting north of $1 million. That means they can, in many cases, expect a commission of at least $30,000. Yet, they’re still showing those million-dollar homes the same way they’d show a $300,000 starter home back in the day — sign in the yard and lockbox on the doorknob.
I recently saw a great video from Las Vegas brokers Jon Gafford and Gavin Ernstone where they talked about this issue. Agents in their area are putting homes on the market for more than a million dollars and telling the buyer’s agent, “Just turn on the lights when you get there and lock up when you leave.”
If you’re making $30,000 on one sale, you can afford to show up and make sure that listing is showing at its best. You can afford to turn on the water feature and make sure the home is ready for prime time.
High-net-worth clients are not touring properties on their lunch break — they’re investing in a lifestyle. These buyers expect a curated, guided experience — not an agent fumbling for a key in a lockbox or skipping the tour entirely when the house is a mess.
Ready to elevate your luxury showings?
If you’re going to list a million-dollar property, you need to show up like it, literally and figuratively. Luxury real estate isn’t about unlocking a door — it’s about unlocking a feeling, a vision, a lifestyle.
Here’s how to step up and deliver:
Be present
Being present starts before the showing. If you don’t know the buyer agent well, reach out and connect with them. This gives you an opportunity to build rapport and to find out more about the buyer so that you can tailor the showing to their needs.
Unless the seller explicitly requests it, do not use a lockbox on a luxury property. Show up and conduct a personal walkthrough, which gives you a chance to control the narrative and manage the energy. None of that can happen if you’re not there.
If you absolutely cannot be onsite for a showing due to a pre-planned scheduling conflict, make sure that a trusted member of your staff or team is there and that they’re fully prepared to step up in your absence and show that property the same way you would.
Know the property
Know the square footage, materials, upgrades, systems and story of the home cold. Be ready to speak to its architecture, craftsmanship, neighborhood, comps and design details without glancing at a sheet.
If the home has an interesting story (like celebrity owners, a notable architect or a restoration story), lead with that. Emotional hooks sell and make the potential buyer feel more connected to the property and its history.
Stage for maximum impact
Talk to the sellers about the home’s condition at the beginning of the listing process, and make sure that you’ve conducted a thorough walkthrough to take note of any obvious repair items or areas of deferred maintenance. If the home is being sold for top dollar, its condition must reflect that.
Arrive early, and make sure that the home is ready to show. If there are pets in the home, ensure that they are secured in an area of the house that has been designated for that purpose. (If possible, ask the sellers to consider boarding pets temporarily during the showing process.)
Treat every showing like an event by setting the temperature and lighting before the buyer arrives. Highlight the home’s features when possible. For example, if the home has a great whole-house sound system, cue up a curated playlist that fits the home’s style.
Subtle scents like fresh flowers or luxury candles can create an elevated mood and show that the home is being taken care of properly. Stale or stinky air is an immediate turnoff, no matter what price point you’re working with.
Create a sense of occasion
Offer refreshments or small touches that elevate the moment: bottled water, espresso, luxury brochures. Treat potential buyers as guests in the home, and make sure they are comfortable.
Offer space when needed, but don’t disappear completely. Be available to re-engage as the tour progresses while still offering privacy for the buyer to consult with their agent.
Tailor the experience
Know who’s coming to see the house, and prepare accordingly. Your talking points and pace will vary depending on the buyer profile, and the language you speak will differ for a developer, a young couple or an experienced second-home buyer from out of state.
Anticipate questions the buyer will have, and answer them before they ask. Make notes of any additional information requested so that you can research it and follow up promptly.
Follow up like a pro
Within 12 hours, send a personalized follow-up. This is not a time for boilerplate language: Reference something the buyer responded to emotionally to show that you were paying attention during the showing.
Include any supplemental information the buyer may have requested: floorplans, permits, potential for expansion, etc. Keep the door open for follow-up conversations as needed.
Lockboxes have their place — for backup access, contractor entries or buyer’s agents wishing to preview a home. But when they become the standard for million-dollar listings, you’re not marketing luxury — you’re phoning it in.
This isn’t about showboating. It’s about stewardship. Sellers are trusting you with their most valuable asset. Buyers are walking into one of the biggest decisions of their lives. You’re not just a door opener — you’re a professional representative with a fiduciary responsibility to do the best job possible for your client. Treat it like it matters, because it does.

With more homes to choose from, purchase loan applications were up 18 percent from a year ago last week as buyers forged ahead despite economic uncertainty.

Homebuyers came out in force again last week as mortgage rates found some stability, with demand for purchase loans climbing for the second week in a row, according to a weekly survey of lenders by the Mortgage Bankers Association.
The MBA’s Weekly Mortgage Applications Survey showed purchase loan applications were up by a seasonally adjusted 2 percent last week when compared to the week before, and up 18 percent from a year ago.
“Last week saw steadier mortgage rates, as the [Federal Reserve] meeting played as predicted, and market movements led to a small two-basis point increase in the 30-year conforming rate to 6.86 percent,” MBA Chief Economist Mike Fratantoni said in a statement.
While refi applications were essentially unchanged from the week before, falling by 0.4 percent, requests to refinance were up 44 percent from a year ago.
Mike Fratantoni
“The news for the week was the growth in purchase applications,” Fratantoni said. “Despite the economic uncertainty, the increase in home inventory means there are additional properties to buy, unlike the last two years, and this supply is supporting more transactions.”
Nationwide, there were 31 percent more homes for sale in April than there were a year ago, according to Realtor.com data. The 959,251 active for-sale listings that homebuyers had to choose from last month surpassed April 2020 levels, marking a new post-pandemic high.
Federal Reserve policymakers let a key short-term interest rate stand last week and are no longer expected to start cutting rates in June due to uncertainties over the Trump administration’s future moves on tariffs, immigration, taxation and regulation.
Administration officials have rolled out new or revised tariff policies 55 times this year, according to a tariff tracker maintained by the law firm Reed Smith.
The Trump administration on Monday announced a 90-day pause on a “reciprocal tariff” on goods from China announced April 2, reducing the effective tariffs on many Chinese imports from 145 percent to 30 percent.
The news sent stock markets and mortgage rates higher, with investors less fearful of a recession but still wary of inflation.
Monday’s reduction of tariffs on Chinese imports, and a trade deal with the United Kingdom, leaves the overall average effective tariff rate on U.S. imports at 17.8 percent — the highest since 1934, according to an analysis by The Budget Lab at Yale.
The Consumer Price Index for April, released Tuesday, showed prices were up 2.3 percent from a year ago last month — closer to the Fed’s 2 percent goal than the 3 percent annual inflation registered in January.
Inflation headed in the right direction
But the April CPI report contained “early signs of tariffs pushing up goods prices, with much more to come,” forecasters at Pantheon Macroeconomics warned in their May 14 U.S. Economic Monitor.
The economic policy uncertainty generated by tariffs and a drop in consumer confidence “is forcing providers of discretionary services to reduce prices,” Pantheon economists noted. “The upward impact on inflation from the tariffs will build rapidly over the coming months, but we continue to think that services inflation will cool, providing some offset and enabling the Fed to ease policy in the second half of this year.”
The Federal Reserve’s preferred inflation gauge — the Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) Price Index — showed annual inflation falling from 2.7 percent in February to 2.3 percent in March. The PCE Price Index for April will be released May 30.
Futures markets tracked by the CME FedWatch tool show investors don’t expect the Fed to resume rate cuts until Sept. 17.
Mortgage rates stabilize
Rates on 30-year fixed-rate conforming mortgages have been edging up this month, but at 6.81 percent on Tuesday were still 20 basis points lower than a 2025 high of 7.05 percent registered on Jan. 14, according to rate lock data tracked by Optimal Blue.
Optimal Blue data shows rates on 30-year fixed-rate loans hit a 2025 low of 6.48 percent on April 4. Fannie Mae forecasters said last month they expect mortgage rates to come down to 6.2 percent by the end of this year and to 6 percent next year.
At 166.5 as of May 9, the MBA’s seasonally adjusted purchase index showed homebuyer demand for mortgages was up 30 percent from a 2025 low of 127.7 registered on Jan. 3. The index was benchmarked at 100 in March 1990. Applications for purchase loans had previously picked up 11 percent during the week ending May 2.

Any challenge to winning over sellers can be overcome through competent conversation that includes, above all, seller participation. Great questions and deep listening enable sellers to make educated choices and have ownership of their goals. Real-world examples with risks and consequences demonstrate value, instill trust and help create a true “partnership” relationship.
The conversation starters below do more than get you started. They are lessons in seller conversion through probing questions, knowledge sharing and mutual decision-making.
1. Know the market. Be the expert. A metaphor will help sellers understand
By the time a shift in the market is noted by the media, it’s old news to the real estate industry. Agents need to be the market analysts, not the media. Let sellers know that you are the holder of the information and can help them leverage real news in real time.
Agent to seller: “When we track a town’s supply and demand, we know when shifts in the market favor the buyer or the seller. A two-month supply of homes in [town] signals a seller’s market. It takesonly two months to empty the shelf. However, changes in supply and demand can swing leverage in the opposite direction. Let’s discuss steps to win in this market.”
For a simple calculation of the month’s supply of inventory, divide the supply (homes for sale) by the current demand (the last 30 days of pending, not closed, sales).
Example: If there are 100 homes for sale, and 50 under contract/pending sales in the last 30 days, it takes two months to empty the shelf. Track every 30 days to see emerging trends.
2. Probing questions lead and guide seller discussions. Neighborhood news helps
Offer your SOI a review of the equity in their neighborhood, quarterly or annually. Meet or drop off a simple “MLS one-liner” of all activity in the area. If it’s simple and on one page, it will be shared with neighbors, becoming a big source of referrals. Follow up with probing “what ifs.”
Agent to seller:
“Everyone benefits from knowing the equity in their neighborhood and where prices are headed. I have a print-out of activity in your area that I’d like to drop off.”
“Hey,have you heard the news about the sales price of 123 Main?”
“Consider me a resource to help guide your future lifestyle plans.”
“If you couldchange anything about your home, what would it be?”
“What’s your long-termgoal for your home: Keep, sell, rent or renovate it to suit a future need?”
3. Is their house ready to sell? Help sellers see their home through buyers’ eyes
Asking sellers about the condition of their home is a delicate task. But because everyone understands what a “model home” looks like, switch up your ask to help them visualize how problem-solving fixes, with you as their guide, can increase the value of their home.
Agent to seller:
“Because there are steps in preparing a home for sale for a return investment, looking at a home through buyers’ eyes provides a clear perspective on whether a house is ready to sell.”
On a scale of 1 to 10, how would you rate your home’s condition? Model Home= 10.Poor Condition= 1.
What would it take for your home to be a 10?
What steps do you need guidance with?
What resources can I provide to help you through the initial process?
4. It’s not your marketing, not your personality, not your price
Losing a competitive listing can leave an agent in the dark. Of course, the seller liked you and your stellar marketing and maybe even your price. Differentiation in a consultative appointment is the key to hireability. To stand out, educate the seller on the three things that pay them a premium. They’ll listen!
Agent to seller: “The most crucial factor in selling a home is the collaboration between seller and agent on three key decisions that pay a seller a premium: pricing, condition and negotiation. While marketing capabilities are standard across the industry, educating a seller to critical choices on pricing, prepping the home, and complex negotiationwhen hearing offers are the benchmarks of a great proposal. Let’s discuss how to avoid leaving money on the table.”
5. Pricing choices that pay a seller a premium (in a 15-second elevator speech)
Providing sellers with critical decisions on goal-targeted pricing and having them choose is the consultative part of a “pre-marketing” process. Educate, don’t advise.
Agent to seller:
“There are 3 ways to price a house for sale — goal-targeted choices with risks and consequences:
Right-pricing, based on comparable sales, adds as much as a 5 percent premium to the sales price
Bidding/auction pricing, somewhat risky, is set low to stir up competition
Retail pricing, with a built-in price cushion in place, encourages lowball offers and a later sale. Which one works for you?”
Educate sellers on the often-misconstrued escalation clause. Not understanding this buyer strategy can leave money on the table. Understanding it can give sellers the upper hand.
Agent to seller: “Without a clear understanding, the escalation clause in an offer can look like a win for the seller, but it’s actually a buyerattempting to buy a home at the lowest price, offering to beat competing offers by an ‘escalated’ amount up to ‘a maximum price’ — the highest the buyer ‘would pay.’ Accepting the escalated offer on its terms is leaving money on the table. A true win for the seller, by the buyer ‘revealing his hand,’is tocounteroffer the buyer’s maximum he would pay, or counter ‘highest and best’ to all competing offers.”
7. The powerful message of the ROI of staging:Help sellers debunk common myths
It’s easy for sellers not to hear the message an unstaged home is sending to buyers. Help sellers separate “myth from reality” to capitalize on staging and sell for a premium.
Agent to seller: “The ROI stats are clear. Staged homes sell higher than unstaged homes. It’s common to question, ‘Why stage?’ because buyers ‘will want to change it’ anyway. Actually, buyers want to immediatelyfall in love with‘their’home, not ‘the seller’s’; have little vision and fewer resources; and can’t translate vacant or unstaged rooms to extra value and more space. Whether DIYor full staging, a home will sell for a premium and with fewer showing days on the market.”
8. Buy before sell? Sell before buy? Provide choices, not answers. Let them decide
It’s not about “what you would do” when the seller asks for advice on this critical timing issue. Answer the question with content; respond as the resource all agents should be.
Agent to seller:
“There is no one universal answer when selling and buying. There are actually five options to consider. It becomes a matter of personal choice. Each comes with consequences. Decide which one works best for you.”
Put your house on the market; sell it with a 60-day Use and Occupancy Agreement, giving you about 120 days or more for a home search and relieving some of the pressure to find a home.
Find the house first; make an offer contingent on selling your home — an ideal option for you, except for the weak negotiating position.
Put your house on the market; close, then find temporary housing. It’s a short-term option to decide your next move and the best negotiating position, but it’s inconvenient to move twice.
Secure a bridge loan to buy a home with equity from your existing home; repay it with proceeds from the sale of your house, also relieving pressure when buying before selling.
Keep your house, and rent it as part of an investment plan. I can guide you on that.
9. Carpe diem! Help sellers seize the deal. They decide how offers are heard
Too often, Realtors buy into “this is how we do it” when hearing offers. But negotiating isn’t a procedure. It’s a strategy based on what is on the table, with varying sets of buyer circumstances and seller goals.
Stop. Look. Listen. Then consult with the seller on the ways a negotiation can be handled. The seller decides the when and the how.
Agent to seller: “When an open house is swarming with potential buyers, what happens next can prompt sellers on when to accept a deal. Although there are commonly accepted ways of hearing offers in most markets, it comes down to choice. Some sellers in some scenarios wait to respond to an offer untilan artificial deadline is set to amass other offers, while some sellers in other scenarios seriously considerthe early offer, submitted to wow the seller, demonstrate urgency and align fast action to buyer commitment. Negotiating guidelines are just that, meant to help, but skilled negotiating is brainstorming options despite local practices.”
10. A seller’s wishlist is a clear path to getting it all. Provide buyers a visual
When a seller-agent guides buyer-agents with a seller’s wishlist in a competitive selling environment, it’s a win for both sides, facilitates targeted communication to address seller goals and curates the best offer by the buyer for the seller!
Agent to seller: “When sellers dwell on how to score the best deal among several offers in a seller’s market, they need only to name their terms. As seller agent, I commonly share the seller’s wishlist, in collaboration with the seller, with buyer agents preparing an offer. Here’s a sample of items I can include:”
Highest price with best terms and fewest contingencies
60-day closing with 60-day Use and Occupancy
Appraisal waiver for offers above list with proof of funds for deposit and appraisal gap
Total deposit due on Day 1 after all parties have signed the contract
Limit home inspection to major structural, environmental and mechanical issues
Consider waiving a specific dollar amount toward inspection concessions
Home inspection within three to five days after all parties have signed the contract
Add to contract [example]: chimney, fireplace, flue in As Is Condition.
Add the following personal property items excluded from sale: _____
Sellers will look favorably on a pre-approval from the preferred lender: _____
Provide buyer’s attorney information upon submission of offer.
Winning over sellers is a misnomer. It’s really about earning seller relationships when mastering the art of information communication. Markets change. Even repeat sellers want to know what they may not know.
When coached by a knowledgeable agent, sellers become holders of the information. This seals a bond between seller and agent, leads to effective decision-making, without remorse or regret, and is a platform for referrals.
