In this episode of One Goat and The Property Guys, the boys sit down with Anna-Kate to unpack her journey from 17 years working in the “side saddle” of real estate to stepping out as a lead agent in her own right.

After building years of experience behind the scenes, Anna-Kate hit the ground running with a massive first year as a lead agent. But as she explains, it was never just about working hard. It was about being fast, paying attention to the details, genuinely caring about clients, and building the systems that allow a business to grow without losing sight of family.

This episode dives into the realities of real estate success, the importance of discipline over talent, why overnight success is rarely overnight, and why playing the long game matters more than chasing quick wins.
