The Simple Psychology of Real Estate Recruiting (Second Edition) Now Available

by | Mar 16, 2026

I’m excited to announce the release of the second edition of our e-book, The Simple Psychology of Real Estate Recruiting. 

Over the past several years, we’ve had the opportunity to work with brokerage leaders across the country who are all trying to solve the same problem:

How to consistently attract and retain talented agents in an increasingly competitive market.

It’s become very clear that recruiting is not primarily a script problem or a marketing problem.

It’s a psychological problem.

In this updated edition, we’ve taken the psychological principles from the original book (our most downloaded resource ever) and turned them into a repeatable recruiting system that leaders can apply immediately.

The book introduces practical frameworks for building trust, lowering a candidate’s fear of change, diagnosing the real reasons agents consider moving, and guiding conversations that turn acquaintances into hires.

If you’re responsible for growing an office or building a recruiting culture, this is an essential handbook for becoming a trusted architect of their career growth.
