Reflecting on 2025 as a year of transformation rather than production, they share how shifting focus from transactions to relationships has changed the way they approach real estate, leadership, and client connections.

They explore the importance of reconnecting with past clients, moving away from transactional thinking, and building a business rooted in service, authenticity, and trust.

The conversation also touches on the role of faith, managing stress in a high-pressure industry, and the internal dialogue we often overlook—highlighting the importance of learning to “coach yourself” with the same encouragement you give others.

This episode is both practical and reflective, offering insight for real estate professionals, entrepreneurs, and anyone seeking more purpose, clarity, and fulfillment in their work.

We dive into down payment assistance programs and clear up one of the biggest misconceptions in the industry—there are absolutely no dumb questions when it comes to buying a home. Annie shares how asking the right questions can open doors that many buyers don’t even realize are available.

Her story is one you don’t want to miss—becoming a homeowner at just 18, experiencing loss during the 2008 Financial Crisis, and rebuilding her portfolio into multiple properties, including short-term rentals like Airbnb.

Beyond real estate, Annie is deeply involved in giving back through Rebuilding Together Southern Nevada, helping seniors, veterans, and individuals in need by providing critical home repairs at no cost—restoring safety and dignity to homeowners in the community.

We also highlight an upcoming event with the Women’s Council, happening April 18 at Palace Station, themed Midnight in Milan, bringing together two powerful communities for a meaningful cause.
