The Power & Perils of Real Estate Partnerships Part 2: When Good Things Go Bad
In this episode of re•flections, we’re diving into the messy side of real estate partnerships—because let’s face it, not all partnerships are built to last. When Good Things Go Bad explores how once-promising collaborations can go sideways, offering essential lessons for agents who want to avoid the same fate.
We start with realtors Andrew Holenchuk and Jeff Meyer, who share the rise and fall of their partnership, candidly revealing what went wrong. Next, Julia Hoang, a Computer Science research assistant, uses AI to analyze interviews from agents whose partnerships crashed. She highlights the common pitfalls, from workload imbalances to misaligned values, showing us exactly where things tend to fall apart.
But it’s not all bad news! We wrap up with realtors Tony Joe and Bonnie Leard, who—despite a successful seven-year partnership—decided to amicably part ways. Their story shows that you can split without the drama, and even maintain respect and friendship.
Packed with real-world stories and expert analysis, this episode will help you navigate the ups and downs of partnerships with confidence. Whether you’re in a partnership or thinking about starting one, you’ll leave with a fresh perspective on what can go wrong—and how to make sure it doesn’t.
