| 8/24/26 | Should Your Buyers Wait for Rates to Drop? Paul Morris Has the Answer! | Paul Morris has the question your buyers are thinking: Should we wait for rates to come down? Right now, rates are at a one-year high, and the Fed is likely to raise them again soon. As an agent, it’s crucial to be informed and provide your clients with the right answers. In this episode of the Forward One podcast, Paul breaks down the numbers you can't afford to miss, including the current 30-year fixed rate and the median home price. With pending sales down 5.4%, buyers are hesitating, and it’s essential to understand why. Paul shares insights on how to approach clients who are considering waiting for lower rates and why that might not be the best strategy. Instead of competing on predictions, focus on the facts and simple math to show your value as an agent. Paul also discusses the importance of knowing your local market numbers, which can set you apart from the competition. By pulling key metrics like active inventory and median days on market, you can provide your clients with the most relevant information. Remember, the house is the decision, and the rate is just a condition. If you’re ready to elevate your real estate game, tune in and learn how to master your market.

| 8/10/26 |  NIGHTMARE SCENARIO: The End of Affordable Housing? Survival Tips for Agents! | Paul Mark Morris opens the Forward One podcast with a “waiting market” thesis as national median home prices hit a record $440,600 while pending home sales fell 5.4% in June across all regions. He reviews key data: existing sales running near 4 million annually, inventory at 1.56 million (4.6 months’ supply), first-time buyers at 33%, and the 30-year fixed rate at 6.58% (second weekly increase), with daily quotes briefly touching 6.85%. He explains how war-related oil spikes and inflation pressures are moving the 10-year Treasury and mortgage rates, and previews a Fed meeting where a hike is a live possibility. He frames the market as a standoff, not a crash, offers rate/payment examples, urges agents to use local MLS metrics, and provides three client conversation frameworks for buyers, sellers, and crash fears, noting low distressed sales and only 2% of mortgaged homes underwater.*More from Paul*Paul: https://www.instagram.com/paulmarkmorris/Forward One Media: https://www.instagram.com/forwardonemedia/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@forwardonepodcast*Presented by Forward One Real Estate*https://www.,forwardone.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/forwardonerealestate/Timestamps00:00:00 Buyers Are Waiting00:00:47 This Week’s Market Setup00:01:51 Key Numbers Dashboard00:04:55 Mortgage Rates Explained00:09:33 The Standoff Opportunity00:14:53 Why Rates Moved00:18:47 Fed Meeting Watch00:23:09 Local Metrics That Matter00:27:41 Client Conversation Frameworks00:36:32 Crash Talk With Data00:41:08 Wrap Up And Next Week | 42m 14s | ||||||
| 8/3/26 |  BUILDING YOUR LEGACY: How to Succeed by Ignoring Conventional Success Metrics! | In this Forward One podcast, Jeffrey Saad joins hosts Paul and Josh to discuss managing major career pivots—from restaurants to real estate—by prioritizing authenticity, presence, and enjoyment of the day-to-day over fixation on outcomes. Saad describes his upcoming book with Steve Shull, The Reduction, built around doing less to live better, clarifying one’s story, focusing on the circle of control, stopping “storytelling,” and creating a personal constitution to guide decisions. He emphasizes responsibility, gratitude, open-mindedness, sustainable work habits, and boundaries, including reducing time with toxic people. The conversation also covers practical real estate principles—competing on value, telling clients the truth, asking better questions, consistency, and systematic client follow-up—ending with a rapid-fire round on Saad’s values, fears, and purpose.*Jeffrey Saad*Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/chefjeffreylsaad/ Website: https://www.compass.com/agents/jeffrey-saad/ *More from Paul & Josh*Paul: https://www.instagram.com/paulmarkmorris/Josh: https://www.instagram.com/spitzenjosh/Forward One Media: https://www.instagram.com/forwardonemedia/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@forwardonepodcast *Presented by Forward One Real Estate*https://www.,forwardone.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/forwardonerealestate/Timestamps:00:00:00 Podcast Welcome00:00:41 Motorcycle Safety Talk00:02:49 Pivoting Careers Authentically00:04:43 Process Over Outcomes00:06:02 Passion Meets Practicality00:10:59 Finding Your Real Passion00:12:15 Consistency Through Authenticity00:17:43 Doing Less Better00:19:03 Open Mind Learning00:24:43 Circle of Control00:27:52 Tools for Moving Forward00:29:08 Discovering Your True Self00:32:01 Joy Starts Within00:32:40 Give First Get More00:33:41 Value Creation Pays00:35:10 Own Your Choices00:37:16 Respond Dont React00:38:57 Cut Toxic Ties00:41:44 Reduce to Essence00:48:28 Flow State Focus00:49:25 Personal Constitution00:51:07 Book and Reduction Method00:57:41 Quiet Time Truth01:00:21 Speak Truth Kindly01:02:03 Price Beats Marketing01:02:13 Hard Truth Listing Reset01:03:50 Commission Objections01:04:58 Value Over Price01:07:28 Local Expert Myth01:09:56 No Trash Talking01:13:39 Ask Dont Sell01:15:39 Walking Away Standards01:21:09 Closing Gifts Connection01:23:01 CRM Daily System01:25:00 Consistency Not Personal01:27:07 Fire Round Finale | 1h 31m 40s | ||||||
| 7/27/26 |  STRATEGIC MOVES: Why The Top Realty Experts Are Studying Rod Watson's Blueprint To Success! | In this Forward One podcast episode, hosts Paul Mark Morris and Josh Spitzen interview real estate broker Rod Watson about how an infomercial course launched his career while he was coaching college basketball, leading him to study real estate terminology and eventually leave coaching and later a six-figure job at Porsche to build a family business. Watson explains starting as an investor, then getting licensed and building expertise during the 2007–2008 short sale/REO era, where he learned patience, negotiation, and title complexity, often waiting 9–12 months to close. He describes generating business through letter writing to a car-sales client base, doing 18–20 annual deals in Texas, and later leading Bank of America’s cooperative short sale work in Southern California. Watson shares his current boutique brokerage, service-first approach, niche in sports/entertainment clients, expansion plans in downtown San Diego, database-focused AI assistant “Ace,” and routines and principles centered on family, health, impact, and playing the long game.* Rod Watson*Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/rodwatson23/ Website: https://www.zillow.com/profile/RodWatson *More from Paul & Josh*Paul: https://www.instagram.com/paulmarkmorris/Josh: https://www.instagram.com/spitzenjosh/Forward One Media: https://www.instagram.com/forwardonemedia/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@forwardonepodcast *Presented by Forward One Real Estate*https://www.,forwardone.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/forwardonerealestate/Timestamps:00:00:00 Welcome and Introductions00:00:41 Infomercial Spark00:02:57 From Coaching to License00:03:08 Investing in Texas00:04:26 Short Sales Crash Era00:05:10 Lessons from Distress Deals00:09:02 Lead Generation Playbook00:15:16 Long Game Client Story00:17:30 Modern Buyer Expectations00:20:53 Boutique Brokerage Today00:22:33 Going the Extra Mile00:26:57 LA San Diego Strategy00:29:19 Long Game Leadership00:30:25 AI Assistant Ace00:32:21 Automating Database Follow Up00:33:22 Family Legacy Vision00:37:07 Daily Routine Discipline00:39:08 Protecting Your Time00:42:16 Riches In Niches00:44:29 Superpower Strategy00:51:53 Patience And Long Game00:54:08 Fire Round Finale | 57m 16s | ||||||
| 7/20/26 |  CRACKING THE CODE: Social Media Strategies from a Real Estate Powerhouse! | In this Forward One podcast episode, realtor Alyssa Barajas shares how she shifted from studying to be a physician’s assistant to real estate seven years ago after her husband encouraged her to get licensed and list his flipped properties. She explains growing into a high-producing solo agent averaging about 25 transactions per year and why hiring an assistant (Danielle) and later adding an agent (Jasmine) helped her create systems, organize her CRM, and restore balance. Barajas discusses leveraging people and processes, using Follow Up Boss, and the importance of consistent follow-up and managing client expectations when delegating tasks. She outlines her social media strategy—posting 2–3 times daily across platforms with educational, sales, and personal content—plus vendor-collaboration videos for learning and referrals, and she emphasizes authenticity, resources, ongoing learning, and a long-term goal of building rental-property income.*Alyssa Barajas *Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/alyssambarajas/ Website: https://teamcirca.com/agent/alyssa-barajas *More from Paul & Josh*Paul: https://www.instagram.com/paulmarkmorris/Josh: https://www.instagram.com/spitzenjosh/Forward One Media: https://www.instagram.com/forwardonemedia/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@forwardonepodcast *Presented by Forward One Real Estate*https://www.,forwardone.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/forwardonerealestate/Timestamp:00:00:00 Meet Alyssa Barajas00:00:18 From Medicine to Real Estate00:02:15 Scaling to 25 Deals00:03:30 Hiring an Assistant00:06:23 Systems and CRM Setup00:10:04 Delegation and Standards00:15:59 Vendor Videos for Referrals00:20:45 Social Media Content Plan00:23:42 Posting Cadence and Lead Split00:25:51 No Prospecting Needed00:26:41 DIY Media Workflow00:28:36 Gear Apps and AI Editing00:29:59 Authenticity Beats Production00:32:30 Scheduling Posting Strategy00:35:06 Content vs Lead Gen Debate00:38:19 Algorithm Shifts and Discovery00:40:35 Search AI and Local Visibility00:45:16 Learning Rooms and Mentors00:47:10 Goals Mentorship Script00:49:48 Rapid Fire Closing | 51m 48s | ||||||
| 7/6/26 |  AGAINST ALL ODDS: Daryl Owen's Journey to Real Estate Dominance! | Forward One podcast hosts Paul Mark Morris and Josh Spitzen reunite with realtor and leader Daryl Owen, who describes getting licensed at 19 while running a Papa John’s, buying an early rental, and adopting system-driven sales habits. After a severe head trauma at 20, he outworked limitations by hand-dialing 500 cold calls a day in a suit, learning a buyer-heavy model, and using simple lead magnets like PennySaver ads to sell homes and small multifamily deals. He shares how a mindset shift led to consistent production, why he left a successful Century 21 office to pursue leverage and ownership, and how he built Nationwide Real Estate to 1,000 agents across nine locations with franchise-style economics. The conversation contrasts brokerage vs. team value, emphasizes CRM-driven follow-up and off-market databases, outlines his 18-person 50/50 team model built from Ben Kinney systems, and ends with a rapid-fire on ownership, peace, childhood memories, and insecurities. *Daryl Owen*Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/darylrowen/ Website: https://www.zillow.com/profile/Daryl%20Owen *More from Paul & Josh*Paul: https://www.instagram.com/paulmarkmorris/Josh: https://www.instagram.com/spitzenjosh/Forward One Media: https://www.instagram.com/forwardonemedia/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@forwardonepodcast *Presented by Forward One Real Estate*https://www.,forwardone.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/forwardonerealestate/Timestamp:00:00:00 Podcast Welcome00:00:29 From Pizza to Realtor00:02:03 Systems Over Sales00:04:56 Building Nationwide00:05:34 Trauma and Cold Calls00:08:52 First Deals Breakthrough00:11:43 PennySaver Lead Magnet00:14:04 Process and Numbers00:16:02 Burnout and Reset00:20:49 Old School Execution00:25:10 Team Dialing Scripts00:27:53 Off Market Advantage00:29:11 Building Off Market Lists00:29:32 Targeting Stale Listings00:30:58 Top Agent Follow Up00:34:45 CRM and AI Automation00:37:18 Team Hiring Standards00:42:15 Team Model vs Brokerage00:50:22 Better Brokerage Blueprint00:53:14 Fire Round Reflections00:59:00 Final Peak Message | 59m 34s | ||||||

| 6/29/26 |  MARKET MASTERCLASS: Sasha Kaplan's Blueprint for Real Estate Success and Growth! | On the Forward One podcast, Sasha Kaplan shares how she transitioned from modeling to real estate at 21 in Los Angeles, initially misunderstanding commission-based work and then building her career through mentorship from Josie Benjamin. She describes landing her first deal by adding simple value at an open house, working through COVID by continuing to show up, and starting with leases due to her peer group’s buying patterns. Kaplan explains how she grew a developer-driven business (about 60% new construction) by relentlessly pursuing opportunities, underwriting deals, targeted prospecting, and insisting on getting the listing when she brings a teardown. She details winning a key developer relationship after nine months of persistence, record-breaking Sherman Oaks transactions, the importance of befriending listing agents, pricing honestly, managing expectations, and playing the long game, then discusses goals, routines, and a brief fire-round.*Sasha Kaplan*Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/sashabkaplan/?hl=enWebsite:https://www.coldwellbanker.com/ca/beverly-hills/agents/sasha-kaplan*More from Paul & Josh*Paul: https://www.instagram.com/paulmarkmorris/Josh: https://www.instagram.com/spitzenjosh/Forward One Media: https://www.instagram.com/forwardonemedia/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@forwardonepodcast *Presented by Forward One Real Estate*https://www.,forwardone.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/forwardonerealestate/Timestamp:00:00:00 Welcome and Intro00:00:13 From Modeling to Real Estate00:01:09 Mentorship and Starting Out00:02:43 First Deal Breakthrough00:04:21 Extra Mile Mindset00:08:03 Landing Developer Clients00:13:15 Relentless Follow Up Wins00:19:36 First Developer Listing Lessons00:20:56 Winning Multiple Offer Deals00:29:54 New Construction Business Model00:31:53 Pricing Honesty and Trust00:33:57 Securing the Listing Agreement00:38:30 Walk Away With Confidence00:42:28 Developers Vs Emotional Buyers00:43:38 Building The Other 40%00:45:04 CRM And Personal Touches00:49:43 Breezy And Buildable Reports00:51:55 Daily Prospecting Routine00:53:20 Goals Teams And Growth00:54:45 Manifestation And Goal Setting00:59:57 How To Vet A Deal01:07:24 Underwriting X Y Z01:11:43 Purposeful Value Creation01:13:58 Fire Round And Closing | 1h 17m 57s | ||||||
