In this episode, I sit down with Tom Flanagan, Chief Digital Information Officer at RE/MAX Holdings, to explore how real estate professionals can embrace AI while preserving the relationships that have always been at the heart of the business. Drawing on his experience leading technology, data, and AI strategy for one of the world's largest real estate organizations, Tom shares practical insights into AI adoption, trust, workflow automation, and the growing role of citizen developers.

We discuss why AI should be viewed as a tool that amplifies human expertise rather than replacing it, how brokerages can build a culture of responsible innovation, and why automation should free agents to spend more time serving clients. Tom also shares his perspective on the future of AI-powered search, consumer trust, and the importance of combining technology with authentic human connection.

Whether you're an agent, broker, or technology leader, this episode offers practical advice for embracing AI responsibly while building a business that's more productive, more innovative, and ultimately more human.
