What it covers.

The business behind the business, and the person running it. The conversations owners usually only have privately, with someone who is having them too.

  • What your rent roll is really worth
  • Paying people without losing the margin
  • Holding your fee
  • Finding people who stay
  • Getting out of the middle of it
  • What happens when you want out
Michael Nitschke recording

One question. A real answer.

Short enough to finish

No ninety minute rambles. Long enough to answer the question properly and nothing more, so you can get through one on the way to an appraisal.

Built around one thing

Every episode takes a single question an owner is actually asking, and stays on it until there is something you can use.

From people who have done it

Owners who have solved it, and the accountants, lawyers and brokers who see the same problems from the other side.

Michael Nitschke

Who's asking.

I'm Michael Nitschke. I'm not a coach who used to run an agency. I'm running one now, and I'm still selling in it.

  • Took over the family agency at 30 with six weeks of cash and millions in hidden debt
  • Rebuilt it to profitable within three years, without outside investment
  • Still the principal, still listing and selling in the Adelaide Hills
  • Author of Leading Out of Loss, about building under pressure
  • Each episode I ask someone who knows the thing I need to work out next
