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=en Website:https://www.coldwellbanker.com/ca/beverly-hills/agents/sasha-kaplan *More from Paul &amp; 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.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/forwardonerealestate/ Timestamp: 00:00:00 Welcome and Intro 00:00:13 From Modeling to Real Estate 00:01:09 Mentorship and Starting Out 00:02:43 First Deal Breakthrough 00:04:21 Extra Mile Mindset 00:08:03 Landing Developer Clients 00:13:15 Relentless Follow Up Wins 00:19:36 First Developer Listing Lessons 00:20:56 Winning Multiple Offer Deals 00:29:54…","meta_description":"On the Forward One podcast, Sasha Kaplan shares how she transitioned from modeling to real estate at 21 in Los Angeles, initially misunderstanding commiss…","key_points":[],"chapters":[],"topics":[],"duration_seconds":4677,"processing_state":"not_requested","actions":[{"name":"request_transcript","method":"POST","url":"https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/forward-one-podcast-7242978/episodes/market-masterclass-sasha-kaplan-s-blueprint-for-real-estate-success-and-growth/transcription-requests","description":"Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode."},{"name":"read_markdown","method":"GET","url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/forward-one-podcast-7242978/market-masterclass-sasha-kaplan-s-blueprint-for-real-estate-success-and-growth.md","description":"Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource."}]}}
