Episode 267 of The Smart Agents Podcast features top-producing agent, coach and founder of The Faithful Agent, Garrett Maroon, as he unpacks how he built a thriving, referral-driven real estate business while protecting his time and values

With 11+ years in the industry, more than 600 homes sold and a track record in the top 1% of his market, Garrett has crafted a business that looks very different from the typical grind-it-out real estate model. Instead of cold calling or buying leads, he doubled down on relationships, authenticity and creating a system that supports—not consumes—his life as a husband and father of five.

Garrett’s journey from nearly quitting in his first few months to becoming a leading voice for sustainable success in real estate offers a refreshing perspective on what agents should really be striving for.

In this episode, he shares:

✅ How choosing relationships over cold calling built a stronger, more predictable business

✅ The role timing and patience play in long-term success

✅ Why agents must redefine success beyond sales volume and industry awards

✅ Strategies for protecting your time, setting boundaries, and avoiding burnout

✅ How authenticity and personal values can become your greatest business advantage

If you’re looking for a smarter, more fulfilling way to grow your real estate career, this conversation will hit home.
