In this inaugural episode of the Playmakers Podcast, RealScout CEO Andrew Flachner sits down with Gino Blefari, former CEO of HomeServices of America and Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices, for an unfiltered, 45-minute conversation.
Gino opens up about his decision to step down, what’s changed in real estate leadership, and why he believes it’s still a great market for agents—even if it’s “no longer fun” for many at the top.

We also dive into:
– The impact Warren Buffett had on Gino’s career
– His take on the Clear Cooperation Policy (CCP)
– The habits and mindset that fueled his success
– What comes next after decades in leadership

Whether you’re a team leader, brokerage exec, or agent navigating today’s challenges, this episode is packed with hard-earned insight and straight talk.
