How Australia’s largest independent network is redefining agent success, with Little Real Estate’s Anne Crarey and Philip Eldret

In this episode of the REB Business Empowerment Showcase, Little Real Estate’s Anne Crarey and Philip Eldret join host Liam Garman to unpack the benefits of operating as Australia’s largest privately owned real estate agency – and how their innovative model is helping agents thrive in today’s market.

Anne and Philip open the discussion by sharing how being independent – with 12 offices across three states – gives Little Real Estate the agility and opportunity that franchise models often lack. They delve into the power of career progression, consistency, and streamlined processes that empower agents without the pressure of selling principles.

Philip highlights the value of leveraging a rent roll to generate consistent listing opportunities, creating a dependable revenue base for agents and increasing their profile in local markets.

The conversation then turns to Little’s “One Team” approach, where collaboration between sales, property services, and support teams leads to better outcomes for clients and more cohesive operations internally.

Anne and Philip also spotlight Little’s commitment to training and support – from onboarding and coaching to tech tools, marketing strategies, and initiatives like "Brunch and Learn" – all designed to create a thriving agent ecosystem.

Finally, the pair explore how Little’s industry-leading rent roll referral program offers agents a secondary income stream, allowing them to build long-term value alongside their sales performance.

Tune in for a deep dive into culture, systems, and practical frameworks that support success in modern real estate.
