In this episode of Uncommon Real Estate, Chris sits down with Anna Kilinski—CEO of The Anna K Intown Real Estate Team and Bravo TV’s realtor expert on Buying It Blind. Anna shares how she accidentally became a real estate investor, grew a $140M+ real estate team, and built long-term wealth by doing the basics at a high level—consistently.
They unpack what it really takes to transition from trading time for money to building a portfolio that pays you back, and why "failing fast" and staying in your lane might be the real secrets to success. What You’ll Learn:
- How Anna “accidentally” got started in real estate investing
- Why she’s never sold a single property she’s purchased
- The power of consistency in building a $140M+ team
- How to leverage your insider access as an agent to build wealth
- What agents need to do before they “earn the right to be creative”
- Why proximity, systems, and simple follow-up still win today
- What Anna would tell her younger self—or a new agent feeling stuck
