YouTube has become an amazing source for training and tips for agents looking to grow their businesses. It’s also a great resource for the agent looking to find others who are providing value in their markets in a way they can model.
The following is a list of agents, coaches, and trainers who provide value or examples of video done well for agents. Tune in, listen and learn.
1. Tom Ferry
Although this list is not in any particular order, it has to start with Tom Ferry. Tom Ferry’s mix of short mindset Monday videos, agent interviews and fundamental agent training videos make his channel one every agent should subscribe to and watch regularly.
2. Christophe Choo
Christophe Choo does a really good job featuring high-quality home tours, answering frequently asked questions and highlighting the area he serves, Beverly Hills. But what he is most famous for are his neighborhood drive-through videos. He has a few of these videos with more than 700,000 views of simple neighborhood driving tours, recorded on his phone.
If you’re looking for a great way to add value in your market with an easy strategy that you can duplicate, make sure you check out Choo’s driving tours.
3. Karin Carr

This is a great channel to check out if you’re looking for strategies to generate leads through YouTube.
4. Raj Qsar
Raj Qsar’s channel includes videos about his team and the team member’s stories, but Qsar really shines presenting high-quality property tours. If you’re looking for an example of how property videos should be done, this is the channel for you.

Craig Veroni’s channel offers a combination of neighborhood overviews, market updates, property tours and posts explaining the cost of living or the best neighborhoods in Vancouver. This channel is a great find for the agent looking to model a local channel after someone who does it extremely well.

Katie Lance’s channel focuses on teaching agents how to utilize social media more effectively. The channel includes playlists with training on Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn and YouTube. This is a great channel for agents looking to take their social media marketing to another level.
8. Tim Smith
Tim Smith’s channel offers a great mix of market updates, professionally produced property videos that involve actors and the lifestyles of the homes, but what really stands out to me is the playlist they use titled Success Stories.
This is a cool twist on just-sold campaigns where they tell the story of how they helped a seller or buyer, and I love the use of actors to visually disrupt what you would normally expect in a just-sold video.
This channel is a great example of how creativity can set your videos apart from your competition.
9. Bryan Casella
Bryan Casella has uploaded hundreds of videos covering everything from cold-calling strategies to agent interviews. These videos have led to more than 193,000 subscribers to his YouTube channel.
Although he migrated to a new channel roughly five months ago, there is so much unique and quality content on this channel — it’s one you will want to check out.
10. Monica Church
Monica Church is a 20-something vlogger who has been extremely successful at building an online audience. She dropped out of college to pursue a digital lifestyle, and she quickly drew a large audience.
Roughly a year ago, she decided to pursue a career in real estate. She began documenting that journey and sharing videos about real estate sales, house tours and FAQs. If you’re looking for an example of how to mix personal and business content, along with documenting your journey as an agent, this is one you will want to keep an eye on.
11. Broke Agent Media
Broke Agent Media’s channel is a mix of content focused on humor, interviews, news, and entertainment for real estate agents. You’ll find the humor you’ve come to expect from Eric Simon (The Broke Agent) along with a variety of podcasts.
One of my favorites is “Between Two Lockboxes,” an entertaining interview-style podcast hosted by Dan Oneil. Other favorites include “The Byron Lazine Podcast,” where Lazine interviews agents, and “The Real Word” hosted by Byron Lazine and Nicole White, where they discuss the top stories and their favorite marketer for the previous week on Inman.
If you’re looking for one channel for real estate-focused entertainment and education, Broke Agent Media is the place to be.
