Building Business On Connection ●

In this international episode of the Get Real Estate podcast, we sat down with Andrew Rhatigan, founder of Rhatigan Real Estate and author of the hit newsletter "Shut the Front Door," to unpack what it really means to serve clients well—and why most agents are doing it wrong.

With a background in psychology and a people-first mindset, Andrew brings a refreshingly honest perspective to real estate. From asking the questions clients don’t even know they need to answer, to guiding buyers through major life decisions with empathy and clarity, Andrew’s approach is anything but transactional.

He shares how Ireland’s lifestyle, location, and language make it an appealing home base for global buyers—and how his business has carved out a niche by focusing on deep client relationships, long-term thinking, and just saying what needs to be said (even when it’s uncomfortable).

They also dive into content marketing vs cold calling, European licensing differences, and why sometimes your best deal starts with asking: “What do you really want from life?”
