May in Indianapolis means one thing: speed. From Gasoline Alley to the roar of the straightaway, IndyCar drivers bring a level of preparation, precision, and pressure performance that defines greatness. At Lockstep Realty, brokered by eXp Realty, we see that same mindset in our agents—especially during the spring market.

Real estate in Indy isn’t for the unprepared. Just like race day, there are no do-overs when the lights go green. You either show up ready or get left in the dust.

The Green Flag Drops in May

For drivers, the Indy 500 is the ultimate proving ground. For REALTORS® in Indianapolis, May is the start of peak season—when inventory spikes, buyers get serious, and sellers demand results. It's our qualifying month, our Carb Day, and our race day all at once.

Lockstep agents prepare all year for this stretch. We’re in the CRM fine-tuning our follow-ups, reviewing comps like lap times, and sharpening negotiation skills like pit crews prep tires. The agents who win in May don’t coast in April. They treat every listing, every client, and every showing as a chance to gain position.

IndyCar Teams and Real Estate Teams Have More in Common Than You Think

A top-tier IndyCar driver doesn’t win alone. They’ve got engineers analyzing data, strategists calling pit stops, and teammates helping them block or push forward.

At Lockstep Realty, we’ve built that same structure.

• Our transaction coordinators are like race engineers—checking every contract detail, timeline, and compliance metric.

• Our leadership acts like a pit crew chief—reviewing strategies, offering real-time support, and anticipating roadblocks.

• Our agents? They’re the drivers. Fast. Focused. Fierce when it counts.

When you join a team brokered by eXp Realty, you don’t just get access to a bigger garage—you get the horsepower of a platform built to scale. From national tools and tech to local accountability, we combine big reach with fast action.

Preparation Wins Races (and Real Estate)

An IndyCar driver doesn’t show up on race day hoping for the best—they’ve already visualized every turn, trained their reflexes, and tested their systems.

Top agents do the same. At Lockstep, we emphasize prep work because the market doesn’t slow down for you to catch up. That means:

• Pre-listing game plans built on data, not guesses

• Social content and follow-up systems running like telemetry

• Offer strategies mapped before showings ever begin

You can’t fake readiness—and you can’t wing a win.

Speed Is Power—If You Know When to Hit the Brakes

IndyCar is as much about restraint as it is about acceleration. Real estate is the same. Our agents know when to push—and when to pause. That might mean holding back an offer until timing is right or slowing down a client who's rushing toward buyer’s remorse.

We don’t confuse busy with effective. We help clients make bold moves with precision.

Collaboration Over Competition

At Lockstep Realty, we’ve created a culture where agents help one another level up. The fastest driver in a team doesn’t hoard the secrets—they raise the whole crew. That’s how you build a dynasty.

Through shared systems, honest feedback, and leadership from active producers, our agents grow together. We’re not just trying to “beat the field.” We’re building something sustainable—and we’re doing it as a team.

How eXp Realty Powers the Pit Lane

eXp Realty’s platform gives us the flexibility and scale to move fast without breaking down:

• National referral networks and collaboration channels

• Real-time market data from coast to coast

• Tech tools that sync like telemetry

• Revenue-sharing and mentorship models that reward team growth

Lockstep uses that horsepower to build faster lanes for our agents—and smoother rides for our clients.
