In addition to being a highly successful real estate agent, Ed Stulak has made a name for himself as a powerhouse social media marketing master. Since the beginning of the year, he's closed 113 transactions primarily sourced from Instagram. As part of our Real Estate Leaders series, we ask Ed for his opinions on where the real estate market is headed, how agents should be adapting to its changes, what causes so many agents to fail so quickly, and what can be done to slow the bleeding.
