https://bit.ly/RASCall Are Buyers Back?! & eXp Fires Back at Compass | Mortgage Rates Drop, Inventory Slips, & Listing Drama Explodes

📉 Mortgage rates just hit a 3-month low—and this time, buyers noticed. We're diving into the latest demand surge, Redfin's update showing a drop in new listings and pending sales, and what it all means for a market caught between affordability and FOMO.

🏗️ Multifamily completions near a 40-year high while single-family supply remains tight, raising questions about housing balance and investor opportunity. Plus, job growth remains solid, keeping the economy steady even as real estate rides the rollercoaster.

🔥 Then we get into the real drama: eXp vs Compass. eXp CEO Glenn Sanford throws shade with: "You can't champion consumers and gatekeep listings." We break down that bold statement and react to key moments from Ricky Carruth's interview with Compass President Rory Golod, where everything from commission lawsuits to culture clashes is on full display.

📚 Plus, we tour a home that literally doubles as a library—The Book House in Columbus, Ohio. With walls lined with vintage novels and secret passages hidden behind bookshelves, this place is what real estate fairytales are made of.

🧠 What You'll Learn in This Episode:

Why buyers are suddenly reentering the market

What falling pending sales really tell us about demand

How multifamily completions might shift rental dynamics

Where Compass and eXp clash on the future of listing access

Why The Book House is the most magical listing we've seen this year
