Wholesaling and Love Letters continue to be two of the hottest topics in real estate. In this episode of Dishin' Dirt I examine the risks that real estate agents have when representing wholesalers or when acting as a wholesaler.  I also examine the impact of the recent Oregon ruling that overturned the prohibition on Love Letters and the risk that agents incur in presenting the letter to sellers.

Finally, I give you a preview of one of the PropTechs that Breakthrough Broker Co-Founder, Eric Sachs, will present in next week's episode.

What would you do if you were injured and told you only had 3% of ever feeling anything below the neck? 

What would you do if you were only 18 at the time and had your whole life change in an instant? Would you walk again? Would you inspire the world, would you write a book, would you be seen by 300 million people in a Youtube video? Would Netflix make a film about you?  
Would you adopt 6 children and foster 19?  Chris Norton not only would, he did. 

Today I bring you one of the most incredible stories I have ever heard. I hope this motivates and inspires you as it did me. 

Listening to Chris will hit many emotions. Watching Seven Yards will make you cry, laugh, cheer but most importantly it will inspire and motivate you.

Chris graciously shared his story with Dishin' Dirt and I am PROUD to be able to share it with you.

THE POWER TO STAND

STAND IN THE FACE OF ADVERSITY. STAND FOR AN IDEA. STAND TO EMPOWER THE WORLD.

This week we examine who has to attend the closing and what do you do if the buyer or seller cannot attend the closing.  One of the good things that came out of Covid was Zoom and the new flexibility this platform provides for closings. If you find yourself in a situation where your buyer or seller cannot attend the closing there are now  so many options for the parties. So check out this week's podcast on all of the options now available.

Also, in As Gary Sees It  I give you half of my Top 10 streaming series that are not Game of Thrones, Breaking Bad or Tiger King!
