If These Walls Could Talk episodes

  • Wired and Overwhelmed

    Buckle up for a wild ride on this episode of If These Walls Could Talk! The ladies are tackling the chaos plaguing the real estate and finance industries, starting with the very real and very frustrating issue of major banks like Wells Fargo and Bank of America causing huge wire transfer delays. The reasoning? They're simply "overwhelmed".


    The conversation then moves to the ever-changing housing market. While some markets are still balanced, others like DFW have flipped to a buyer's market. They reveal a shocking new trend of abstract judgments, credit card bills, and tax liens popping up on sellers' properties.


    But it wouldn't be an ITWCT episode without some truly bizarre real estate listings. They discuss a Wisconsin house listed for $2.1 million that features a full-sized taxidermy elephant, giraffe, and a lion. And that's before they even get to the creepy Eureka, California listing where the owner photoshopped himself into all the photos and mentions a lawsuit!


    The episode wraps up with a discussion on the importance of content creation and collaboration for realtors, and hilarious stories of shocking unprofessionalism and drama in the industry. Get ready for some unfiltered talk and unbelievable stories!
