This week, we take a trip over to the other side of the state to Spokane, Washington, to sit down with Scott Wetzel. Scott is the Owner/President & CEO of Windermere Services Mountain West, and in addition to that runs multiple businesses under the Black Pearl Holdings LLC. 

Often, Spokane is forgotten in the local real estate market conversation. As the states' second biggest city, Scott talks about what is happening in the county and whether it's a good time to buy/sell/invest in Spokane, and also offers advice on becoming a business owner or leader. Give it a listen!
