In this episode, we’re covering some of the biggest conversations happening in real estate right now — and a few that agents really need to pay attention to as we close out the year.
We kick things off with Donald Trump’s proposal for 50-year mortgages and the heated industry debate it’s sparked. Would longer loans boost affordability… or create bigger problems? We break down both sides.
Next, we dive into what rising REALTOR® dues could mean for the future of the industry. Will we see fewer “realtors” and more non-association “real estate agents”? And how might that shift impact consumers?
We also talk about the subtle (and not-so-subtle) signs that the agent on the other side of a transaction might be inexperienced — and how to handle those situations professionally without putting your clients at risk.
Finally, we wrap with a roadmap for agents looking to finish the year strong: the conversations you need to have, the habits to tighten up, and the moves that set you up for a cleaner, more profitable start to next year.
If you’re a real estate pro trying to stay sharp, informed, and ahead of the curve, this is an episode you don’t want to miss.
