Jay Pitts Show - (RE)source

On this week of the Jay Pitts Show, we’re kicking things off with a rant about UofL football after the Cardinals suffered a tough 30–27 loss to Wake Forest last weekend.

Then we’re diving into a debate happening in the real estate world: should Realtors start charging for showings and offering other services à la carte? We share our thoughts on where the industry could be headed, what clients should actually be paying for, and why the way agents carry themselves online matters more than ever.

Finally, we break down what’s happening with mortgage rates and discuss how the economy, government policy, and the broader political environment can influence where rates go next—and what all of it means for buyers, sellers, and Realtors trying to navigate today’s market.

The Lake Forest real estate market remained competitive in August 2026, with limited inventory and some extremely fast movement among the homes finding buyers.

This month’s numbers show a market with relatively few properties available, but a wide range of price points. And while some active homes have been sitting longer, the properties that sold or went pending moved almost immediately.

The Oldham County real estate market remained active in August 2026, with a healthy amount of inventory available and continued activity from buyers.

One of the biggest things that stands out this month is the difference between homes that successfully closed and the properties that are still sitting on the market. Closed homes moved significantly faster, showing that buyers are still willing to act when they see the right combination of price, condition, and value.

The Jeffersontown real estate market remained active in August 2026, with plenty of inventory available for buyers and continued sales activity throughout the area.

The numbers show an interesting divide in the market: homes that are attracting buyers are moving relatively quickly, while properties that struggle to find the right buyer are spending significantly longer on the market.

The St. Matthews real estate market remained active in August 2026, with a large number of homes available for buyers but relatively little movement into the closed, pending, or expired categories during the period reflected in this report.  The biggest story this month is inventory. More than 100 homes were actively listed, giving buyers plenty of options and putting added pressure on sellers to price and present their homes competitively.

The Lake Forest real estate market remained active in July 2026, with limited inventory, quick movement on well-priced homes, and some notable differences between successful sales and listings that failed to connect with buyers.

The biggest takeaway this month is that buyers are still willing to move quickly when they see value. At the same time, higher-priced homes can require more patience and a more targeted strategy.

This week, we’re kicking things off with another round of Buy, Sell, or Hold, where we put some bold real estate claims to the test. Did 71% of Realtors really not sell a single home in 2025? And is real estate actually overrated and a terrible way to make money? We’re buying, selling, or holding these takes and breaking down what the numbers really mean for agents and the industry.

Then, we look at the departure from—and return to—seasonality in real estate. After several unusual years in the housing market, are the traditional rhythms of busy and slow seasons finally coming back?

And with football season around the corner, we finish things off with a much more important debate: our Mount Rushmore of tailgating foods. Wings? Chili? Burgers? Dips? We’re picking the four foods that deserve a permanent spot in the tailgating hall of fame.

Real estate hot takes, housing market trends, and questionable food opinions—this episode has a little bit of everything.

The Oldham County real estate market remained active throughout July 2026, with strong buyer activity, a healthy level of inventory, and a noticeable difference between homes that sold quickly and homes that stayed on the market much longer.

The July numbers point to a market that is still competitive, but more balanced than it was a few years ago. Buyers have more choices, which means pricing and presentation matter more than ever for sellers.
