Diane Brennan with Coldwell Banker Realty and Tom Ross with Bay Equity Home Loans talk in depth about a real estate market that should be looked at with a different perspective. It is slowing down, but that should not be looked at as an alarm of things to come. We have experienced some unprecedented growth and the easing off of that does not necessarily mean that there are signs of trouble.

Thanks of course to Tina Tamboer of the Cromford Report for a lot of the data included in the presentation! We'll dive into where things are changing, and what to expect in the near future regarding interest rates.

The crew gets into some interesting things Diane learned on TikTok, including how to repair bendy carrots!

It is exhausting keeping up with trends! So we looked to Designer Maria Killam who we love here on the show.

Did you know the color grey has been out for over three years? What?!?! Designer Maria Killam says it was over even before the pandemic!! She says buying grey is over!! We'll talk about where grey is being used primarily, what's trending now, and some specific items and colors to buy to contrast it.

She says the good news is that these tones will warm up all the grey you have!!

We also talk to Comedienne August O'Neal! Wild, hilarious, and a fan of all of us. I talk to her and Diva about how they got started in comedy and we learn a lot about these two funny women. And you must hear the story about Scooby Doo getting in a fight - and why August is no longer in Hollywood! Such a funny story!
