Phil Tarrant and Tom Panos discuss the hard-hitting topics relevant to real estate that others might shy away from.

With the recent Optus hack and buyers’ concerns about cyber threats, Tom and Phil talk about what buyers can do to protect themselves, diving into whether you should give your personal information when you go to an open house and what this data breach means for future customers.

The duo then talk about buyers’ obsessions with property prices as if it were the stock market, reminding purchasers that there is no recommended retail price in real estate; if you are in it for the long haul, the purchase price becomes irrelevant.
