What would make a seasoned real estate agent say no to sellers who want to hire them to sell a property? Join Scott Harris, in this eye-opening episode of The Pursuit of Home as he recounts some of the most bizarre and challenging experiences he’s encountered over two decades in real estate. From a bird that wouldn't leave him alone to a home filled to the brim with clutter, discover why sometimes an agent simply has to walk away. It's about much more than just the condition of the property—it can also be the seller's attitude and unrealistic pricing expectations that become the ultimate deal-breakers.
But it's not all weird and wacky tales. Scott also shares how agents manage difficult transactions and personalities, and bumps in the road you’ll want to avoid, too. These insights can save you time, money, and stress. This episode is packed with real-life stories and practical advice that you won’t find on any TV show or glossy magazine. So, tune in for a candid, entertaining, and educational conversation about the true highs and lows of buying and selling homes.

What if you realize you need to step back in the middle of your search for some reason? To save a little more money, to deal with something personal, to navigate the market itself? How would you feel? How much would you lean on your real estate agent? To answer these questions, we spoke with a real estate agent from Westchester, Julie Alcee, someone who got very use to putting people in time out in her former life—when she was a schoolteacher!
On this episode, we talk about the emotional side of navigating some of the toughest parts of being a first-time buyer, especially when you hear news you don't want to hear.

What if there's a completely different way to get to the closing table, with a deal and a house you love? Today's buyer has a superpower that does just that: Relationship-building.

Do you buy a home for all the practical reasons, or do you go with your gut? Is buying based on your feelings a luxury reserved for only some? Or is all the discussion of the practical and rational just giving yourself ammunition to make the emotional decision you are going to make anyway? Let's put it another way. How do you figure out what you want? Today's buyer gives us great tools to do just that as she and her husband talk about the home they bought in New York.
And since it's all about making room to get those answers, we bring in legendary therapists Dr. Laurie and Frank Zellinger, who are longtime therapists and best-selling authors based in Long Island about their experience working with their clients and talking about their clients' real estate journeys in the context of talk therapy. You'll be surprised to hear their feedback when we try to nail down what the best agents in Long Island are doing—or not doing. Frankly, it makes me even more convinced of the importance of our podcast!
Filmed at Brown Harris Stevens’ Studio 1873 and online via Openreel. The Pursuit of Home is part of the Mastery of Real Estate (MORE) Network.
