This Is Brokering

A conversation with Real Estate investor Manny Trevish about purchasing pre-builds. 

It’s high level, but these conversations will get deeper over the coming months.

Manny Trevish

New(ish) to Canada

New to Brokering

Still full time, at his ‘less stressful’ job, in the ICU ward (thank you Manny)

Join Kyra Wong, vice president of MPP… (Yeah you know me!) for a quality conversation on coverage of your clients butts... and your own. 

Let’s learn to avoid critical mistakes. 

Better Process. 

Better Systems. 

Better Brokering.

Matt Imhoff, left high and dry for no reason. 

Not under a contract, so there wasn’t one to ‘break’. 

All formal and extended notices given to all the correct parties many months in advance. 

And zero suggestions or warnings of any negative consequences or fallout from said parties. 

Just a decision made in a vacuum at the very top of the organization to simply not pay Matt. 

A decision communicated how?

VIA a news article on a website. No email. No phone call. Just no compensation due paid as agreed. 

Wow!

Jill Moellering updates us on Brokering in Alberta where things are rocking and rolling in some areas and not so much in others. 

Some great perspective on relative previous experience as well. 

There was a small tech glitch part way through, apologies for the sudden shift in topics.

The move to a new career. 

The move to a new way of living. 

The key to it all, a great attitude, a sense of humour and an awareness of the value of interpersonal relationships.

Brett House - Scotiabank Deputy Chief Economist goes much deeper than just this simple(ish) question during a broad conversation around demand, supply, government policies, rate conversations, and the negative consequences of bidding wars.

This conversation is time well invested. 

Enjoy!

A conversation with Kate Wybrow about ‘this pandemic life’ as it applies to pressure in life, pressure in the system, and some new ways pressure is being eased when it comes to of all things... appraisals. 

Tune in, great chat!

Aaron Phinney returns (see Ep 25 ‘Daily Routine’) and discusses offices, market stressors, and beards among other critical topics (seriously, great content!)

And no the shirts weren’t planned... well not to Aaron’s knowledge they weren’t.
