In this episode of The Unbiased Truth, we talked about leadership, using conversation types, and all the generations in today's workforce. Bryan teaches leaders better ways to communicate with their teams. Nowadays teams can have about 4 different generations in it. Each generation has a different communication style. As a leader, being able to identify those styles and the conversation types of each individual person is an important skill to learn.

In this episode of The Unbiased Truth, we talked about how using social media to highlight other businesses in the community can create a following, and how that can set you apart from others. Jennett showcases fun things/ businesses in the Richmond area on her social media as well as reaches out to her clients past and present with suggestions for a date night or even a pet shop. Being able to make these connections with others is highly impotent to your success, especially when the market is shifting. Attitude is also something that could make or break you. Staying positive and helping others is the way to success!

The rise of interest rates has become a hot topic and has focused agents to step back and think about their next moves when dealing with this market. Not only has it become more skill-based it's also the first cycle of the market to have zero COVID restrictions. Your brand awareness and engagement with others can make or break your business in today's market.

This is our very first #BecauseRealEstate podcast where we are joined by Christy Bacon, Team Leader of Move Virginia and Logan Melton, owner of KBM Home Inspections, where we discuss singular topics of issues facing the real estate industry. We round table the issues surrounding the resurgence of home inspections and repair addendums and negotiations as the market continues to shift. We discuss the challenges that realtors face with the inspection process which includes managing client expectations, writing repair addendums, asking for repairs vs credit, reinspections, and trying to navigate the channels of clients, agents, contractors, and inspectors under tight deadlines and high emotions. As well as what this means for agents moving forward, especially those who have not developed those skills of negotiating repairs. AND we give a small look at our topic for the NEXT episode where our table will be complete with Austin Highfill, Associate Broker, and Team Leader of Eden Properties!
