Ep. 7: The Real Estate Mailbag: "Like Four Markets in Two Years" with Mike Grayson, Kendra Nitz and Lynn Smith

On this episode of The Real Estate Mailbag presented by Wagon Wheel Title, our hosts and distinguished guests explore what it's been like to be a relatively new real estate agent (less than 5 years) navigating what one panelist describes as four different markets in just the last 2 years alone!   Our panelists for this episode are Mike Grayson, senior associate broker with Tyler York Real Estate Brokers, LLC,  Lynn Smith, affiliate broker with Compass, and Kendra Nitz, affiliate broker and Director of Operations for Re/Max Homes and Estates, Lipman Group.   These agents are true real estate rockstars, recommended to the podcast by top brokers in Nashville for being shining examples of agents who achieved tremendous success quickly in their real estate careers.  In fact, one panelist tells the story of how he had his first closing all of two weeks after completing his licensing.  These agents have been able to maintain and scale their early successes, even as the overall real estate market has become much more challenging as a result, mostly, of interest rates that have risen more quickly and more steeply than at any other juncture in history, eclipsing 8% in late October '23.   So, join us for a fascinating discussion about what it takes to succeed in the current real estate industry, what caused each of our distinguished panelists to take the plunge, as well as to hear invaluable insights and advice that is truly priceless for anyone struggling to navigate the current real estate market.  As always, there is no shortage of candor, humor, humility, and words of encouragement grounded in real life lessons and experiences.   And as always, we promise you'll learn something new, and laugh at least a time or two!
