Smile! You're On Camera
Like it or not, assume that you're every move is being recorded when you're in public places. That alone should be frightening enough, but we take it to a next level and talk about video and audio surveillance during open houses. If they don't already have them, sellers are adding high tech...

Stay In your Own Lane
Many a Real Estate transaction has been derailed -- or even completely destroyed -- by a participant in the value chain, (agent, lender, escrow, title, etc.), talking about a subject they have no business talking about. Like when an agent discusses elements of a loan program or a rate, or when a...

We Want To Talk To The Person In Charge.
It's so pervasive in the real estate industry that we thought we'd discuss it again, (and differently), this time around. We unboxed it the first time around as "The Silent Treatment. We add some more depth to it. Not communicating should be THE most UNnatural component of our business, yet it...

"Why Are You Making Me Cross-Qual?!"
You might not think it's a "thing," but it definitely can be. The CROSS-QUALIFICATION is when a buyer's preapproval by one lender is reviewed for legitimacy by another lender. This is because the majority of preapprovals from lenders for their buyers are NOT legitimate! (In this case, it's just a...

It's Not Always Escrow's Fault.
More often than any other part of the value chain, escrow seems to be the proverbial "Scapegoat;" It's easy to blame them or toss them under the bus. But that's unfair. And it's unprofessional and it's just not a nice thing to do. In this podcast we Unbox this topic with the help of Marjie…

Recorded LIVE -- Double Ending, (and double dipping!)
In this live episode, we unboxed some of the more touchy subjects of double ending a real estate transaction. We also discussed the activity of representing the buyer AND doing the loan. It's not illegal as long as it's all disclosed. Still, the question is whether we're providing our clients…
