328: Realtor Q&A: You Asked, We Answered
Description
Sometimes you just need another agent to say what everyone else is thinking. In this Q&A episode, Katy and Alissa are answering the real-life, in-the-trenches questions Realtors are navigating every single day. We're talking client expectations, boundaries, broker advice that doesn't make sense, and what actually works in today's market.
When y'all send questions to our inbox, you never disappoint. And this batch covers everything from inspections to communication issues to luxury listings to motherhood to what we'd do if we didn't work in real estate. It's honest, funny, and full of practical advice you can use immediately.
Here's what we chat about in this episode:

Should Realtors go to inspections (and why brokers sometimes say not to)

What to do when clients break agreements or try to cut you out

The triggers we use to stay on top of communication
