Let’s be real—real estate isn’t what it used to be. Gone are the days of flipping through MLS books and faxing blurry contracts (remember when faxes would fade?!). Now, we’re talking AI-powered searches, voice-activated MLS tools, and game-changing technology that’s transforming the way we do business.

In this episode of Real Estate Real World, I sat down with Dave Howe, CEO of MetroList, to chat about:

✅ How MLS has evolved from books to AI-driven search

✅ Why artificial intelligence is the next big thing for real estate

✅ How agents can adapt, stay ahead, and thrive in today’s fast-changing market

✅ The real impact of lawsuits & industry shifts—and how to navigate them

We covered a LOT, including why embracing change is the secret to long-term success. If you’re still on the fence about AI or wondering where MLS technology is headed, this convo is a MUST-listen.
