Would you trust a real estate agent more if they were willing to lose a commission to stop you from making the wrong financial decision? In this episode of the Real Estate Excellence Podcast, Tracy Hayes sits down with Marilyn Gilman. Marilyn Gilman is a Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices real estate professional whose background includes decades of exposure to real estate development through her husband's family business before she earned her own license in 2019. After spending 19 years raising her family, Marilyn entered real estate at age 50, earned Rookie of the Year recognition, sold more than $5 million during her first year, and eventually built a team with her daughter Aubrey. Her experience shaped an approach centered on relationships, listening, judgment, negotiation and putting the client's interests before the transaction. Marilyn and Tracy Hayes explore what separates successful agents from people who simply hold a license. Marilyn explains why trust must be earned, why agents need to slow clients down before they make emotional decisions, and why she will sometimes talk someone out of buying real estate. The conversation also covers pricing, appraisals, affordability, insurance, property taxes, investment properties, changing Jacksonville neighborhoods, fiduciary responsibility, working diplomatically with other agents and the importance of following up when a deal appears lost. For Marilyn, the reward comes from helping people make sound decisions while still embracing the negotiation and business side of real estate that keeps her addicted to the hustle.  If this conversation helped you think differently about real estate, relationships and serving clients as a true fiduciary, subscribe to the Real Estate Excellence Podcast, share this episode with an agent who needs to hear it and follow the show for more conversations with top real estate professionals.   HighlightsTop of FormBottom of Form 00:00-18:30 Building a Career Through Life Experience Starting real estate at 50 Working with daughter Aubrey Balancing technology and relationships Returning to work after raising a family Turning life experience into real estate skills 18:30-38:11 Building Trust With Clients Why relationships drive the business Listening before giving advice Talking buyers out of the wrong house What new agents need to understand Professional image and personal safety 38:11-01:00:33 Buyers Negotiations and Pricing Understanding what buyers really want Balancing emotion and financial reality Finding common ground in negotiations Pricing homes for the current market Why every transaction requires a different strategy 01:00:33-01:13:49 The Real Cost of Homeownership Property taxes and portability Insurance costs in Florida Roof age and insurability Looking beyond the mortgage payment Helping buyers understand affordability 01:13:49-01:25:26 Knowing When Not to Buy When renting can be the better choice Avoiding financial overextension Evaluating investment properties carefully Choosing communities around lifestyle needs Comparing older and newer Jacksonville neighborhoods 01:25:26-01:38:01 Fiduciary Advice and the Real Estate Hustle Handling a low appraisal Helping buyers and sellers find common ground Keeping personalities out of negotiations Following up when a deal falls apart Why Marilyn loves the hustle and business of real estate   Quotes: "We're more alike than different in general." – Marilyn Gilman "You need to figure out what you don't want to figure out what you do want." – Marilyn Gilman "I don't want on my watch someone to buy a house they really can't afford." – Marilyn Gilman "I like the helping people, like everybody probably says, but I'm really addicted to the hustle." – Marilyn Gilman   To contact Marilyn Gilman, learn more about her business, and make her a part of your network, make sure to follow her Website, Instagram, Facebook, and LinkedIn.   Connect with Marilyn Gilman!

Tip Tuesday, 4-7 Min Real Estate TipsWe have heard this more than once on listing appointments this year: home sellers being told they are required to pay a buyer's agent fee.​That word matters.​There is a big difference between a required fee and a negotiable strategy. In this Real Estate Tip Tuesday episode, Ryan and I are talking through what home sellers need to understand before making decisions about buyer's agent compensation, how that conversation can affect home buyers, and why the right strategy matters.​Home sellers deserve clear information, not pressure or scare tactics.​In AZ, broker fees and commissions are fully negotiable and not set by law, and home sellers can still choose to offer buyer broker compensation, though it cannot be offered through the MLS.​​#HomeSellingTips #RealEstateTips #ArizonaRealEstate​​Connect with Team EvoAZ: Text ConnectWithKatie to 480-508-9828​Connect with Ryan:Text ConnectWithRyan to 480-508-9828​​Want to browse Phoenix area homes?

A bipartisan bill gaining momentum in Congress could double the capital gains tax exclusion for homeowners who sell their primary residence. The proposal would raise the exclusion from $250,000 to $500,000 for single filers and from $500,000 to $1 million for married couples filing jointly, with future increases tied to inflation.   Supporters say the change could also help unlock housing inventory by removing a potential tax barrier for longtime homeowners who are reluctant to sell. Kathy Fettke explains what's in the More Homes on the Market Act, why the National Association of Realtors is backing it, and what the proposal could mean for homeowners, housing supply, and real estate investors.   Learn more about investing in Real Estate at RealWealth.com.   Source: https://www.realtor.com/news/real-estate-news/capital-gains-tax-exclusion-more-homes-on-the-market-act/

Hi, I'm Connor with Honor - message me here!Five questions Santa Clarita sellers are actually asking in 2026, answered by an agent who only represents sellers.Most of what you read online about valuing your home was written by somebody with a stake in your answer. So was this. The difference is the method is in here, so you can go check the work yourself.What your home is actually worth. Every closed sale is recorded with the county and tracked by the local boards of REALTORS, but reaching that data is the hard part, which is why people accept whatever a website prints out. When an agent hands you a number, the number is not the deliverable. The data behind it is. Put the pin on your own house, expand outward, and find three or four closings inside 180 days that match on bedroom count, square footage, lot size, and year built. If somebody is comparing your single family home to a duplex in another city, ask them why.Sell now or wait for rates. This turns on your plan at the other end far more than on rates. Sellers leaving California are usually buying into less expensive markets, Florida, Tennessee, Idaho, Kentucky, the Carolinas, at a lower price per square foot. If rates come down later, you can refinance.Who pays the buyer's agent. It is negotiable, and it always was. Most Santa Clarita sellers still choose to contribute, some decline, and those deals still get structured.Fire insurance and your buyer's loan. A buyer who cannot get insured cannot fund. More than half the time a home gets listed, the seller's carrier is no longer writing new policies in California. Insurance shopping used to happen in week three of escrow. It has to happen in week one now.What to fix and what to skip. Pricing comes from what has closed. Repairs come from your active competition, the homes buyers tour the same weekend as yours. Walk them in person. You rarely get a renovation back dollar for dollar.Plus what actually happens when you ask AI what your house is worth.Watch the video: https://youtu.be/Niv-K7YKDPALoom version: https://www.loom.com/share/109b1c7b2f1840ce98fe3117044c73afRead the written version: https://santaclaritaopenhouses.com/blog/five-questions-santa-clarita-home-sellers-are-asking-in-2026-pricing-timing-fees-insurance-repairs/Text HOUSE to (661) 888-4983 for the sold data on your specific tract.

Australia's best-known real-estate consumer advocate Neil Jenman calls in to talk with Jeremy Cordeaux about his new book "Questions Every Seller Must Ask" — and to blow the whistle on the traps costing home sellers dearly. Neil takes aim at vendor-paid advertising, the "uniquely Australian scam" where sellers are asked to pay for marketing up front whether their home sells or not, explains why auctions are often the worst way to get the best price, how commissions really work, and the one word — "justify" — that changes the whole conversation with an agent. Practical, plain-spoken and firmly on the side of the ordinary buyer and seller. With thanks to our sponsor Rossdale Homes — fixed-price peace of mind, because trust is a must. rossdalehomes.com.auSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

After years of refusing to lower prices, more and more home sellers are starting to throw in the towel, says housing analyst Nick Gerli of Reventure Consulting.And as more distressed inventory hits the market, we're starting to see "crash pricing" in certain markets.The trend is early, and prices will likely still fall further.But as Nick walks us through in this video, if you're scrappy and can negotiate well, your odds of buying a house today at 2019 prices are getting a lot better.For a very important housing market update, watch this video.WORRIED ABOUT THE STOCK MARKET?

What do dating apps and real estate have in common? More than you might think. In this episode, we're diving into a surprisingly accurate comparison between online dating profiles and home listings.

We break down the difference between staging, interior design, and creating a home that truly works for your lifestyle. Whether you're preparing to sell, shopping for your next home, or simply looking for ways to enjoy your current home more, this conversation is packed with practical insights that can help you see real estate differently. At the Todd Tramonte Home Selling Team, we believe great real estate advice goes beyond buying and selling. Sometimes it's about helping you see what's possible in a home and making the most of the place you already live. CALL or TEXT us ANYTIME 214-216-2161 Have you ever toured a home that looked completely different than the photos? Tell us about it in the comments!

Today - For home sellers, making sure your house is ready and appealing to buyers can mean you have to have a tough skin, but it can pay off. If you want your home to stand out in today's market, you have to nail the first impression. Clark breaks down how to stop turning buyers off and start getting offers. Also, Clark shares a terrifying cautionary tale that will make you think twice about choosing "paperless" billing. A systems glitch at Fidelity completely wiped out a Colorado woman's life savings, leaving her account balance at zero with no electronic record that she ever even existed. It took months of stressful battles with a flippant customer service department to restore her decades of hard work. There are currently forces at work that could leave you entirely responsible for proving your own net worth. While Clark isn't telling you to stuff cash under your mattress, he is sounding an urgent warning. Plus, Lane (Clark's wife!) shares your #AskClark questions and Clark gives his take.

Watch my video to find out which one fits your situation.

According to the latest data from the Canadian Real Estate Association, national home sales declined by 1.7% month-over-month in September, ending a string of steady gains that began in the spring. Even so, this was still the strongest September for sales since 2021. On a year-over-year basis, transactions were up 5.2%, while both new listings and total active listings fell 0.8%. That left just 4.4 months of inventory available nationwide — the lowest level since January, and below the long-term average of five months.The Home Price Index dropped 0.1% month-over-month and is now down 3.4% year-over-year. Average prices, meanwhile, rose a modest 0.7% compared to last year. Regionally, B.C. and Ontario are the only provinces still showing price declines, while every other province posted gains. Yukon led the pack with a 13.4% annual price increase.But when you adjust for inflation and measure from the February 2022 peak, the story changes dramatically. Real home prices in Canada are now down roughly 29%. In nominal terms, they're down 18%. Hamilton has taken the biggest hit—down about 40% after inflation—followed by the GTA and then Vancouver, which is sitting around a 20% real decline. On the flip side, Greater Moncton and Saskatoon are actually up roughly 19% nominal, or about 8% in real terms, since that same peak.The widening gap between new listings and completed sales continues to point toward more downward pressure on prices ahead. And even though affordability has “improved” from the record-breaking lows of 2024, it remains completely out of reach for most Canadians. In Vancouver, the monthly mortgage payment on a median-priced home still eats up about 87% of the median household income — a figure that's almost comically unsustainable.So where does that leave us heading into the final stretch of 2025? Will collapsing affordability finally force the next rate cut — or will the Bank hold the line, freezing the market even further? We break it all down — from record-level mortgage exposure to the cities where prices have quietly crashed 40%.This episode also marks a huge milestone — Episode 300 of The Vancouver Life Real Estate Podcast. Since launching on June 22nd, 2020, the team has released a new episode every single Saturday without missing a week. Now with over 7,000 subscribers and 70,000+ monthly views, The Vancouver Life remains one of Canada's most consistent and data-driven real estate channels.To celebrate, we're giving away our exclusive Home Seller's Manual — the guide we use to help clients sell for top dollar. It includes prep strategies, curb-appeal tips, organization hacks, and a 100-point checklist showing which areas matter most. To get your copy make sure you watch the episode and comment TOP DOLLAR.We also unpack Vancouver's sweeping new rezoning — a city-initiated move affecting over 4,000 properties across the Broadway Plan and Cambie Corridor. Projects that meet the new criteria can skip rezoning entirely, shaving up to 12 months off approval times. It's a bold step toward faster housing — but with costs high and demand soft, will developers take advantage?Episode 300 of The Vancouver Life Real Estate Podcast — available now and join the discussion about where Canada's housing market is heading next. _________________________________ Contact Us To Book Your Private Consultation:

How can you budget for irregular expenses without daily tracking?

Learn how to price your home right, boost curb appeal in the colder months, and make your property stand out to today's savvy buyers. We'll also explore home equity loans and what sellers should know about leveraging their home's value.

Are you thinking of selling your Philadelphia home—but unsure if the market is still hot like it used to be?Are you relying on outdated expectations from the 2020 boom? If so, it's time for a serious reality check.In this solo episode of Moving Sucks, Seth dives deep into what Philly home sellers need to know for 2026. From the shift in market trends to the three make-or-break moves every seller must consider, this is your no-fluff guide to surviving and thriving in this new real estate landscape.

Send us a textWant to see the video? Watch hereWant a listing presentation that doesn't hinge on price haggling or a flashy brochure? We walk through a simple, high-trust system that gives every seller four clear choices on one net sheet—FSBO, a traditional listing, a Conventional CPO (pre-inspected) listing, and a Cash CPO pathway that trades some fees for speed, privacy, and certainty. Instead of pushing a tactic, we match strategy to life events, timelines, and risk tolerance, then let the clients choose. That shift—from selling to educating—wins the room.We bring the framework to life with a candid role-play: a divorcing couple who want fewer showings and predictable timelines. You'll hear the exact scripts that turn “cash-offer” hand-raisers into appointments, how to present FSBO honestly without fear, and why traditional listings stumble during inspection in a nervous market. Then we go deep on Conventional CPO: order a pre-inspection, fix only high-ROI items, disclose what's done and not done, and watch repair credits shrink while close rates jump. Finally, we outline the Cash CPO pathway—advance in 14–90 days, targeted updates, no showings—so sellers who value privacy can move without chaos.You'll leave with a practical playbook: where to generate the four-option net sheet in minutes, how to coordinate inspectors and vendors, and a simple weekly update cadence that keeps everyone aligned. Whether you're meeting seniors unlocking equity for care, expireds wary of more drama, or busy families who can't stage life around showings, this approach replaces pressure with predictability. Steal the scripts, use the net sheet, and let choice be the close.If this helped you reimagine your listing strategy, follow the show, share it with a teammate, and leave a quick review.

Got a midweek update for you, and let me tell you, it's a doozy! We're diving into the chaotic world of prepping a house for sale, and spoiler alert: there's always one more thing to fix. Seriously, it's like a never-ending game of “What did I forget?” where the prize is a slightly less chaotic living space.
