Crazy Shit In Real Estate

Summary:

Realty is about more than making the sale—it’s about making the clients feel comfortable and, if need be, normal. And sometimes that means listening to the walls, or pretending to see “wonderful kittens” in a closet that doesn’t exist! Listen as today’s guest, Lani Rosales talks about her experience with a schizophrenic client.
