Podcast: Real Talk with Leigh Brown

If your inbox looks anything like mine, you've probably seen the same headlines I have. Housing crisis. AI. Interest rates. Mergers. Rent control. Everybody's yelling, and somehow we're all supposed to figure out what's actually important.

I'm sharing a few of the stories that landed in my inbox this week and giving you my take on what they actually mean for REALTORS®, homeowners, landlords, and anybody trying to make sense of today's housing market. Some of these headlines deserve your attention. Others? Not so much.

‍

Key takeaways to listen for

• Why I don't believe real estate will ever become a commodity
• Thoughts on rent control and the unintended consequences that follow
• Where AI can actually help your business and where it can't
• Why housing policy deserves more attention from real estate professionals
• How to decide which headlines are worth paying attention to
