Speaker 1 (00:00):
Is ursl last show for me personally before the Independence
Day holiday. John keldera Independence Institute, will be in for
me tomorrow, looking forward to that. I'm sure many of
you are as well. But before we send you off,
we've got a lot to get to here in our
second and final hour, including a look at the real
estate market and these hot summer months as we head
(00:21):
into this month of July. Also July fourth, eats and
treats and barbecue.
Speaker 2 (00:28):
And what are you gonna do?
Speaker 1 (00:30):
We have a guest along those lines as well, and
then Potus joins US President of the United States to
cap it all off. Hope you ready this from Peter
says July fourth, last minute road trip to Bismarck, North Dakota.
Why because we can see all of our beautiful America.
I love that Peter and I had a trip. I'm
so bummed out of it that I had a trip
scheduled so on my way back from Billings, Montana, back
(00:53):
home to Michigan during those summer years of twenty eleven
twelve thirteen, when I worked for the bill Mustangs and
the summer was over, I was going to go see
Mount Rushmore and then a whole bunch of Shenannig has happened.
It with my own version of planes, trains and automobiles,
and I never got to see it in person. So
I am making that my solemn vow to you, Peter,
and my quest that I'm going to get that done.
Speaker 2 (01:14):
Also, my quest is going to get you informed. And
I was very proud of.
Speaker 1 (01:17):
Myself because I was able to contribute to the conversation
we're about to have. As Ashley Key joins me live
in studio, keyfront range homes dot com, I sent her
the following from X and Bar chart breaking US housing market.
First time home buyers have fallen to a record low,
well below the twenty year average as well going back
to two thousand and four. Ashley, what say you about
(01:40):
this particular data point.
Speaker 3 (01:43):
Oh, it's just unfortunate. The cost of housing is higher,
the cost of living is higher. It's just harder for
younger people to get into the market. So yeah, that's
it's a very sad consequence of the state of the
economy and how that young people are just having to wait.
Speaker 4 (02:03):
I bought my first house at thirty two.
Speaker 2 (02:06):
It's very good, So that's well done by you.
Speaker 1 (02:09):
What I would say is especially for young people, but
even those that are middle class and maybe they've been
renting just happened. Like myself, I move around a lot,
so I've not bought a home. I haven't done that,
not personally, not myself, not my professional career. And the
obstacle that a lot of people feel to that is,
you know, how do I get into a house? It's overwhelming,
the experience, you know, coming up with a down payment,
(02:32):
getting a thirty year mortgage set up. I mean, what
would you tell somebody coming into this process that they're
just kind of initially overwhelmed.
Speaker 4 (02:39):
I always say, start with a really good lender. You'd
be surprised.
Speaker 3 (02:42):
A lot of times people can afford more than they
think they can, and like you said, they're overwhelmed, so
they they sit tight and they think they're waiting for something.
But we started with our lender about two years before
we bought and just kind of helped us save up
the right amount of money. And there's a ton of
programs for first time home bykers, you know, to help
them get their get the plane off the ground.
Speaker 2 (03:05):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (03:06):
So with that analogy, Ashley Key joining us keyfront range
homes dot com. She works through lives Southby's International Realty,
so it's top of the line stuff, but she can
get you into a home. And again, the staging that's
available at her website that you see it is unlike
on anything that I've seen in the housing markets, especially here,
both locally and throughout the state of Colorado. Data points
(03:27):
that you have before me here and I'm looking through this,
but just you know, we'll stay away from like a
lot of the numbers, but just kind of broad strokes
the Metro Denver and the Denver Foothills and what you're
sensing about the market as it's capping off from April
to May.
Speaker 3 (03:42):
Yeah, we're definitely seeing a lot more inventory, both in
Denver and the foothills. Denver Metro's up forty six percent
year over year with inventory and in the foothills. I mean,
we're just significantly more people selling than buying right now,
and so I think that's the time to be. I
(04:04):
think that's encouraging for buyers because you have more options
and people are more negotiable and flexible. And then I
think for the sellers it's you know, how do we
get your home to compete with all the others?
Speaker 4 (04:15):
And I think that's where you've got to go the
extra mile.
Speaker 3 (04:17):
With staging, photography, prelisting, consultation, all the things just to
get you in the perfect position to really shine against
the other homes. You can't just put a sign in
the yard anymore, No, and cross your fingers and toes
and get thirty offers do.
Speaker 1 (04:33):
Fizzbo for sale by owners, don't do that that idea
Actually Key joining us here at keyfront range homes dot
Com for Ashley Key Reality the driving factors and forces
as you see them behind the housing markets right now.
You mentioned the incredible amount of inventory. There are a
lot of homes out there that are available to be sold.
(04:55):
I'm no expert that would tell me, though, that it's
a buyer's market and you're having to do more like
you said and terms of footwork to make sellers homes
stand out. So what are those driving forces and factors that.
Speaker 3 (05:06):
You see them right now for the sellers or buyers
either one?
Speaker 4 (05:11):
You know, I think there's a big.
Speaker 3 (05:14):
A lot of people are pulling up because of politics
here in Colorado.
Speaker 4 (05:19):
I've heard that a lot.
Speaker 3 (05:20):
I don't like speaking the negative, but the reality is
what drives people is schools for families, it's schools, it's time,
you know, say that you want to be safe, you
want your kids to get a good education, and then
just having a reasonable cost of living. And I think
those things have sort of been beat up a little
bit in the last couple of years. And I know
(05:41):
a lot of people. I'm moving more people out of
state than I am into the state now and I can,
and I've sort of shifted my focus to taking care
of people who are wanting to move a distance and
instead of you know, from town to town. So I'm
just seeing a lot more that and I understand it,
and I think that's the story that nobody's talking about.
(06:03):
Everybody's talking about their rise in inventory, but nobody's talking
about why. So it's for residential it's school's crime, cost
of living. For investors, I had a huge book of investors,
and it's they're buying long terminals and short terminals, and
there have been a bunch of new restrictions for those,
just growing like year over year. It's all about tenants, right,
(06:26):
It's not about landlord's rights. So it's more risky to
have a long term rental or short terminal. It's almost
impossible to get a short terminal and a lot of
time towns have eliminated that all together. So not as
good for investors. I mean, it's people are still buying houses.
People always move to the area. There's always you know,
(06:47):
somebody will always need a bigger house. They're having a
family or whatever. Moving is happening. So buying and selling
is happening, But just from an overall market perspective, it's
just a little different. It's gone down, you know, because
of bad policy.
Speaker 1 (07:01):
Ashley Key joining us keyfront range homes dot Com. Happy
to have her on the air and breaking down these
topics as we get into the midst of these summer months.
For a moment, Ashley, for people that are hearing you
for the first time, just a little bit about your background.
What drives you in this industry, Why does it appeal
to you, Why is your passion here for it?
Speaker 2 (07:21):
How did you get involved in it in the first place.
Speaker 3 (07:23):
So my background's working with trouble teenagers. I think that
translates pretty perfectly into real estate. It's a lot of
problem solving, meeting needs, helping people. You know, I did
I when the market tanked in two thousand and eight,
I took a couple of years and did event planning,
so I kind of got focused on the design side
of things. What do people see, how do they think,
(07:44):
what do they experience. I started staging my listenings really
before anybody else was doing it.
Speaker 4 (07:50):
It's just my thing.
Speaker 3 (07:50):
I have a forty foot storage unit full of really
cool stuff to make a house look more appealing to
the broader buyer. So it's just what I've always done.
I think you have to have a certain screw loose
to do real estate, and I have it. I mean,
I love it. It's my passion. I love making a
lot of money for people, and then I love getting
(08:12):
good deals for people.
Speaker 4 (08:13):
It's just it's my sickness and I love it.
Speaker 2 (08:17):
We love having you here.
Speaker 1 (08:18):
And it's the biggest purchase that most people are ever
going to make, is a new home and maybe their
dream home. And especially as you deal with homes here
on the front Range and as you mentioned the Foothills, Evergreen,
et cetera. You know, people are looking and people are
still buying, like you said, but then there's an element
of home sales that I experience firsthand and I relate
(08:40):
to and I see as a topic of discussion here
and I want to walk through my own experience and
have you just kind of describe how you handle this,
because there's a personal element to this. There's a human
element to this when you have a state sales or
an empty nester, downsizers, or in my case, my mom
passed away November of twenty two. She had been living
(09:00):
in the house that I grew up in on three acres.
Now she couldn't take care of it all, but we
had people that would help her.
Speaker 2 (09:06):
But after she was gone, now we have this empty house.
Speaker 1 (09:09):
My dad's still alive, but he had dragged his feet
on maintenance upkeep, you know, getting it ready for sale.
And so, you know, I felt really bad because I'm here,
and then my three siblings are there. They're having to
go through, I mean, a house full and a lifetime
of memories and the basement and everything that we've accumulated
(09:30):
over the years. My sister Angie had to go through
my mom's clothes and all these things that are so emotional,
and so it makes it really difficult to know what
we got to get these things out of here, clear
out this house, get it ready to sell, sell it too.
So that's when A n Ashley Key comes in, and
that's a really key for lack of a better role
(09:50):
that you're playing is to alleviate some of that stress
for a family that's going through something like that.
Speaker 3 (09:55):
Right, Yeah, I mean I think that's what a full
service real estate agent does.
Speaker 4 (10:00):
A team of people.
Speaker 3 (10:01):
I've got packers and movers and organizers. I sold a
listing a couple of months ago in Evergreen. It was
fifty eight hundred square feet. Two people that had lived
there for a long time. They had so much stuff,
just treasures, and that each one of them required proper care.
So we hired a team to come in and help
(10:22):
them pack and organize and simplify. Sometimes we've done a
state sales. You can hire an a state sale person
that will take care of getting rid of all the
things and just really lightening your load. A lot of
times it's sometimes it's the states that people have passed on.
Sometimes it's we just really want to downsize, We want
to simplify our.
Speaker 4 (10:42):
Lives and just lighten the load.
Speaker 3 (10:47):
And so it's always hard and emotional, but it's also
very freeing. I find at the end people are glad
to have a lighter load.
Speaker 4 (10:55):
I've also got.
Speaker 3 (10:56):
Great movers and so I feel like I'm whatever somebody needs.
Everything is every deal is different, every day is different
in real estate. So you've got to meet the people
where they are, and then you've got to bring the
market you know with you and your knowledge of the
market with you.
Speaker 4 (11:12):
And it's a.
Speaker 3 (11:14):
Very turnkey like that. A lot start to finish. You know,
whatever somebody needs and everyone's different, and I love that's
the compassionate part of the process that I love is
handholding and making the process easier for the people.
Speaker 1 (11:33):
Keyfront range homes dot com. That's the website, all kinds
of things available here. I mean so many photos you
can see the examples of these staging and it's so
well done.
Speaker 2 (11:41):
It's it's top notch.
Speaker 1 (11:43):
And this can really help move your home if you're
looking to sell as well. And you've hit on an
element Ashley about problem solving, and what I'd like for
you to tell to our listeners here is if there's
a specific example or maybe a broader case, you talk
about the team that you've assembled and how you're able
to get this turnkey process started and finished and every
point in between. But if a story that stands out
(12:05):
about a problem that you were able to solve either
in buying or selling a home serving as somebody's agent.
Speaker 2 (12:11):
It's the one that kind of jumps off the page.
Speaker 4 (12:13):
Oh gosh, I think the one that I mentioned. You know,
they were moving.
Speaker 3 (12:18):
To another state, they moved to Montana and just helping them,
you know, I mean I think they had like six
curio cabinets full of treasures, They had closets full of treasures,
and getting that house sort of moved out of and
then coming in and staging it.
Speaker 4 (12:36):
You know, we did a couple little.
Speaker 3 (12:37):
Bit of painting, and like I said, every house is different,
so you can't treat everyone the same. But I go
in with people and do a pre listing consultation where
I make recommendations on paint colors. A lot of times
you don't need to do things. People think I need
to do all these things. But I like to come
in and say, your carpets don't need to be replaced,
maybe they just need to be cleaned. And if you
(12:59):
switch out a couple of light fixtures, you know, paint
this wall simplify. I mean, everyone is different, so it's
hard for me to focus on one specifically, but it's
that you know, prelisting consultation and then I come in
and pre stage stage and then we do a ton
of pictures. I'm very, very much a perfectionist about the
(13:21):
photography that.
Speaker 2 (13:22):
We yes, it looks like it yeah on the website.
Speaker 4 (13:25):
I've been known to make and I pay for all
the photography.
Speaker 3 (13:27):
I mean it's usually a two thousand dollars investment on
the front end just to get the house photographed video
like good video.
Speaker 4 (13:34):
I do twilight.
Speaker 3 (13:35):
Photos just to put it in the best light. And
it makes a difference. Like I can say, you know,
I've come in for sale by owner listing that wouldn't sell.
They came in listed it with me, and I made
them with paying commissions two hundred thousand dollars more than
what they had it listed for sale by owner.
Speaker 4 (13:52):
And it's just by the photography, the stage eight and.
Speaker 3 (13:55):
Getting the home and perfect show shape where the next
buyer is going to fall in love. And I will
say this market is we'll turn its nose up to
a home that is not in that kind of shape,
that's not clean, that's you know, I wouldn't say it
fix right now, there's good deals to have and fix
the ruppers. From a cellar standpoint, the last listing, you know,
(14:17):
we finished, they had carpet on the stairs. I'm like,
let's do some hardwoods. Twelve hundred bucks done, carpet's clean done.
It was an empty home, so we staged at top
to bottom, and then you've.
Speaker 4 (14:28):
Got to tell the home story.
Speaker 3 (14:30):
You know, this was a in a neighborhood that had
horse properties, so we brought in a lot of horse
artwork and it's sold in three days. So that's not
the overall market response to new listings, but we have
great luck, and it's I think it's doing all those things.
Speaker 1 (14:47):
It is, and what it tells me is that you know,
you go all out, you leave no stone unturned. And
the thing even little things that you were observing right
there and telling to our audience. You know, you're picking
up on those very fine details that the casual eye
might not pick up on. But you do carpeting on
the stairs. I sort of think maybe you don't need
to replace the carpet, you can clean them. So I
think somebody that's again in the experience of being overwhelmed,
(15:10):
they got to sell their home.
Speaker 2 (15:11):
You know, what do I have to do? Where do
I start?
Speaker 1 (15:13):
You're able to kind of maybe calm them down a
little bit and get them to focus on the things
that matter. And especially when you give advice that saves
them a little bit of money here there, they don't
have to necessarily spend you know, X amount, and every
little thing it shows that you're pulling in the same direction.
You're truly looking out for their best interests, right, And
I just.
Speaker 3 (15:31):
Love to have the chance to have those prelistening consultations
because a lot of times, Number one, I can usually
make people more than what they think for their house
more often than not, and then just give them actionable
items for getting their home ready.
Speaker 4 (15:46):
And I love that. I mean, that's Lifsubeby's too.
Speaker 3 (15:49):
That's the expectation is an agent there where turnkey we're
full service white glove.
Speaker 4 (15:54):
We have a lot of support so that we.
Speaker 3 (15:55):
Can take care of our clients with the same level
of care they do a lot for me, so that
I can do a lot for my people.
Speaker 2 (16:02):
So I'm going to have you connect some dots here.
Speaker 1 (16:03):
So if somebody just randomly goes to the website keyfrontrange
homes dot com, what will they find there and how
will you begin that journey with them?
Speaker 3 (16:13):
I just text me send me a text message. My
phone numbers on the website.
Speaker 2 (16:18):
See it.
Speaker 3 (16:19):
I'll tell you no, it's seven two zero five zero
seven four five three nine. Text me and let's just
start the conversation. I'm very low pressure too. I don't
have time to pressure and call people all the time,
and I'm just here to serve. So give me that
opportunity to have that conversation with you. I can show
up at your house with an idea of what I
think we can get even before we get started, and
(16:40):
then having that prelisting consultation and go from there, and
then the timing has to be right for you, so
it will never be a pressure situation.
Speaker 1 (16:48):
You mentioned a couple of times and a couple of
different rights. Don't do the fizzbo for sale by owner
and how that process can improve simply by enlisting your services.
But if there's something other than overall general cleanliness and presentation,
which I know you're big on. Is there a mistake
that a person who is selling their home tends to
make that you've seen recurring that you come in as
(17:09):
an agent and.
Speaker 3 (17:10):
The pricing, Yeah, yeah, a lot of times it's pricing,
you know, it's they don't stage they don't have the
you know, iPhone pictures are not going.
Speaker 4 (17:19):
To cut it.
Speaker 3 (17:20):
That's just going to lower the number of people that
want to see your house. And the goal is to
get as many people in as possible, and the good pictures,
the good staging, creating a good experience makes all the difference.
And I tell people too, like you don't know that
you need a realtor until you need a realtor. Like
you may think, oh, this is easy, and I've seen
it done before and you know, they just put.
Speaker 4 (17:42):
A sign in the yard and they got list price.
But there's so many.
Speaker 3 (17:47):
Things like even from you know, going through the inspection
items I had in a listing. I mean, people ask
for twenty five thousand dollars worth of stuff recently and
I was able to go back and get it down
to a thousand dollars. But you don't no, as a
for sale by owner person whether.
Speaker 4 (18:02):
That should be done or not.
Speaker 3 (18:04):
You you don't really know what you're agreeing to. Getting
through the inspection is really complicated.
Speaker 2 (18:09):
And that's just the tip of the iceberg.
Speaker 4 (18:11):
Good iceberg.
Speaker 1 (18:11):
You can find out more at keyfrontrange homes dot com.
I think Ashley Key joining us live in studio and
Georgia for her special guest appearance as well a time out.
We're back with more after this on Ryan Shuling Live
five seven seven three nine. On the text line, how
about this one, Zach, I plan to start smoking a
(18:32):
pork shoulder tomorrow night at ten pm, so that'll be.
Speaker 2 (18:35):
Nice and ready to eat around three pm on the fourth.
Speaker 1 (18:38):
Oh, whoever, that is well done, sir or mam as
the case, maybe what do you think of that one?
Speaker 2 (18:43):
Zie?
Speaker 1 (18:43):
That sounds like heaven on Earth right there, the pork shoulder,
that's where the pulled pork comes from. I've done that
myself a couple of times. It's fantastic, cannot go wrong.
Back here on Ryan Shuling Live, she's becoming domestic. No,
not Kelly Cachera, not even close. She's a childling like
from Dam of Thrill. But the website she's becoming domestic
(19:05):
dot com. You may have heard me talk about before
with our next guest, Shannesty, Ireland food and lifestyle influencer.
And here just in time, I'm talking nick of time
stuff Shannasty for our Fourth of July, our barbecues, everything
that's going on, last minute ideas, set the people's nerves
at ease.
Speaker 2 (19:23):
What can you recommend?
Speaker 5 (19:26):
I'm so glad you had me on. I love the
fourth of July. It's just kind of the pinnacle of summer.
And if you're being together with your friend's family, or
if you're just even hosting for your small intermediate family,
now is the time to go ahead and start preparing.
I'm talking think of the menu, Think of the people
that are going to be at your barbecue, or they're
(19:46):
going to be kids, there is there going to be
mostly adults, and then really trying to hash it out.
Are you going to ask guests to bring a side dish?
Are you going to ask them to bring a sixteth?
It's not cliche anymore to ask people to bring stuff,
So I think now is the time to prepare. I
love that one person that wrote in and said they're
already marinating and they're ready to go with the pork ar.
(20:08):
Now is the time to go ahead and prepare. I
want to come to that person's barbecue because they know
what's up, and.
Speaker 1 (20:13):
So does Shannessy Ireland. In fact, she's got an article
on her website She's becoming Domestic dot com entitled how
to throw the best Fourth of July Party, easy tips
and festive recipes. Give me something festive, shaannessty Oh, I'm
so glad you asked.
Speaker 5 (20:28):
I love just a confetti pasta salad. I call it
that because it's got to be vibrant. It's got to
have the green cucumbers, the red cherry tomatoes, the red
onion in there. Just really beautiful. I love to use
this with a very light dressing. I just do a
little bit of olive oil, fresh dill, basil, barlic, lemon juice,
(20:50):
and then I put a little bit a tiny bit
of maple syrup in there too. That's going to make
it really light and refreshing. I don't like having the
bottle of Italian dressing. That's okay, you want to do
it that way, but I think it just really makes
the flavors pop. When you have something homemade, that's something
you can prepare.
Speaker 4 (21:06):
Guys.
Speaker 5 (21:07):
Now, you can cut up all of those vegetables and
have them ready to go in your refrigerator, make the
pasa ahead of time, and then just throw the dressing
on when folks arrive. If we're talking about dessert, I
love just the traditional strawberry shortcake with the angel food
cake and the whipped cream and the strawberries and the blueberries.
You cannot go wrong with that. Kids love it, adults
(21:28):
love it. It's nostalgic. It takes us back to our childhood.
That's always my go to for the Fourth of July dessert.
Speaker 1 (21:34):
We're looking forward to that just a couple of days away.
As Shannessty Ireland says, you want to get that prep
in right now, get to the store, get the meats going.
And that's another thing, Shannessty. You know a lot of
times your spread's going to be outdoors, so you want
something some elements you mentioned a couple I think that
are cool and refreshing, and that could be a six pack,
like you said, but also foods that are going to
(21:55):
maintain well, maybe out in the heat a little bit.
There's some environmental concerns and elements especially I'm going back
home to Michigan to be nice and hot and humid there. Well,
how does that factor in maybe the sort of items
that you're planning on presenting.
Speaker 5 (22:08):
Yeah, you want to keep some of those things inside
the house. You want to keep them on the refrigerator
until it's go time. You don't want to have the
watermelon out there roasting all day, it's just going to
be nasty. So just having the cool stuff and the
refrigerator and then being able to bring it out when
the time comes. Maybe when the kids are having the
sparklers and the fireworks are ready to pop, that's a
(22:29):
good time to bring them out. Sometimes I love just
a good old fashioned bomb pop topsicle for the kids
and make that into a cocktail. You can you have
an adult friendly If we're talking about the brands, they
love Rayburn Sandwiches. They have these pork cold pork sandwiches
that are so simple. You just pop them in the
microwave for ninety seconds and I swear nobody's going to
(22:51):
know it came from the frozen food section. It's bakery, soft, fun,
absolutely delicious. So if you don't want to take on
the time and the effort to make your own fork shoulder,
you could always grab something like that that's a little
bit on the simple side.
Speaker 1 (23:05):
Shannisty, is there a story you can share or maybe
a plan that people can make, because you know this
is a unique holiday in a lot of ways, and
that it's almost invariably outdoors, weather permitting. Of course, but
that there are activities, lots of room for activities to
plan and to map out for the kids out there
and everything else.
Speaker 2 (23:23):
How would you say it would be an.
Speaker 1 (23:25):
Effective, you know, short term kind of good way to
plot this out.
Speaker 2 (23:28):
To make sure everybody has a good time.
Speaker 6 (23:31):
Head over to the.
Speaker 5 (23:32):
Dollar tree or the dollar store. You guys may laugh,
but it's going to be outdoors. A lot of these
things are going to probably be tossed right on July
fifth or right after your party, so you don't want
to spend a lot of money on it. They have
so many wonderful decorations. Or to go over to Amazon,
it's not too late if you can get overnight delivery
for the kids. I love water balloons. They make them
(23:53):
so simple now, guys. You just pop it up to
your spickett on your hose and the water balloons just
pop down. The kids absolutely love it. Sidewalkshalt competitions, and
anything to get the kids off the screens and outside
to enjoy. Even those glow sticks, the cheap ones that
you put around your neck, that's a good way to
keep track of your kids when it gets stark and
(24:14):
the fireworks are pulping. Anything like that, Pornold said about
that anything that's going to get everyone outside is just
so fun and festive. As I mentioned, I just love
this holiday because I just think it's the peak of
summer and bringing everybody together. It's just always a great.
Speaker 1 (24:30):
Time bringing everybody together. There's a lot involved in a
Shannessy Ireland. She's got five little ones. That's so fantastic,
a big family in this day and age. You can
find her online at She's becoming domestic dot com and
the article within for Fourth of July it's right there
spelled out for you, even more details than she just
talked about. How to throw the best Fourth of July party,
easy tips and festive recipes. Shannesty, always a good time,
(24:53):
have a great Independence Day holiday.
Speaker 2 (24:55):
We'll talk to you again.
Speaker 5 (24:55):
Soon, okay, I look forward to it. Thanks guys.
Speaker 1 (24:58):
Bite All right, Shannesty Ireland joining us right there, so
your Fourth of July is ready to go. But you
got to hear from the Big Man, the Orange Man,
the Potus, the President of the United States.
Speaker 2 (25:08):
He joins us next on Ryan Shuling Live. Closing out
this edition after this from mtent Hoo. Should note but
this is air conditioned facility, so if any of the
news claims are keeping him out in the hot human
South Florida, that is wrong. It's probably sixty good to
bring here to be one.
Speaker 7 (25:28):
Hey, Biden wanted me in here.
Speaker 2 (25:30):
Okay, he wanted me.
Speaker 6 (25:32):
It didn't work out that way, but he wanted me
in here.
Speaker 1 (25:35):
Et President Trump at Alligator Alcatrez, joking about Joe Biden.
It was air conditioned there, however, and joining us now.
We're happy to be going into our fourth of July
holiday Independence Day on Ryan Shuling Live with your President
of the United States, number forty five and forty seven, Donald Trump,
mister President, thank you for your time.
Speaker 2 (25:53):
As always, Well, we're very happy to be here.
Speaker 6 (25:56):
Was a wonderful trip to Alligator Alcatraz, and we hope
everybody has a very happy and healthy and say fourth
of July. You know, I worked very hard with Thomas
Jefferson to write the Declaration of Independence, and thankfully Thomas
Massey wasn't dead to block it.
Speaker 7 (26:09):
I can tell you that you said.
Speaker 1 (26:12):
Something about Joe Biden there at the end, and you
were trailing off a little bit. Some people say you
called him a son of a b word, and other
people say you called him a son of a goat?
Speaker 2 (26:20):
Which was it?
Speaker 5 (26:22):
Oh?
Speaker 6 (26:22):
No, I definitely called him a son of a B word.
I absolutely did you know that, because that's exactly what
he is. You know, you look at that, and I'm
not afraid to say it. He's called me worse, and
he's called other people very worse things to like a lie,
dog face, pony soldier. He called people very nasty names,
and he did very nasty things to people. So we
(26:42):
called him that because he tried to put me in jail.
You know, we have Alligator alcatrazr. And it's a wonderful place.
We say chomp, chomp, chump, because these gators are very hungry,
right and we have the greatest gaters. Nobody's ever seen
gators like this.
Speaker 7 (26:56):
We have the.
Speaker 6 (26:57):
Greatest and most highly respected gators, Alligator Alcatras.
Speaker 7 (27:01):
You know what we say. You know what the slogan is.
The slogan is where every wan is welcome. You get it,
everyone and no one will be left behind.
Speaker 6 (27:09):
I can tell you that too, including Trende Aragua, which
is out there in your state. Because your fat governor
doesn't know what the hell he's doing or what the
you know what he's doing.
Speaker 7 (27:19):
We said that last week.
Speaker 6 (27:21):
You know it starts with F and with the other
three letters, and it's not firetruck. You know what I'm
talking about. But you look at these alligators. These are
tremendous alligators with teeth bigger than Kathy hokals teeth. You
know her, the bucktooth Botox bandit of Buffalo.
Speaker 8 (27:38):
In New York.
Speaker 7 (27:39):
She's horrible.
Speaker 6 (27:40):
And I'm used to handling these bloodthirsty reptiles like Nancy
Pelosi and Crooked Hillary Clitter. Unlike them, these alligators actually
keep their teeth in them out. It's a tremendous facility.
We love alligator alcatras.
Speaker 7 (27:53):
And every one is welcome.
Speaker 1 (27:55):
Believe me, mister President, appreciate his time joining us here
on Ryan Schuling Knife. There seemed to be the talking
points handed out about alligator alcatraz.
Speaker 2 (28:03):
I'll get to a couple of those real quick.
Speaker 1 (28:05):
Right here, here's Representative Angie Nixon, Democrat Florida, saying that
what you're building down there, mister President, is more like
a quote modern day concentration camp.
Speaker 5 (28:14):
Florida State Representative Angie Nixon, she is a Democrat. Representative Nixon,
thanks for being with us and just tell us your
reaction to what you saw on her today from President
Trump's visit to your state.
Speaker 4 (28:25):
Yeah, so this isn't about safety. This is actually about
Donald Trump building modern.
Speaker 3 (28:30):
Day concentration camps in an effort to disappear people from
our communities.
Speaker 1 (28:36):
Jerry Reid seemed to be handing the same list of
talking points.
Speaker 4 (28:41):
I had to forget about him. But Rod DeSantis is
still governor of Florida.
Speaker 5 (28:44):
He took the Comfy Couch hosts on a tour of
the concentration camp that he's building in Florida.
Speaker 2 (28:51):
Is it a concentration camp, mister president.
Speaker 7 (28:56):
No, it's not a concentration camp. No. No.
Speaker 6 (29:00):
Beautiful, by the way, it's a waterfront facility with.
Speaker 7 (29:02):
A beautiful view of wildlife.
Speaker 6 (29:04):
These are some of the most majestic creatures the world
has ever seen. You know, they've outlasted millions.
Speaker 7 (29:10):
And millions of years.
Speaker 6 (29:11):
They're almost at the top. You know, I'm the expredator,
but they're almost at the top. But they've lasted millions
and millions of years, and nowhere else do you get
to get these close to these beautiful animals. They're beautiful animals.
I'm like, you know, you have disgusting animals like Rosieodda. No,
these are beautiful animals, and you're going to get very
close to them. You know what I'm thinking of doing.
(29:33):
I think this is a tremendous idea. We're going to
issue what's called the Alligator alcatraans challenge. If you already
illegal alien house that alligator alcatrads and you escape and
you survive, you get citizenship. I don't encourage you try it,
but I think it's a wonderful thing to offer.
Speaker 7 (29:51):
It's not a concentration camp.
Speaker 6 (29:53):
Think of it as a beautiful waterfront resort with beautiful animals.
It's like a modern day Jurassic Park, except we don't.
Speaker 7 (30:00):
Want the dinosaurs to eat you. We don't want that.
We want you to be safe and happy.
Speaker 6 (30:05):
But if you survive and escape, you get citizenship.
Speaker 2 (30:08):
Another version of survivor.
Speaker 1 (30:09):
Right there, President Trump joining us now, your very good friend,
crying Chuck Schumer. He just didn't like the name of
your one big, beautiful bill, so he did this.
Speaker 2 (30:18):
Mister President.
Speaker 8 (30:19):
I raise a point of order against page one, lines
three to five of the pending amendment, which violates Section
three point thirteen B one A of the Congressional Budget
Act of nineteen seventy four.
Speaker 2 (30:34):
The point of order is sustained, the text will be stricken.
Speaker 1 (30:39):
Will you ever recover from that, mister President Chuck Schumer
taking the name one Big Beautiful Bill off of the
one Big Beautiful Bill.
Speaker 6 (30:46):
Well, you know what, he could do whatever the early wants.
He's a Palestinian senator, you know that. And he loves
the new mayor of New York City zurrun right. The
Manhattan Marxists. We call him terrible guy too, Mom, Danny.
And if he breaks the law, we're going to put
him in jail. But Palestinian Chuck, you know he wants
(31:06):
to take the name off. He's got nothing better to do.
He's got nothing better to do besides cooking hamburgers and
putting the cheese on the roller burger?
Speaker 7 (31:14):
Do you see that from less of these people don't
know what the hell they're doing.
Speaker 6 (31:17):
This guy is a complete and total disaster. And if
he wears his glasses further down his nose, they're going
to fall right off. This guy's a I will tell
you what. He's got nothing better to do. He ought
to be ashamed of himself, and he ought to be
in the streets screaming free Palestine. What a stupid person
he is, Chuck Schumer, He's an absolutely stupid person.
Speaker 1 (31:38):
Finally, mister President, there has been this goal of getting
the one big, beautiful bill to your desk by Independence Day,
by July fourth. Here we are on July second. It's
gone through the Senate, some revisions back to the House.
There are some holdouts. Are you optimistic that you'll be
able to sign this on July fourth?
Speaker 7 (31:56):
We're going to get this bill done. We're going to
get it done.
Speaker 6 (32:00):
We have a grandstanding buffoon, Thomas Massey, who voted to
increase the debt ceiling under Biden. He voted to suspend
the debt ceiling under Biden. He was the deciding vote
with the Fiscal Responsibility Act of twenty twenty three in
the House Rules Committee.
Speaker 7 (32:16):
He ought to be ashamed, and you know what else
he ought to be ashamed of.
Speaker 6 (32:20):
His haircut looks like undercooked Linguini.
Speaker 7 (32:23):
It's a disgrace. He ought to do better, He ought
to do a much better job. But he's going to
grandstand that he's going to block the bill.
Speaker 6 (32:30):
If he was around when I wrote the beautiful Declaration
of Independence with Thomas Jefferson.
Speaker 7 (32:34):
You know, Tommy was a great guy.
Speaker 6 (32:36):
Jefferson, fantastic person.
Speaker 7 (32:38):
We got along very well together.
Speaker 6 (32:40):
Massey would have blocked that too.
Speaker 7 (32:41):
What are stupid? But we're going to be able to
do it. We're going to.
Speaker 6 (32:44):
Pass it, and we're going to pass it with flying colors.
We're going to pass it big, we're going to pass
it beautiful, and we're going to have a wonderful July fourth,
the two hundred and forty ninth birthday of our country,
and next year the two hundred and fiftieth birthday of
our country.
Speaker 7 (32:58):
We're going to pass that bill, very optimistic.
Speaker 6 (33:01):
And we're going to get tax cuts, being beautiful tax
cuts for the American people.
Speaker 1 (33:05):
Mister President, final question if that does happen, and you
seem to be optimistic that it will. As a president
of the United States ever had a better week than
you've had. When you go back to last week and
the military strikes on Iran, the peace deals that you're
striking in Africa, the trade deal that you just made
with Vietnam, you're on fire.
Speaker 7 (33:25):
Nobody's had a better week.
Speaker 6 (33:27):
You know, you look at the trade deals in Africa,
Believe it or not, I bless the rains down in Africa.
Speaker 7 (33:31):
I went down there. I said, it's going to take
a lot to drag me away from you.
Speaker 6 (33:35):
They said, sir, there's nothing that a hundred minute more
could ever do.
Speaker 7 (33:38):
We started singing, we had a deal. We did a
tremendous job. In Iran.
Speaker 6 (33:43):
We dropped you know that Stacy Abrams on the four
down nuclear facility, and she was whistling all.
Speaker 7 (33:49):
The way down with that gap.
Speaker 6 (33:50):
Between the teacher, she was whistling all the way down.
Speaker 7 (33:52):
She made a beautiful impact.
Speaker 6 (33:54):
She obliterated it like a toilet bowl after pizzat.
Speaker 7 (33:57):
You know what I'm talking about. We did it.
Speaker 6 (34:00):
Fantastic job. With China, we've got a deal. Vietnam, we
got a deal. Israel and Gaza, we've got a deal,
the Supreme Court said, the District Court's cantonationwide injunctions. We're
winning like nobody has ever seen before. Nobody has ever
seen it. You look at the Miami Dolphins, Don Shula,
they were undefeated, and even they didn't win as much.
Speaker 7 (34:21):
As I won.
Speaker 6 (34:22):
So we're doing so well. We're doing so well. We're
having a golden age. It's coming into our country. We're
bringing it in. It starts today and it's going to
continue for a very long time.
Speaker 1 (34:32):
That much I can tell you, mister President. Great stuff.
As always, we're so thankful for your time. Have a
wonderful Independence Day holiday, and let's hope that big, beautiful
bill gets signed into law.
Speaker 7 (34:42):
It's going to happen.
Speaker 6 (34:43):
Thank you so much. You're a fantastic guy. And remember,
don't quit your day job.
Speaker 1 (34:46):
I mean, do a tremendous show, mister President Donald Trump.
Also known as Sean Ferish, you can catch his ungoverned
podcast and follow him on x at Sean Shawn Underscore
Farish f A R A s h L. I hope
that's enough for you to enjoy your Independence Day holiday.
Be safe out there. I'm heading to Michigan. I'll talk
(35:06):
to you again on Tuesday. Right here, I'm Ryan Schuling
Live
Is ursl last show for me personally before the Independence
Day holiday. John keldera Independence Institute, will be in for
me tomorrow, looking forward to that. I'm sure many of
you are as well. But before we send you off,
we've got a lot to get to here in our
second and final hour, including a look at the real
estate market and these hot summer months as we head
(00:21):
into this month of July. Also July fourth, eats and
treats and barbecue.
Speaker 2 (00:28):
And what are you gonna do?
Speaker 1 (00:30):
We have a guest along those lines as well, and
then Potus joins US President of the United States to
cap it all off. Hope you ready this from Peter
says July fourth, last minute road trip to Bismarck, North Dakota.
Why because we can see all of our beautiful America.
I love that Peter and I had a trip. I'm
so bummed out of it that I had a trip
scheduled so on my way back from Billings, Montana, back
(00:53):
home to Michigan during those summer years of twenty eleven
twelve thirteen, when I worked for the bill Mustangs and
the summer was over, I was going to go see
Mount Rushmore and then a whole bunch of Shenannig has happened.
It with my own version of planes, trains and automobiles,
and I never got to see it in person. So
I am making that my solemn vow to you, Peter,
and my quest that I'm going to get that done.
Speaker 2 (01:14):
Also, my quest is going to get you informed. And
I was very proud of.
Speaker 1 (01:17):
Myself because I was able to contribute to the conversation
we're about to have. As Ashley Key joins me live
in studio, keyfront range homes dot com, I sent her
the following from X and Bar chart breaking US housing market.
First time home buyers have fallen to a record low,
well below the twenty year average as well going back
to two thousand and four. Ashley, what say you about
(01:40):
this particular data point.
Speaker 3 (01:43):
Oh, it's just unfortunate. The cost of housing is higher,
the cost of living is higher. It's just harder for
younger people to get into the market. So yeah, that's
it's a very sad consequence of the state of the
economy and how that young people are just having to wait.
Speaker 4 (02:03):
I bought my first house at thirty two.
Speaker 2 (02:06):
It's very good, So that's well done by you.
Speaker 1 (02:09):
What I would say is especially for young people, but
even those that are middle class and maybe they've been
renting just happened. Like myself, I move around a lot,
so I've not bought a home. I haven't done that,
not personally, not myself, not my professional career. And the
obstacle that a lot of people feel to that is,
you know, how do I get into a house? It's overwhelming,
the experience, you know, coming up with a down payment,
(02:32):
getting a thirty year mortgage set up. I mean, what
would you tell somebody coming into this process that they're
just kind of initially overwhelmed.
Speaker 4 (02:39):
I always say, start with a really good lender. You'd
be surprised.
Speaker 3 (02:42):
A lot of times people can afford more than they
think they can, and like you said, they're overwhelmed, so
they they sit tight and they think they're waiting for something.
But we started with our lender about two years before
we bought and just kind of helped us save up
the right amount of money. And there's a ton of
programs for first time home bykers, you know, to help
them get their get the plane off the ground.
Speaker 2 (03:05):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (03:06):
So with that analogy, Ashley Key joining us keyfront range
homes dot com. She works through lives Southby's International Realty,
so it's top of the line stuff, but she can
get you into a home. And again, the staging that's
available at her website that you see it is unlike
on anything that I've seen in the housing markets, especially here,
both locally and throughout the state of Colorado. Data points
(03:27):
that you have before me here and I'm looking through this,
but just you know, we'll stay away from like a
lot of the numbers, but just kind of broad strokes
the Metro Denver and the Denver Foothills and what you're
sensing about the market as it's capping off from April
to May.
Speaker 3 (03:42):
Yeah, we're definitely seeing a lot more inventory, both in
Denver and the foothills. Denver Metro's up forty six percent
year over year with inventory and in the foothills. I mean,
we're just significantly more people selling than buying right now,
and so I think that's the time to be. I
(04:04):
think that's encouraging for buyers because you have more options
and people are more negotiable and flexible. And then I
think for the sellers it's you know, how do we
get your home to compete with all the others?
Speaker 4 (04:15):
And I think that's where you've got to go the
extra mile.
Speaker 3 (04:17):
With staging, photography, prelisting, consultation, all the things just to
get you in the perfect position to really shine against
the other homes. You can't just put a sign in
the yard anymore, No, and cross your fingers and toes
and get thirty offers do.
Speaker 1 (04:33):
Fizzbo for sale by owners, don't do that that idea
Actually Key joining us here at keyfront range homes dot
Com for Ashley Key Reality the driving factors and forces
as you see them behind the housing markets right now.
You mentioned the incredible amount of inventory. There are a
lot of homes out there that are available to be sold.
(04:55):
I'm no expert that would tell me, though, that it's
a buyer's market and you're having to do more like
you said and terms of footwork to make sellers homes
stand out. So what are those driving forces and factors that.
Speaker 3 (05:06):
You see them right now for the sellers or buyers
either one?
Speaker 4 (05:11):
You know, I think there's a big.
Speaker 3 (05:14):
A lot of people are pulling up because of politics
here in Colorado.
Speaker 4 (05:19):
I've heard that a lot.
Speaker 3 (05:20):
I don't like speaking the negative, but the reality is
what drives people is schools for families, it's schools, it's time,
you know, say that you want to be safe, you
want your kids to get a good education, and then
just having a reasonable cost of living. And I think
those things have sort of been beat up a little
bit in the last couple of years. And I know
(05:41):
a lot of people. I'm moving more people out of
state than I am into the state now and I can,
and I've sort of shifted my focus to taking care
of people who are wanting to move a distance and
instead of you know, from town to town. So I'm
just seeing a lot more that and I understand it,
and I think that's the story that nobody's talking about.
(06:03):
Everybody's talking about their rise in inventory, but nobody's talking
about why. So it's for residential it's school's crime, cost
of living. For investors, I had a huge book of investors,
and it's they're buying long terminals and short terminals, and
there have been a bunch of new restrictions for those,
just growing like year over year. It's all about tenants, right,
(06:26):
It's not about landlord's rights. So it's more risky to
have a long term rental or short terminal. It's almost
impossible to get a short terminal and a lot of
time towns have eliminated that all together. So not as
good for investors. I mean, it's people are still buying houses.
People always move to the area. There's always you know,
(06:47):
somebody will always need a bigger house. They're having a
family or whatever. Moving is happening. So buying and selling
is happening, But just from an overall market perspective, it's
just a little different. It's gone down, you know, because
of bad policy.
Speaker 1 (07:01):
Ashley Key joining us keyfront range homes dot Com. Happy
to have her on the air and breaking down these
topics as we get into the midst of these summer months.
For a moment, Ashley, for people that are hearing you
for the first time, just a little bit about your background.
What drives you in this industry, Why does it appeal
to you, Why is your passion here for it?
Speaker 2 (07:21):
How did you get involved in it in the first place.
Speaker 3 (07:23):
So my background's working with trouble teenagers. I think that
translates pretty perfectly into real estate. It's a lot of
problem solving, meeting needs, helping people. You know, I did
I when the market tanked in two thousand and eight,
I took a couple of years and did event planning,
so I kind of got focused on the design side
of things. What do people see, how do they think,
(07:44):
what do they experience. I started staging my listenings really
before anybody else was doing it.
Speaker 4 (07:50):
It's just my thing.
Speaker 3 (07:50):
I have a forty foot storage unit full of really
cool stuff to make a house look more appealing to
the broader buyer. So it's just what I've always done.
I think you have to have a certain screw loose
to do real estate, and I have it. I mean,
I love it. It's my passion. I love making a
lot of money for people, and then I love getting
(08:12):
good deals for people.
Speaker 4 (08:13):
It's just it's my sickness and I love it.
Speaker 2 (08:17):
We love having you here.
Speaker 1 (08:18):
And it's the biggest purchase that most people are ever
going to make, is a new home and maybe their
dream home. And especially as you deal with homes here
on the front Range and as you mentioned the Foothills, Evergreen,
et cetera. You know, people are looking and people are
still buying, like you said, but then there's an element
of home sales that I experience firsthand and I relate
(08:40):
to and I see as a topic of discussion here
and I want to walk through my own experience and
have you just kind of describe how you handle this,
because there's a personal element to this. There's a human
element to this when you have a state sales or
an empty nester, downsizers, or in my case, my mom
passed away November of twenty two. She had been living
(09:00):
in the house that I grew up in on three acres.
Now she couldn't take care of it all, but we
had people that would help her.
Speaker 2 (09:06):
But after she was gone, now we have this empty house.
Speaker 1 (09:09):
My dad's still alive, but he had dragged his feet
on maintenance upkeep, you know, getting it ready for sale.
And so, you know, I felt really bad because I'm here,
and then my three siblings are there. They're having to
go through, I mean, a house full and a lifetime
of memories and the basement and everything that we've accumulated
(09:30):
over the years. My sister Angie had to go through
my mom's clothes and all these things that are so emotional,
and so it makes it really difficult to know what
we got to get these things out of here, clear
out this house, get it ready to sell, sell it too.
So that's when A n Ashley Key comes in, and
that's a really key for lack of a better role
(09:50):
that you're playing is to alleviate some of that stress
for a family that's going through something like that.
Speaker 3 (09:55):
Right, Yeah, I mean I think that's what a full
service real estate agent does.
Speaker 4 (10:00):
A team of people.
Speaker 3 (10:01):
I've got packers and movers and organizers. I sold a
listing a couple of months ago in Evergreen. It was
fifty eight hundred square feet. Two people that had lived
there for a long time. They had so much stuff,
just treasures, and that each one of them required proper care.
So we hired a team to come in and help
(10:22):
them pack and organize and simplify. Sometimes we've done a
state sales. You can hire an a state sale person
that will take care of getting rid of all the
things and just really lightening your load. A lot of
times it's sometimes it's the states that people have passed on.
Sometimes it's we just really want to downsize, We want
to simplify our.
Speaker 4 (10:42):
Lives and just lighten the load.
Speaker 3 (10:47):
And so it's always hard and emotional, but it's also
very freeing. I find at the end people are glad
to have a lighter load.
Speaker 4 (10:55):
I've also got.
Speaker 3 (10:56):
Great movers and so I feel like I'm whatever somebody needs.
Everything is every deal is different, every day is different
in real estate. So you've got to meet the people
where they are, and then you've got to bring the
market you know with you and your knowledge of the
market with you.
Speaker 4 (11:12):
And it's a.
Speaker 3 (11:14):
Very turnkey like that. A lot start to finish. You know,
whatever somebody needs and everyone's different, and I love that's
the compassionate part of the process that I love is
handholding and making the process easier for the people.
Speaker 1 (11:33):
Keyfront range homes dot com. That's the website, all kinds
of things available here. I mean so many photos you
can see the examples of these staging and it's so
well done.
Speaker 2 (11:41):
It's it's top notch.
Speaker 1 (11:43):
And this can really help move your home if you're
looking to sell as well. And you've hit on an
element Ashley about problem solving, and what I'd like for
you to tell to our listeners here is if there's
a specific example or maybe a broader case, you talk
about the team that you've assembled and how you're able
to get this turnkey process started and finished and every
point in between. But if a story that stands out
(12:05):
about a problem that you were able to solve either
in buying or selling a home serving as somebody's agent.
Speaker 2 (12:11):
It's the one that kind of jumps off the page.
Speaker 4 (12:13):
Oh gosh, I think the one that I mentioned. You know,
they were moving.
Speaker 3 (12:18):
To another state, they moved to Montana and just helping them,
you know, I mean I think they had like six
curio cabinets full of treasures, They had closets full of treasures,
and getting that house sort of moved out of and
then coming in and staging it.
Speaker 4 (12:36):
You know, we did a couple little.
Speaker 3 (12:37):
Bit of painting, and like I said, every house is different,
so you can't treat everyone the same. But I go
in with people and do a pre listing consultation where
I make recommendations on paint colors. A lot of times
you don't need to do things. People think I need
to do all these things. But I like to come
in and say, your carpets don't need to be replaced,
maybe they just need to be cleaned. And if you
(12:59):
switch out a couple of light fixtures, you know, paint
this wall simplify. I mean, everyone is different, so it's
hard for me to focus on one specifically, but it's
that you know, prelisting consultation and then I come in
and pre stage stage and then we do a ton
of pictures. I'm very, very much a perfectionist about the
(13:21):
photography that.
Speaker 2 (13:22):
We yes, it looks like it yeah on the website.
Speaker 4 (13:25):
I've been known to make and I pay for all
the photography.
Speaker 3 (13:27):
I mean it's usually a two thousand dollars investment on
the front end just to get the house photographed video
like good video.
Speaker 4 (13:34):
I do twilight.
Speaker 3 (13:35):
Photos just to put it in the best light. And
it makes a difference. Like I can say, you know,
I've come in for sale by owner listing that wouldn't sell.
They came in listed it with me, and I made
them with paying commissions two hundred thousand dollars more than
what they had it listed for sale by owner.
Speaker 4 (13:52):
And it's just by the photography, the stage eight and.
Speaker 3 (13:55):
Getting the home and perfect show shape where the next
buyer is going to fall in love. And I will
say this market is we'll turn its nose up to
a home that is not in that kind of shape,
that's not clean, that's you know, I wouldn't say it
fix right now, there's good deals to have and fix
the ruppers. From a cellar standpoint, the last listing, you know,
(14:17):
we finished, they had carpet on the stairs. I'm like,
let's do some hardwoods. Twelve hundred bucks done, carpet's clean done.
It was an empty home, so we staged at top
to bottom, and then you've.
Speaker 4 (14:28):
Got to tell the home story.
Speaker 3 (14:30):
You know, this was a in a neighborhood that had
horse properties, so we brought in a lot of horse
artwork and it's sold in three days. So that's not
the overall market response to new listings, but we have
great luck, and it's I think it's doing all those things.
Speaker 1 (14:47):
It is, and what it tells me is that you know,
you go all out, you leave no stone unturned. And
the thing even little things that you were observing right
there and telling to our audience. You know, you're picking
up on those very fine details that the casual eye
might not pick up on. But you do carpeting on
the stairs. I sort of think maybe you don't need
to replace the carpet, you can clean them. So I
think somebody that's again in the experience of being overwhelmed,
(15:10):
they got to sell their home.
Speaker 2 (15:11):
You know, what do I have to do? Where do
I start?
Speaker 1 (15:13):
You're able to kind of maybe calm them down a
little bit and get them to focus on the things
that matter. And especially when you give advice that saves
them a little bit of money here there, they don't
have to necessarily spend you know, X amount, and every
little thing it shows that you're pulling in the same direction.
You're truly looking out for their best interests, right, And
I just.
Speaker 3 (15:31):
Love to have the chance to have those prelistening consultations
because a lot of times, Number one, I can usually
make people more than what they think for their house
more often than not, and then just give them actionable
items for getting their home ready.
Speaker 4 (15:46):
And I love that. I mean, that's Lifsubeby's too.
Speaker 3 (15:49):
That's the expectation is an agent there where turnkey we're
full service white glove.
Speaker 4 (15:54):
We have a lot of support so that we.
Speaker 3 (15:55):
Can take care of our clients with the same level
of care they do a lot for me, so that
I can do a lot for my people.
Speaker 2 (16:02):
So I'm going to have you connect some dots here.
Speaker 1 (16:03):
So if somebody just randomly goes to the website keyfrontrange
homes dot com, what will they find there and how
will you begin that journey with them?
Speaker 3 (16:13):
I just text me send me a text message. My
phone numbers on the website.
Speaker 2 (16:18):
See it.
Speaker 3 (16:19):
I'll tell you no, it's seven two zero five zero
seven four five three nine. Text me and let's just
start the conversation. I'm very low pressure too. I don't
have time to pressure and call people all the time,
and I'm just here to serve. So give me that
opportunity to have that conversation with you. I can show
up at your house with an idea of what I
think we can get even before we get started, and
(16:40):
then having that prelisting consultation and go from there, and
then the timing has to be right for you, so
it will never be a pressure situation.
Speaker 1 (16:48):
You mentioned a couple of times and a couple of
different rights. Don't do the fizzbo for sale by owner
and how that process can improve simply by enlisting your services.
But if there's something other than overall general cleanliness and presentation,
which I know you're big on. Is there a mistake
that a person who is selling their home tends to
make that you've seen recurring that you come in as
(17:09):
an agent and.
Speaker 3 (17:10):
The pricing, Yeah, yeah, a lot of times it's pricing,
you know, it's they don't stage they don't have the
you know, iPhone pictures are not going.
Speaker 4 (17:19):
To cut it.
Speaker 3 (17:20):
That's just going to lower the number of people that
want to see your house. And the goal is to
get as many people in as possible, and the good pictures,
the good staging, creating a good experience makes all the difference.
And I tell people too, like you don't know that
you need a realtor until you need a realtor. Like
you may think, oh, this is easy, and I've seen
it done before and you know, they just put.
Speaker 4 (17:42):
A sign in the yard and they got list price.
But there's so many.
Speaker 3 (17:47):
Things like even from you know, going through the inspection
items I had in a listing. I mean, people ask
for twenty five thousand dollars worth of stuff recently and
I was able to go back and get it down
to a thousand dollars. But you don't no, as a
for sale by owner person whether.
Speaker 4 (18:02):
That should be done or not.
Speaker 3 (18:04):
You you don't really know what you're agreeing to. Getting
through the inspection is really complicated.
Speaker 2 (18:09):
And that's just the tip of the iceberg.
Speaker 4 (18:11):
Good iceberg.
Speaker 1 (18:11):
You can find out more at keyfrontrange homes dot com.
I think Ashley Key joining us live in studio and
Georgia for her special guest appearance as well a time out.
We're back with more after this on Ryan Shuling Live
five seven seven three nine. On the text line, how
about this one, Zach, I plan to start smoking a
(18:32):
pork shoulder tomorrow night at ten pm, so that'll be.
Speaker 2 (18:35):
Nice and ready to eat around three pm on the fourth.
Speaker 1 (18:38):
Oh, whoever, that is well done, sir or mam as
the case, maybe what do you think of that one?
Speaker 2 (18:43):
Zie?
Speaker 1 (18:43):
That sounds like heaven on Earth right there, the pork shoulder,
that's where the pulled pork comes from. I've done that
myself a couple of times. It's fantastic, cannot go wrong.
Back here on Ryan Shuling Live, she's becoming domestic. No,
not Kelly Cachera, not even close. She's a childling like
from Dam of Thrill. But the website she's becoming domestic
(19:05):
dot com. You may have heard me talk about before
with our next guest, Shannesty, Ireland food and lifestyle influencer.
And here just in time, I'm talking nick of time
stuff Shannasty for our Fourth of July, our barbecues, everything
that's going on, last minute ideas, set the people's nerves
at ease.
Speaker 2 (19:23):
What can you recommend?
Speaker 5 (19:26):
I'm so glad you had me on. I love the
fourth of July. It's just kind of the pinnacle of summer.
And if you're being together with your friend's family, or
if you're just even hosting for your small intermediate family,
now is the time to go ahead and start preparing.
I'm talking think of the menu, Think of the people
that are going to be at your barbecue, or they're
(19:46):
going to be kids, there is there going to be
mostly adults, and then really trying to hash it out.
Are you going to ask guests to bring a side dish?
Are you going to ask them to bring a sixteth?
It's not cliche anymore to ask people to bring stuff,
So I think now is the time to prepare. I
love that one person that wrote in and said they're
already marinating and they're ready to go with the pork ar.
(20:08):
Now is the time to go ahead and prepare. I
want to come to that person's barbecue because they know
what's up, and.
Speaker 1 (20:13):
So does Shannessy Ireland. In fact, she's got an article
on her website She's becoming Domestic dot com entitled how
to throw the best Fourth of July Party, easy tips
and festive recipes. Give me something festive, shaannessty Oh, I'm
so glad you asked.
Speaker 5 (20:28):
I love just a confetti pasta salad. I call it
that because it's got to be vibrant. It's got to
have the green cucumbers, the red cherry tomatoes, the red
onion in there. Just really beautiful. I love to use
this with a very light dressing. I just do a
little bit of olive oil, fresh dill, basil, barlic, lemon juice,
(20:50):
and then I put a little bit a tiny bit
of maple syrup in there too. That's going to make
it really light and refreshing. I don't like having the
bottle of Italian dressing. That's okay, you want to do
it that way, but I think it just really makes
the flavors pop. When you have something homemade, that's something
you can prepare.
Speaker 4 (21:06):
Guys.
Speaker 5 (21:07):
Now, you can cut up all of those vegetables and
have them ready to go in your refrigerator, make the
pasa ahead of time, and then just throw the dressing
on when folks arrive. If we're talking about dessert, I
love just the traditional strawberry shortcake with the angel food
cake and the whipped cream and the strawberries and the blueberries.
You cannot go wrong with that. Kids love it, adults
(21:28):
love it. It's nostalgic. It takes us back to our childhood.
That's always my go to for the Fourth of July dessert.
Speaker 1 (21:34):
We're looking forward to that just a couple of days away.
As Shannessty Ireland says, you want to get that prep
in right now, get to the store, get the meats going.
And that's another thing, Shannessty. You know a lot of
times your spread's going to be outdoors, so you want
something some elements you mentioned a couple I think that
are cool and refreshing, and that could be a six pack,
like you said, but also foods that are going to
(21:55):
maintain well, maybe out in the heat a little bit.
There's some environmental concerns and elements especially I'm going back
home to Michigan to be nice and hot and humid there. Well,
how does that factor in maybe the sort of items
that you're planning on presenting.
Speaker 5 (22:08):
Yeah, you want to keep some of those things inside
the house. You want to keep them on the refrigerator
until it's go time. You don't want to have the
watermelon out there roasting all day, it's just going to
be nasty. So just having the cool stuff and the
refrigerator and then being able to bring it out when
the time comes. Maybe when the kids are having the
sparklers and the fireworks are ready to pop, that's a
(22:29):
good time to bring them out. Sometimes I love just
a good old fashioned bomb pop topsicle for the kids
and make that into a cocktail. You can you have
an adult friendly If we're talking about the brands, they
love Rayburn Sandwiches. They have these pork cold pork sandwiches
that are so simple. You just pop them in the
microwave for ninety seconds and I swear nobody's going to
(22:51):
know it came from the frozen food section. It's bakery, soft, fun,
absolutely delicious. So if you don't want to take on
the time and the effort to make your own fork shoulder,
you could always grab something like that that's a little
bit on the simple side.
Speaker 1 (23:05):
Shannisty, is there a story you can share or maybe
a plan that people can make, because you know this
is a unique holiday in a lot of ways, and
that it's almost invariably outdoors, weather permitting. Of course, but
that there are activities, lots of room for activities to
plan and to map out for the kids out there
and everything else.
Speaker 2 (23:23):
How would you say it would be an.
Speaker 1 (23:25):
Effective, you know, short term kind of good way to
plot this out.
Speaker 2 (23:28):
To make sure everybody has a good time.
Speaker 6 (23:31):
Head over to the.
Speaker 5 (23:32):
Dollar tree or the dollar store. You guys may laugh,
but it's going to be outdoors. A lot of these
things are going to probably be tossed right on July
fifth or right after your party, so you don't want
to spend a lot of money on it. They have
so many wonderful decorations. Or to go over to Amazon,
it's not too late if you can get overnight delivery
for the kids. I love water balloons. They make them
(23:53):
so simple now, guys. You just pop it up to
your spickett on your hose and the water balloons just
pop down. The kids absolutely love it. Sidewalkshalt competitions, and
anything to get the kids off the screens and outside
to enjoy. Even those glow sticks, the cheap ones that
you put around your neck, that's a good way to
keep track of your kids when it gets stark and
(24:14):
the fireworks are pulping. Anything like that, Pornold said about
that anything that's going to get everyone outside is just
so fun and festive. As I mentioned, I just love
this holiday because I just think it's the peak of
summer and bringing everybody together. It's just always a great.
Speaker 1 (24:30):
Time bringing everybody together. There's a lot involved in a
Shannessy Ireland. She's got five little ones. That's so fantastic,
a big family in this day and age. You can
find her online at She's becoming domestic dot com and
the article within for Fourth of July it's right there
spelled out for you, even more details than she just
talked about. How to throw the best Fourth of July party,
easy tips and festive recipes. Shannesty, always a good time,
(24:53):
have a great Independence Day holiday.
Speaker 2 (24:55):
We'll talk to you again.
Speaker 5 (24:55):
Soon, okay, I look forward to it. Thanks guys.
Speaker 1 (24:58):
Bite All right, Shannesty Ireland joining us right there, so
your Fourth of July is ready to go. But you
got to hear from the Big Man, the Orange Man,
the Potus, the President of the United States.
Speaker 2 (25:08):
He joins us next on Ryan Shuling Live. Closing out
this edition after this from mtent Hoo. Should note but
this is air conditioned facility, so if any of the
news claims are keeping him out in the hot human
South Florida, that is wrong. It's probably sixty good to
bring here to be one.
Speaker 7 (25:28):
Hey, Biden wanted me in here.
Speaker 2 (25:30):
Okay, he wanted me.
Speaker 6 (25:32):
It didn't work out that way, but he wanted me
in here.
Speaker 1 (25:35):
Et President Trump at Alligator Alcatrez, joking about Joe Biden.
It was air conditioned there, however, and joining us now.
We're happy to be going into our fourth of July
holiday Independence Day on Ryan Shuling Live with your President
of the United States, number forty five and forty seven, Donald Trump,
mister President, thank you for your time.
Speaker 2 (25:53):
As always, Well, we're very happy to be here.
Speaker 6 (25:56):
Was a wonderful trip to Alligator Alcatraz, and we hope
everybody has a very happy and healthy and say fourth
of July. You know, I worked very hard with Thomas
Jefferson to write the Declaration of Independence, and thankfully Thomas
Massey wasn't dead to block it.
Speaker 7 (26:09):
I can tell you that you said.
Speaker 1 (26:12):
Something about Joe Biden there at the end, and you
were trailing off a little bit. Some people say you
called him a son of a b word, and other
people say you called him a son of a goat?
Speaker 2 (26:20):
Which was it?
Speaker 5 (26:22):
Oh?
Speaker 6 (26:22):
No, I definitely called him a son of a B word.
I absolutely did you know that, because that's exactly what
he is. You know, you look at that, and I'm
not afraid to say it. He's called me worse, and
he's called other people very worse things to like a lie,
dog face, pony soldier. He called people very nasty names,
and he did very nasty things to people. So we
(26:42):
called him that because he tried to put me in jail.
You know, we have Alligator alcatrazr. And it's a wonderful place.
We say chomp, chomp, chump, because these gators are very hungry,
right and we have the greatest gaters. Nobody's ever seen
gators like this.
Speaker 7 (26:56):
We have the.
Speaker 6 (26:57):
Greatest and most highly respected gators, Alligator Alcatras.
Speaker 7 (27:01):
You know what we say. You know what the slogan is.
The slogan is where every wan is welcome. You get it,
everyone and no one will be left behind.
Speaker 6 (27:09):
I can tell you that too, including Trende Aragua, which
is out there in your state. Because your fat governor
doesn't know what the hell he's doing or what the
you know what he's doing.
Speaker 7 (27:19):
We said that last week.
Speaker 6 (27:21):
You know it starts with F and with the other
three letters, and it's not firetruck. You know what I'm
talking about. But you look at these alligators. These are
tremendous alligators with teeth bigger than Kathy hokals teeth. You
know her, the bucktooth Botox bandit of Buffalo.
Speaker 8 (27:38):
In New York.
Speaker 7 (27:39):
She's horrible.
Speaker 6 (27:40):
And I'm used to handling these bloodthirsty reptiles like Nancy
Pelosi and Crooked Hillary Clitter. Unlike them, these alligators actually
keep their teeth in them out. It's a tremendous facility.
We love alligator alcatras.
Speaker 7 (27:53):
And every one is welcome.
Speaker 1 (27:55):
Believe me, mister President, appreciate his time joining us here
on Ryan Schuling Knife. There seemed to be the talking
points handed out about alligator alcatraz.
Speaker 2 (28:03):
I'll get to a couple of those real quick.
Speaker 1 (28:05):
Right here, here's Representative Angie Nixon, Democrat Florida, saying that
what you're building down there, mister President, is more like
a quote modern day concentration camp.
Speaker 5 (28:14):
Florida State Representative Angie Nixon, she is a Democrat. Representative Nixon,
thanks for being with us and just tell us your
reaction to what you saw on her today from President
Trump's visit to your state.
Speaker 4 (28:25):
Yeah, so this isn't about safety. This is actually about
Donald Trump building modern.
Speaker 3 (28:30):
Day concentration camps in an effort to disappear people from
our communities.
Speaker 1 (28:36):
Jerry Reid seemed to be handing the same list of
talking points.
Speaker 4 (28:41):
I had to forget about him. But Rod DeSantis is
still governor of Florida.
Speaker 5 (28:44):
He took the Comfy Couch hosts on a tour of
the concentration camp that he's building in Florida.
Speaker 2 (28:51):
Is it a concentration camp, mister president.
Speaker 7 (28:56):
No, it's not a concentration camp. No. No.
Speaker 6 (29:00):
Beautiful, by the way, it's a waterfront facility with.
Speaker 7 (29:02):
A beautiful view of wildlife.
Speaker 6 (29:04):
These are some of the most majestic creatures the world
has ever seen. You know, they've outlasted millions.
Speaker 7 (29:10):
And millions of years.
Speaker 6 (29:11):
They're almost at the top. You know, I'm the expredator,
but they're almost at the top. But they've lasted millions
and millions of years, and nowhere else do you get
to get these close to these beautiful animals. They're beautiful animals.
I'm like, you know, you have disgusting animals like Rosieodda. No,
these are beautiful animals, and you're going to get very
close to them. You know what I'm thinking of doing.
(29:33):
I think this is a tremendous idea. We're going to
issue what's called the Alligator alcatraans challenge. If you already
illegal alien house that alligator alcatrads and you escape and
you survive, you get citizenship. I don't encourage you try it,
but I think it's a wonderful thing to offer.
Speaker 7 (29:51):
It's not a concentration camp.
Speaker 6 (29:53):
Think of it as a beautiful waterfront resort with beautiful animals.
It's like a modern day Jurassic Park, except we don't.
Speaker 7 (30:00):
Want the dinosaurs to eat you. We don't want that.
We want you to be safe and happy.
Speaker 6 (30:05):
But if you survive and escape, you get citizenship.
Speaker 2 (30:08):
Another version of survivor.
Speaker 1 (30:09):
Right there, President Trump joining us now, your very good friend,
crying Chuck Schumer. He just didn't like the name of
your one big, beautiful bill, so he did this.
Speaker 2 (30:18):
Mister President.
Speaker 8 (30:19):
I raise a point of order against page one, lines
three to five of the pending amendment, which violates Section
three point thirteen B one A of the Congressional Budget
Act of nineteen seventy four.
Speaker 2 (30:34):
The point of order is sustained, the text will be stricken.
Speaker 1 (30:39):
Will you ever recover from that, mister President Chuck Schumer
taking the name one Big Beautiful Bill off of the
one Big Beautiful Bill.
Speaker 6 (30:46):
Well, you know what, he could do whatever the early wants.
He's a Palestinian senator, you know that. And he loves
the new mayor of New York City zurrun right. The
Manhattan Marxists. We call him terrible guy too, Mom, Danny.
And if he breaks the law, we're going to put
him in jail. But Palestinian Chuck, you know he wants
(31:06):
to take the name off. He's got nothing better to do.
He's got nothing better to do besides cooking hamburgers and
putting the cheese on the roller burger?
Speaker 7 (31:14):
Do you see that from less of these people don't
know what the hell they're doing.
Speaker 6 (31:17):
This guy is a complete and total disaster. And if
he wears his glasses further down his nose, they're going
to fall right off. This guy's a I will tell
you what. He's got nothing better to do. He ought
to be ashamed of himself, and he ought to be
in the streets screaming free Palestine. What a stupid person
he is, Chuck Schumer, He's an absolutely stupid person.
Speaker 1 (31:38):
Finally, mister President, there has been this goal of getting
the one big, beautiful bill to your desk by Independence Day,
by July fourth. Here we are on July second. It's
gone through the Senate, some revisions back to the House.
There are some holdouts. Are you optimistic that you'll be
able to sign this on July fourth?
Speaker 7 (31:56):
We're going to get this bill done. We're going to
get it done.
Speaker 6 (32:00):
We have a grandstanding buffoon, Thomas Massey, who voted to
increase the debt ceiling under Biden. He voted to suspend
the debt ceiling under Biden. He was the deciding vote
with the Fiscal Responsibility Act of twenty twenty three in
the House Rules Committee.
Speaker 7 (32:16):
He ought to be ashamed, and you know what else
he ought to be ashamed of.
Speaker 6 (32:20):
His haircut looks like undercooked Linguini.
Speaker 7 (32:23):
It's a disgrace. He ought to do better, He ought
to do a much better job. But he's going to
grandstand that he's going to block the bill.
Speaker 6 (32:30):
If he was around when I wrote the beautiful Declaration
of Independence with Thomas Jefferson.
Speaker 7 (32:34):
You know, Tommy was a great guy.
Speaker 6 (32:36):
Jefferson, fantastic person.
Speaker 7 (32:38):
We got along very well together.
Speaker 6 (32:40):
Massey would have blocked that too.
Speaker 7 (32:41):
What are stupid? But we're going to be able to
do it. We're going to.
Speaker 6 (32:44):
Pass it, and we're going to pass it with flying colors.
We're going to pass it big, we're going to pass
it beautiful, and we're going to have a wonderful July fourth,
the two hundred and forty ninth birthday of our country,
and next year the two hundred and fiftieth birthday of
our country.
Speaker 7 (32:58):
We're going to pass that bill, very optimistic.
Speaker 6 (33:01):
And we're going to get tax cuts, being beautiful tax
cuts for the American people.
Speaker 1 (33:05):
Mister President, final question if that does happen, and you
seem to be optimistic that it will. As a president
of the United States ever had a better week than
you've had. When you go back to last week and
the military strikes on Iran, the peace deals that you're
striking in Africa, the trade deal that you just made
with Vietnam, you're on fire.
Speaker 7 (33:25):
Nobody's had a better week.
Speaker 6 (33:27):
You know, you look at the trade deals in Africa,
Believe it or not, I bless the rains down in Africa.
Speaker 7 (33:31):
I went down there. I said, it's going to take
a lot to drag me away from you.
Speaker 6 (33:35):
They said, sir, there's nothing that a hundred minute more
could ever do.
Speaker 7 (33:38):
We started singing, we had a deal. We did a
tremendous job. In Iran.
Speaker 6 (33:43):
We dropped you know that Stacy Abrams on the four
down nuclear facility, and she was whistling all.
Speaker 7 (33:49):
The way down with that gap.
Speaker 6 (33:50):
Between the teacher, she was whistling all the way down.
Speaker 7 (33:52):
She made a beautiful impact.
Speaker 6 (33:54):
She obliterated it like a toilet bowl after pizzat.
Speaker 7 (33:57):
You know what I'm talking about. We did it.
Speaker 6 (34:00):
Fantastic job. With China, we've got a deal. Vietnam, we
got a deal. Israel and Gaza, we've got a deal,
the Supreme Court said, the District Court's cantonationwide injunctions. We're
winning like nobody has ever seen before. Nobody has ever
seen it. You look at the Miami Dolphins, Don Shula,
they were undefeated, and even they didn't win as much.
Speaker 7 (34:21):
As I won.
Speaker 6 (34:22):
So we're doing so well. We're doing so well. We're
having a golden age. It's coming into our country. We're
bringing it in. It starts today and it's going to
continue for a very long time.
Speaker 1 (34:32):
That much I can tell you, mister President. Great stuff.
As always, we're so thankful for your time. Have a
wonderful Independence Day holiday, and let's hope that big, beautiful
bill gets signed into law.
Speaker 7 (34:42):
It's going to happen.
Speaker 6 (34:43):
Thank you so much. You're a fantastic guy. And remember,
don't quit your day job.
Speaker 1 (34:46):
I mean, do a tremendous show, mister President Donald Trump.
