The real estate market has shifted. What once was standard is no longer the norm. Whether you're buying your first home or selling one filled with memories, the landscape in 2025 is different—and the financial stakes are higher than ever.
In this episode, we’re joined by Peter Felis, a real estate expert with 22 years of experience at Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Utah Properties. Peter offers clear, honest insight into the current market—what’s changed, what to expect, and how buyers and sellers can make smart, educated decisions without ending up house poor.
