Your Niagara Real Estate Podcast

Season 3 is here! We take a look back at how wrong our 2023 predictions were, dig up some dirt and then move forward with our goals and thoughts heading into 2024. We hope you dig it. :)

Mentioned in pod:

Rodrigo Robalino, Realtor & Team Leader with the Journii Real Estate Team in Toronto.

Dez Tsourpi, Realtor with Remax Masters Realty in West Vancouver.

Our pals Emily Barry (The Barry Team from Revel Realty) and Jason Jacobs (Home Team Realty Group from Royal Lepage State Realty) join us for a good ol' fashioned round table discussion of yet another entertaining year in Niagara real estate.

This was so much fun...we hope you enjoy!

Known as the 'SOP Offer', they are often far more complicated than people think.

The market conditions will determine how much you see them and here towards the end of 2023, we are knee-deep in SOP!

Enjoy the show & as always, thanks for tuning in. :)

A slow moving real estate market requires a change in the mental approach of both the seller or buyer as well as the Realtors involved. Here in the molasses market of October 2023, the mental wear & tear is real. So, let's talk about it.

We had a little summer break so its time to get caught up on all things Niagara real estate.

From prices to over ambitious sellers, mortgage rates and mental health...it's all up for discussion on this one.

In another episode where we discover how much we don't know, Eric Cleary, Realtor, joins us to talk about rentals, landlord tenancy, conversions, density intensification, and all things real estate.

This is a great one whether you're a landlord or thinking about getting into real estate investing.

Neil Thornton always brings a trunk load of insight & big picture ideas to any conversation so we were thrilled we could trick him into spending an hour with us in the podcast studio.

QUICK SHOT! In this episode, Statrick has a dig into the restaurant analogy and how it relates to running any business.

Are you a transactional business or relational? The choice really is yours and the results will vary.

Hope you enjoy listening. :)

We cover the basics in what has been deemed to be part 1 of our chat with Lana Sgambelluri, Partner with Sullivan Mahoney Law Firm in the Niagara Region.

From deposits to ownership structure, failed closings and all things in between. We hope you enjoy it. :)

Sometimes it's the smart move to make. Other times, it's less smart. It'll depend on market conditions and the granular realities of what's going on out there. Have a listen to another You Niagara Real Estate Podcast QUICK SHOT! :)

In a twist on our normal podcast, we introduce Quick Shots. A quick, focussed discussion on a particular topic where we dig into it, and only that.

We hope you enjoy it!

The 2023 market has been a mixed bag so far. Lemons, apples and tennis balls are all in the statistical basket so far. What will happen next? No one really knows...but we're here to offer our best guess and thoughts of what to expect for real estate here in Niagara.

We had our counterparts join us for our latest episode. We talked new builds, development and all the challenges along the way of turning dirt into a community. Jim & Terence have extensive experience in the world of new builds...we hope you enjoy!

We open up the emotional vault a bit on this one to talk about the physical and mental impacts of (perceived) failure. The ability to get back up and keep going, looking big picture and persistence are all on the agenda. 

We had the wizard of sales learning himself, Sean Allen, in for this episode. A partner with Hanover Learning, this guy has decades of experience in sales and what it takes to succeed on a human level. We hope you enjoy!

Ask most Realtors and they'll likely share a mix of optimism and dread at the beginning of any new year. Wiping off the dry erase boards and starting fresh, the classic "what if I don't sell any houses this year!?" thoughts start to creep in. 

In our kick-off to Season 2, we share some of our thoughts and strategies around the concept. 

Complete with our first battle, this is a fun one. We have a look back at what will go down as an epic year that packed more twists & turns than we've seen in 20 years of real estate. 

...oh, and don't ever tell Shawn that next year is going to be boring. 

Our Team Partners finally show up to talk about the evolution of real estate teams and what has made THEbTEAM and The Davids & DeLaat Team work all these years. 

...even better, they play a game. 

Hope you enjoy it. :)
