    Breaking Barriers in Real Estate: How to Make Your Listings Accessible to All w/ Kathleen Lappe

    A lot of people are locked out of homeownership because the actual listings aren’t accessible to everyone. For disabled, impaired, neurodivergent and non-English speaking buyers, not having an audio option creates a massive barrier right from the home search stage.   What if the listing could be presented in a language and format they can easily consume?  The most valuable real estate agents understand the importance of being of service to EVERYONE.  In order to do this and expand our opportunities across any barrier or language, we have to make sure the information on the listing is packaged for a diverse array of people.  That’s where DirectOffer comes in. This tool leverages AI to bring accessibility to real estate information.

    Every Real Estate Agent is Starting from Scratch…Here’s Why

    Since the NAR settlement came into effect, every real estate professional is at day one, ground zero. Even if you’ve been in the industry for decades, gone through hundreds of disruptions, or sold a billion dollars of real estate.  We’re grappling with a whole new way of doing business and many people are having a hard time.  Even if you’re an agent in a state that already had mandated buyer-broker agreements, no one in the world of residential real estate is at an advantage right now.  But we can gain the advantage by making a few small mindset shifts. We have to realize why we have an issue with buyer-broker agreements. We don’t know how to ask for what we’re worth, so we’d rather avoid the subject altogether.  In this new landscape, not articulating our value is laziness, high-level stupidity and bad service. It’s also a risk to our real estate licenses.  How do we navigate the settlement so it benefits everyone? In this episode, I share the traps many buyer’s agents are walking into and how to set yourself up for success.    We’re all at day one ground zero. No one in residential real estate has an advantage right now. -Marki Lemons Ryhal   Things You’ll Learn In This Episode  Think like a commercial real estate agent  In commercial real estate, an agent won’t start the work until certain agreements and documents are in place. How do we bring this energy to the residential side?  Don’t fall into laziness and high level stupidity  A listing agent wouldn’t let their seller walk away from getting all the terms they want. How do we give the same undivided loyalty to our clients as buyer agents?  The value articulation problem Many real estate agents are having a hard time with the idea of signing a buyer-broker agreement. Is the real issue not being able to ask for what we’re worth?    About Your Host ​​Licensed Managing Broker, REALTORS®, avid volunteer, and Major Donor, Marki Lemons Ryhal is dedicated to all things real estate.

    The Confidentiality Dilemma: How to Avoid a Costly Real Estate Mistakes

    When you work with a buyer, you owe them confidentiality. It’s a fundamental responsibility as their agent. Yet, some agents are asking to see confidential documents, pushing you into a tricky situation.  Have you ever been asked for a buyer representation agreement by a listing agent?  The moment you comply with one agent's request, you’re setting a precedent. To avoid the appearance of discrimination, you may feel compelled to provide this confidential document to every agent, creating a breach in the trust and confidentiality that your client expects. The solution lies in never compromising confidentiality. By strictly adhering to the executed buyer representation agreement, you protect your buyer’s interests and avoid the slippery slope of breaching confidentiality. In this episode, I talk about handling clients with confidentiality, the repercussions of violating confidentiality and why it's important to know the rules and regulations of your license.    If you work with a buyer, you owe them confidentiality. -Marki Lemons Ryhal   Things You’ll Learn In This Episode  Treating buyers and buyers agents better Buyers and their agents play a crucial role in funding real estate transactions and should be treated with equal respect and importance. How can treating buyers and their agents with more respect improve the overall success of a real estate transaction? Cooperation does not equal compensation In real estate, cooperating with other agents or parties doesn't guarantee financial compensation unless specific terms are agreed upon. What can we do to ensure we don't end up being an uncompensated agent? Regulation responsibility It's the responsibility of real estate professionals to stay informed about regulatory changes, as the state won't provide direct notifications. How do you ensure you're staying updated on evolving real estate regulations in your area?   Check out this episode on our website, Apple Podcasts, or Spotify, and don't forget to leave a review if you like what you heard.

    How To Adapt To The Post-NAR Settlement Landscape and Win

    Whether agents like it or not, the NAR settlement is in place, and no compensation will be offered via the MLS. As a buyer agent, you need written compensation confirmation before your client enters into an executed sales contract. With the new guidelines, agents wonder how to structure their compensation. The traditional route of looking in the MLS and accepting what is presented as cooperating compensation is now off the table, which means many agents are feeling pressure on how they will be compensated when providing service to a buyer. How will this affect income and the ability to attract clients? What other challenges come with the guidelines Here's where the buyer representation agreement comes into play. While you cannot negotiate compensation through the sales contract, your buyers can strike the lack of compensation to offset their contractual obligations. This simple yet effective strategy allows you to regain control over compensation discussions and ensures that both parties are on the same page. In this episode, I talk about what this relatively new change means for the real estate industry and what you can do if you have a signed buyer representation agreement with an offer of compensation.   If you cannot demonstrate your value then you’re going to have a problem. -Marki Lemons Ryhal   Things You’ll Learn In This Episode  Better compliance in real estate As of August 17, 2024, MLSs will no longer display broker compensation offers. How does this change promote greater compliance and accountability in real estate transactions? Stay out of hot water Under the new settlement practice changes, offering or communicating broker compensation through the MLS is prohibited. Why is it essential to remain compliant and avoid workarounds that could lead to legal trouble? Putting clients first Prioritizing clients' needs and wants over personal interests builds trust and loyalty, as clients feel valued and understood. How does consistently putting clients first strengthen long-term relationships in the real estate industry?   About Your Host ​​Licensed Managing Broker, REALTORS®, avid volunteer, and Major Donor, Marki Lemons Ryhal is dedicated to all things real estate.

    Here’s a shocking reality many people aren’t aware of. Being a real estate professional ranks among the top 10 most dangerous jobs in America. 30,000 agents were victims of violent crimes in the past year.  Every day, real estate agents put themselves at risk while performing what should be a routine job—showing properties, meeting clients, and navigating unfamiliar neighborhoods.  The statistics reveal that agents face high incidents of harassment, threats, and even violence simply for doing their jobs.

What are some of these risks and how can we look out for them?   -Crime isn’t going to go away Crime is on the rise and is not going to go away. How do we prepare ourselves to combat it?

    How To Unlock Homeownership For Underserved Communities w/Bryan Young

    Homeownership is an important part of economically empowering people. Even though efforts have been made to level the playing field, underserved communities still face significant barriers in the buying market.  Equal access alone doesn't translate into equal opportunity, especially when race, religious beliefs, and language continue to influence the experiences of potential buyers.  This means marginalized communities remain on the sidelines, lacking the right tools and education to confidently step into ownership. What can be done to help people in these communities prepare to buy? What tools can we use for education when it comes to credit and buying? Can we leverage AI to translate to all potential buyers? CEO of Home Lending Pal, Bryan Young joins me to talk about the struggles underserved communities face when it comes to home-buying and how we can solve them.    Equal access doesn’t necessarily mean equal opportunity. -Bryan Young   Things You’ll Learn In This Episode  -Go from transactional to relationship based Shifting from a transactional approach to a relationship-based fosters trust and loyalty. How can focusing on building relationships rather than just transactions lead to meaningful success? -Doing things differently Adapting our approach is crucial when current methods aren't closing the gap. How can we recognize when it's time to pivot and try a new strategy? -AI is a pathway to significant impact. AI is a powerful tool for creating significant impact while also driving revenue growth. How can we use it to make a real difference for underserved communities? Guest Bio Bryan Young has a track record of success as an entrepreneur and in corporate America. At 24, he was recognized by both Bloomberg and Ernst and Young as a top entrepreneur under the age of 40 for launching and building the BEC agency.
