    Episode 139: Steve Eakins

    Today's guest is the Key Partner Director at Lumon. In this conversation, we discuss currency exchange and the impact it can have on the business of an estate agent. From understanding how currency exchange works for the benefit of buyers and sellers, putting more deals together, potential additional revenue streams, and ultimately improving the revenue and profit of an estate agency. This is a different episode to usual and had lots of valuable information that was completely new to me and I genuinely think could be incredibly impactful for the estate agents that take action from what they learn in this chat.
