The Brad Weisman Show Brad Weisman, Realtor

When you hear the name Michele McCartney, you might picture an industry veteran, who's navigated the real estate market with a finesse that only comes from years of experience.  What you might not expect is her enthusiasm for deep connections and personalized communication that has reshaped how we think about business interaction.  In this episode, I'm thrilled to bring you an intimate conversation with Michele, where she spills the beans on her 'special sauce' for success since 1988 – a blend of trust, fun, and relationships that turns clients into lifelong friends... and referrals!

Have you ever felt the frustration of cold, scripted sales calls that miss the mark? Michelle and I break down the walls of conventional communication, sharing insights on the magic that happens when you tune into the art of active listening and genuine connections.  We swap stories and laughs about the stark difference between being a Master Connector and a Master Communicator, with Michele explaining through her course, "Beyond the Script", how deviating from the norm can revolutionize your approach and results.

This episode concludes with a candid reflection on the subtle yet powerful force of service and taking action.  We celebrate the unexpected success born from simply showing up and doing the work.  Whether you're in real estate or any other field where customer relationships are key, join us for a hearty discussion that promises to leave you motivated and ready to forge deeper, more meaningful connections.

"With social media, emails, texting and very little time face to face, learning to Connect is more important than ever.  In this episode, Michele McCartney, shares her secrets to connecting with people, regardless if they are a customer or not.  Go "beyond the script" and truly listen to your customers.  She's one of the best at this.  Don't miss it!"  - Brad Weisman

Imagine your grocery bill and your house operating on the same economic rollercoaster. Surprised? So were we.  Join Pete and me for an enthralling conversation where we explore the similarities between the fluctuating costs of everyday items and the soaring prices in the housing market.  As we peel back the layers, you'll discover how a recent slip in interest rates has reignited buyer enthusiasm and what this means for showing activity.  It's a wild ride through the real estate landscape, where we're uncovering not just trends, but the excitement brewing among buyers ready to leap back into the market as conditions evolve.

Now, let's talk about the great migration—not birds, but people flocking to Florida and often boomeranging back for the warmth of family ties.  We dissect this pattern and its emotional undertones, providing an intimate look at what drives the decision to move and, sometimes, move back.  We'll also navigate through the maze of housing market predictions, from expert forecasts to the challenges of affordability and inventory shortages.  To cap it off, we marvel at the historical data that showcases a staggering national appreciation rate, painting a picture of why real estate remains one of the most robust investments over time. Tune in for a session packed with insights, and maybe even find a new perspective on your next home, or grocery, investment. #realestatemarket #peteheim #bradweisman #housingmarket

"The Housing Inventory Shortfall is here to stay, so don't wait for it to change.  Jump into this market sooner than later and you'll be looking at prices a year from now thankful that you did" - Brad Weisman

When Tyler Boland set out to preserve the stories of World War II heroes like his great-grandfather, he found an incredible friend in 99-year-old veteran, Matt Gutman.  Their bond takes center stage as Matt, shares memories of his service, steering a Higgins boat through enemy fire.  Feel the weight of history as Matt's voice bridges the years, bringing to life tales of survival and duty that are as much a part of him as the air he breathes.  His anecdotes provide a candid look into the sacrifices made and the daring spirit of those who served.

Venture into the heart of warfare with Matt's riveting first-hand account of his voluntary enlistment in the Navy and the daring operations as a Higgins boat driver during the most pivotal moments of the Pacific theater.  The courage in his blood, a gift from his immigrant parents, led him to face perilous beach landings and a harrowing night in a foxhole, clutching only a knife and a grenade.  The history that Matt carries is made tangible through a samurai sword, an heirloom echoing the legacy of conflict and the honor of military service that we are given a rare chance to explore.

With every story recounted, gratitude for the bravery of veterans like Matt Gutman resonates deeply.  Acknowledging the remarkable lives of these individuals extends beyond mere appreciation; it's a celebration of their indelible mark on our world.  As we conclude, we're reminded that the wisdom and valor shared by veterans remain as timeless as the memories they entrust to us.  Join us for more unforgettable narratives that continue to shape our present and enlighten our future.
