Skunks, White Pants, and 1% Better: Navigating a Shaky Real Estate Market

From an avocado-eating skunk standoff to a special ops mission in a crawlspace, we're sharing our wildest real estate stories. But we're also getting real about the current housing market. This episode is packed with concrete numbers you'll want to hear, including:

• Why 35% of major U.S. markets are seeing a decline in value year-over-year, while Southern California remains relatively stable.

• The difference between the 14,000 homes listed in Orange County in 2007 versus the 5,000 listed today.

• How the 10-year treasury rate of 4.22% influences today's mortgage rates.

• The argument that waiting for interest rates to drop could cost you years of appreciation.

But beyond the numbers, we’re talking about the mental game of real estate. We dive into how to deal with the pressure of a shifting market, why you shouldn't "play the victim," and the power of getting just 1% better every day. You'll hear us discuss how to reframe stress as a positive tool for growth, and how a challenge in one part of your life can prepare you for another.
