The Cost of Dishonesty, Getting Recruited & Truth in Real Estate | Podcast #95

What happens when your agent tells you what you want to hear instead of what you need to know? This episode dives into the cost of dishonesty in real estate—from agents who smooth things over to clients who avoid tough truths. We talk about getting recruited by a larger brokerage, how being honest won a listing, and what’s happening in Longmont’s single-family and Prospect markets. Plus: Kanye sells his Wyoming ranch, a Denver development boondoggle, and a look at the latest Case-Shiller data. This podcast is supported by the House Einstein real estate brokerage, founded and based in Boulder, Colorado. House Einstein’s mission is to help you make a smarter real estate decision.
