In the real estate market, the relationship between a buyer or seller and a real estate agent is rooted in trust. This trust is vital; after all, buying or selling a home is often the most significant financial decision many individuals will make in their lifetime. Given the magnitude of this relationship, it becomes crucial to ensure that the real estate professionals we depend upon uphold the highest standards of ethical and professional conduct. This is where the National Association of Realtors (NAR) comes into play.

Welcome to the Fat to Fit Realtor's Real Estate Update podcast, where we bring you the latest insights into the ever-changing market. In today's episode, we delve into an important report from UBS that sheds light on Wall Street's outlook and the potential impact on the real estate industry.

UBS, a prominent investment bank, argues that despite recent market rallies in the Dow, S&P 500, and Nasdaq Composite, we are still on track for a hard landing. They anticipate an economic contraction of approximately 1% peak to trough in real GDP, starting next quarter, which will have ripple...

Reason 1 - 

Here is a story that explains a seller's market versus a Santa Clarita home buyers' market: 

Once upon a time, in the picturesque city of Santa Clarita, there were two families: the Thompsons and the Garcias. The Thompsons had been living in their spacious home for many years and decided it was time to downsize and enjoy their retirement. The Garcias, a young couple with a growing family, had been searching for their dream home and were excited about settling down in Santa Clarita.

One sunny morning, the Thompsons put their house on the market. L...

Once upon a time, there was a remarkable realtor named Connor, affectionately known as the "Fat to Fit Realtor." Connor had always possessed a deep passion for the world of real estate, but one obstacle seemed to hinder their potential: their weight. For years, Connor struggled with self-doubt and a lack of confidence, believing that their physical appearance would hold them back from achieving success in their career.

However, deep within Connor's heart, a flame of determination flickered. They decided to embark on an incredible journey of transformation that would reshape their body, mindset, and spirit. With...

When I fast for long periods of time, people often wonder how I have such great energy. How I am going to the gym and how I keep up my high intensity workouts. IT's simple, I'm eating even if I'm not eating incoming food. I'm eating my own fat for fuel, and your body knows how to do that very well. The only reason we don't do it is because we are so well fed, our bodies never get the chance to access our stored fuel for energy.

My Fat to Fit Realtor concept fits well within real estate. Why do you only take care of your body and let your home go? or is it both that are in shambles.

The same applies to your home. You need to keep...

I'm the Fat to Fit realtor and I have a job to do. That is to sell your home, represent you as a buyer or real estate investor - and to be true to myself and help you if you want to become healthy.

Of course, not necessarily in that order. There are a lot of people who are in the "talking" sphere that sound like sage advisors - but most are just smoke and mirrors.

Ask them what they have done?

It's not rocket science, however - with all of the guessing and estimations being publicized online and within the TV sphere, I see some interesting things happening.

Some of the portals are saying now is the best time to buy and the best time to sell.  That could be true, but it's not without some clarification.

How is the Santa Clarita real estate market? What about Los Angeles? Simi Valley? What changes have come into the real estate market as of late?

There have been a few, but here is the most impactful.

For various reasons, home buyers are now slowing down their approaches to buying homes. It is a direct result of "schools" coming back into session. The higher interest rates and the number of choices that exist in the real estate market.

Each of these events is typical in a real estate market. Simply stated, the market...

What is a buyer's advantage in a home seller's market?

That would have to do with some of the "offered" options that a home buyer may get when asking a home seller via their agents. In some cases, upfront negotiation, when working with a true real estate professional, can equate to a home buyer getting closing costs paid or maybe some of the seller's personal items included in the sale at no additional cost. Some of the biggest issues in today's market is the removal of contingencies for the home buyer right out of the...

If you are interested in the market performance, you will see that we have been adding to our local inventory. In fact, as we add more homes to the saleable inventory - we see that the buyers are still present, but not in the numbers that we had seen even back in March/April.

I have been selling homes since 1998 and I will tell you that the real estate market hasn't been funkier. This means, that there are so many micro changes that are affecting the market as a whole.

While we are not getting into the dangers of overbuilding, we are seeing interest rates rise, inventory starting to build, and the buyer drives starting to slow down as a result.

This differs from the previous market where we had so many offers on real estate listings in very short order.

What is it with real estate that has everyone confused and why does that matter when it comes to you buying or selling a home? The first place you need to look is to establish what place you are in the real estate game. Are you a seller, prospective seller, or home buyer?

Either way, make sure you are hiring the best advisor in real estate possible. Look for someone who has a great...

There are a lot of explanations when it comes to making the right versus wrong decisions in your real estate dealings. You will want to reevaluate if you happen to be using the same agent the seller hired to represent them. No pushback and no other arguments. This is something that you will want to consider. It's hard to find a real estate agent with multiple personalities who are not unstable and who is able to use those different personas to balance back and forth between two very different parties.

Interest rates - in order to off set inflation - that is the reason right? Interest rates have been historically low for a long while. I remember when I bought my first home the interest rate was 16% - to see them sub three and to have that now, incredible.
