A Buyer's Agent Is More Than Someone Who Opens the Door | John Lee Real Estate (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Anybody can open a door. So if that's all your buyer's agent is doing, I understand why you'd wonder what you're actually paying for. In this episode, I want to talk about something I've noticed over the years being on both sides of transactions. A lot of us as agents show up to showings unprepared. I walk through what I think should happen before you ever get to the house: reading the seller's disclosure, checking the agent remarks, and calling the listing agent with a few simple questions. One
Is Your Zestimate Accurate? What Zillow Can't See (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Be honest. How many times have you pulled up Zillow and typed in your own address? I'm not here to bash Zillow. I want you checking it. But when you're making a decision about your house, that number needs context. In this episode, I explain what a Zestimate can tell you, what it can miss, and how I think through a home's value with my clients. Why condition, renovations, layout, and the lot matter. What the story behind a comparable sale tells you. How concessions and time on the market change

The ONE Thing: How I Stopped Using Work as an Excuse (opens the original)
Read excerpt
If somebody looked at your calendar, your phone, and where your best energy went last week, would they be able to tell what actually matters to you? I have always said my family is the most important part of my life. For a long stretch, my actions were telling a different story. Work was not creating freedom for us. Work was competing with us, and I was using my family as the reason I kept choosing work. In this episode I break down The ONE Thing by Gary Keller and Jay Papasan, but not as a prod
Buy a Home in 2026 or Wait? Start With Your Payment (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I'm a Realtor. That doesn't mean I think it's always a good time for you to buy a house. If you're waiting for prices to crash and mortgage rates to drop at the same time, let's talk through what you're actually waiting for. In this episode, I look at the decision through your monthly payment, your timeline, your job stability, and why you want to buy. What a lower interest rate would change about your payment. How a change in home prices can affect the benefit of waiting. Why your own situation
