A single software change can ripple through an entire industry, and that’s exactly why we open with the Spectora Fixel blowup. When an ad appears before a client can download an inspection report, the immediate question isn’t “is it optional?” It’s “who owns the client relationship?” We talk through why inspectors reacted so strongly, how conflict-of-interest fears spread fast, and why platform trust is hard to rebuild once the “snake bite” moment happens.

From there we shift into our Q2 2026 housing market outlook for home inspectors, using the term many major outlets are leaning on: the Great Housing Reset. We explain what “reset” really means in practice, why it looks like a transition rather than a crash, and what the current numbers suggest. Mortgage rates are hovering roughly between 6.0% and 6.4%, inventory is up year over year, and the lock-in effect is finally weakening as homeowners list for job changes, family changes, and life realities. At the same time, home price growth has cooled, wages are gradually catching up, and affordability metrics are starting to look less extreme than they did in the past few years.

We also dig into the weirdness around real estate agents, brokers, and data visibility after the NAR settlement era, including signs that more transactions may be happening with less obvious MLS visibility. For inspectors, we connect those trends to real opportunities: more back-on-market cycles can mean more inspection work, and the $500K to $900K home segment may be one of the hottest targets this year with different buyer motivations and less rate sensitivity.

Ian Robertson 
Welcome back to the show, Beon, how are you?

Beon DeNood 
Hey, thanks Ian, doing good. How are you?

Ian Robertson 
Not bad. You know, it's good to talk to you about something else besides code and features and what's next on the app and stuff like that, and actually sit down and talk about stuff.

Beon DeNood 
Yeah, yeah. It is a nice break. We should make more time to just like, have a podcast conversation without being recorded and being viewed by hundreds of 1000s of people, you know.

Ian Robertson 
Or we could just talk about how bad the Red Sox are doing, like, it's It's brutal. No offense to Red Sox fans, should I not mention that? I can see your face.

Beon DeNood 
I'm not vested in the Red Sox at all. But you know, if anybody is, that's a very..so here's a short story. I used to work in Boston a lot, like all along the 495 corridors, so you know, to all our inspectors in Massachusetts. But I was a New Yorker at the time, you know. So I would go over and I knew, okay, I knew something about the the Yankee/Red Sox rivalry and all its history and everything. But, man, I had no idea how serious these guys were about their sports out there. I mean, it's kind of like, it's religious, you know, it's quite something to observe. And the one time I went out, I made the mistake of wearing my Yankee hat.

Ian Robertson 
Oh no, you didn't.

Beon DeNood 
Oh man, I did. And I've never quite recovered, you know, from that misstep. So, yeah, Red Sox fans are very passionate. I love passion. I love the sport. You know, I'm not like crazy into, I love the sport for what it is.

Ian Robertson 
You like cricket.

Beon DeNood 
Cricket, I grew up playing cricket, yeah, so I had to learn baseball when I came here.

Ian Robertson 
Baseball is just better cricket, Beon.

Beon DeNood 
Yeah, definitely more money in baseball. I'll give it that. Yeah.

Ian Robertson 
It's not like there's a Joe DiMaggio of cricket out there that people are rooting on with their weird puffy pants and flat bat.

Beon DeNood 
Yeah. No. I think they've tried, but there's just not a major league cricket. There's just not enough money in it.

Ian Robertson 
Well, I've successfully alienated all of our Boston Red Sox fans listeners and anybody who likes cricket. So all three people out there that like cricket, besides Beon, I'm sorry for alienating you.

Beon DeNood 
Well, it's one way to get the comments fired up on a video, so we'll definitely get engagement.

Ian Robertson 
But you know, just getting back to normal home inspection subject here, we didn't even post a podcast last week because, holy cow, Spectora's debacle just blew up the internet, I'm like, okay, well, let's let this blow over before we post a podcast about the market outlook because, ooh, man, it was a spicy wing. It was not mild at all.

Beon DeNood 
Yeah, and it's funny, because we've seen this movie many times before in this industry, right? So it was just watching the rerun. And I'll be honest, it was a little surprising, because, like you and I know exactly what's going to happen, but I don't know. I'm not quite sure what the thought process there was, but...

Ian Robertson 
So just a quick recap for anybody that didn't touch the internet for the past week or two, Spectora decided one day that they give a week's notice approximately, if I get anything wrong here, just correct me, that they were going to start putting up an ad, basically for their product called Fixle. So if you're an inspector and you deliver your report from Spectora, there would have been an ad before your client could download the report to sign up for Fixle, which at first kind of sounds benign, but then you realize, well, okay, that's kind of a conflict of interest, because what if it's an insurance or if it's this or that, you know, the people that recommend me, you might have your own list of providers and all that other stuff. Some states, I don't know, but some inspectors claim that it was not allowed in their state. I don't know about that in particular, but it just blew up the internet. And man, a lot of users came over from Spectora, just in the past week or so since this happened. Here's my thing. Beon, you just said we've watched this movie before. It happened with Porch. And Porch said the same thing. Nothing's gonna change. It's gonna be amazing, guys. And then all of a sudden, guys are like, who are these people calling my clients about insurance or whatever else they were calling about? It happened with, I'm not gonna go through the list, it happened with everybody. Spectora did the same thing. They said, we're not going to do the same thing that everybody else has. Reminds me of the story of the snake, though. Boy goes up to the river, and a snake needed to cross, and the boy needed to cross. Snake said, hey, can you bring me across? And the kids like, no, you're gonna bite me. And the snake said, no, I'm not. Finally convinced the kid, the kid brought him across, the snake didn't bite him the whole time. Gently placed the snake on the ground. And as he did, the snake bit him. And the kid said, why did you do that? You said you wouldn't? And he goes, but I'm a snake. It's what I do. I mean, come on, we've been saying it for years. The snake bit, we said it would, it's gonna do it again. So I guess they retracted it somewhat. They made it opt in or opt out, one of those two. But to me, it doesn't matter. It's just like, you just got bit by the snake. And I was surprised at how many inspectors are like, well, I was angry and thinking about leaving, but now I'm just gonna see if the snake bites again. It's like, but at the same time, I think everybody saw the chink in the armor there of the big giant on the board.

Beon DeNood 
Yeah, yeah. And I think it's a tough thing from an inspector point of view. You want to do your job, right? You want to do your job. You want to get your inspections done. You want to be the best that you can be, earn your money, feed your family, right? That's what we're looking for, and you need tools to be able to do that. So, okay, wow, this tool looks pretty good. I'm going to use the tool. We're not going to spend hours combing through all the terms of service and every time that you get a privacy notice update to see what the changes were, etc, etc. And even if you're aware of it, one gets so vested in any particular software platform that trying to move or migrate or think of changing your process is big, you know? So when these things happen, it's upsetting, but I think that those are very real barriers, very real dynamics that one deals with, and no matter what you maybe feel at heart like your own ideals and values, you may feel differently, but some may feel like, I don't, I just can't make the switch, you know? So we're aware of all of these dynamics in the industry. We've been in the industry for a long time. We're actively working to try to do our part to make this better for the whole industry. So we'll see, stay tuned, and see what we got coming up here. But we're working on some new stuff, but it is an interesting thing to see happen, and to anybody who was affected by it, and, you know, lost business because of it, that's too bad. That's a shame.

Ian Robertson 
Yeah. And as Beon mentioned, he was literally just before the show demoing stuff that's coming up with ITB that I got to say, everybody's just like, oh, it'll blow your mind. Everybody says that. This went and blew my mind, and it's our app. Spectora could not have picked a better time, for us anyways. But that being said, let's get to the real subject matter here, because there's two. I mean, we're talking about our Q2 market outlook. The Spectora debacle was what kicked off Q2 so got to cover that. But we're going to talk about a little bit of what's happening in the real estate market, and what is this going to look like for us for home inspectors, and as I mentioned before, this is actually our most listened to episode, typically, is our quarterly outlook episodes. To get into it, I wanted to use the term that is being used by companies like Redfin, realtor.com, NAR, "great housing reset." They're calling it the great housing reset. Basically, what that means is, and not to toot our own horn again, but we called it. We called it back in 2024 where we would be right now. But it doesn't take a genius to do that, because the data is all there. So basically, the great housing reset is not a crash, but it's also not a boom. It's a transition toward a more balanced and slower paced environment. So picture a bell curve. You know? It's like you're shooting upward or you're shooting downward. We're the space in between that right now, which you want. Otherwise it's a roller coaster. Some ups and downs are expected, but you need some plateaus at certain points for things to slow and be okay for a little bit. So this year is already looking better. It already is better, although, for some reason, I forget if it was right off the top of my head, February or March is metrics, and some parts of the US and Canada were just garbage. They were just poo poo. But overall the year is looking good. So first of all, mortgage rates hovering between 6% and 6.4% as of April 8. The 30 year fixed average is approximately 6.25%. In addition to that, people are starting to become more accustomed to it, so people are now no longer waiting for the 3% that we used to see. Inventory active listings are up roughly 9% year over year, so still below the pre-2020, levels, but the lock in effect that we just mentioned, the lock in effect is finally eroding. So lock in effect is, I have my 3% mortgage. I'm not going anywhere. But you got that 3% mortgage in 2015. Now it is 11 years later. You have a new job. Maybe your kids are grown, maybe you lost your job. Whatever happens, houses are starting to come on the market at 9% year over year. That's really good. While wages have not caught up to the cost of housing, the cost of housing has gone to a moderate crawl at one to 2% annually, and this is the first time in years, so wage growth is expected to outpace home price growth, slightly improving affordability. And you guys can look all this up. Redfin, realtor.com, and NAR were the primary ones that we got some of this information from. Market Watch and Forbes were other ones. But if wages continue to outgrow the cost of a home, again, that is a market reset. But it's not a market reset like in years past. This is the great market reset. Wages will come up. House prices will stagnate, and by 2030, full blown buyers market, by the end of this year, we're going to start to see more buyers market. We're coming into a little bit of it. House down the road for me, has been sitting there for weeks. You know, it's starting to become a buyer's market again, but just very, very slowly. 2027 I think, and 2028 are going to be great years. This is going to be a good year, and I think we'll finally be able to breathe a little bit. What are your thoughts on that?

Beon DeNood 
Yeah, I haven't been able to keep as close a pulse on the market as what you've been able to do. But I think a lot of those stats are evident. I always just think, like, what's happening in my neighborhood, you know, because I do live in Florida. So like you said, Florida is usually the the canary in the cage to watch for the rest of the country's markets, and, yeah, properties that have been just sitting for sale for a long time. You're seeing prices come down significantly. You're starting to notice a couple of sold signs appearing on those properties now that have been standing there for months. So things are starting to move. Of course, there's big winds of uncertainty. One big difference between last quarter's report, and this quarter's report is that there's a war going on right now, which does affect a lot of the macro economics that affect everybody. So that creates some uncertainty, but it looks like there is a great deal of investment from the Fed and others to make sure that housing is affordable. There was even legislation passed quite recently. Maybe you were going to get into that, but that locked out commercial buyers from buying up large swaths of residential real estate and other measures. It was a substantial bill. I'm not sure if it actually did pass, but it seems like there are some protections being built in that things are not just going to run crazy or wild for the US consumer there, there are going to be control points to make sure things don't go crazy. So that supports your theory where we are, you know, at a leveling out piece or phase, where we will transition finally into a more favorable market condition, you know. So I guess from what I do know and what I have been reading, that does definitely check out.

Ian Robertson 
Yeah, and you know that bill, I haven't checked on it recently, but I remember when they announced it, the saying was something along the lines, single family homes are for families. One of the things that hurt the housing market the most was corporate America and big time investors, stock market guys, just buying up houses. For them, it was a good, safe investment. You know, normally a house, what, 3% whatever. But for them, in 2020 to 2022..

Beon DeNood 
Goodness me.

Ian Robertson 
Man, they made a killing.

Beon DeNood 
Yeah, they doubled their investments sometimes.

Ian Robertson 
It was better than a lot of lot of other investments. I don't know how the bill exactly played out, but there are safety nets going in place, and regular single family home sales are doing a little bit better. So for instance, existing home sales are projected to end the year at roughly 4.2 million units, which is a 3% increase over 2025 which is pretty modest. And then also, I was encouraged to see that there was a 16% increase in mortgage applications. So corporate America doesn't do mortgage applications. The average American family does. So they are increasing, which shows that people are more confident in the market, and the let's watch and wait mentality is starting to wear away.

Beon DeNood 
So I just looked up the bill because I was curious. I guess it was called the 21st Century Road to Housing Act. So it was passed in March of 2026 and includes key provisions designed to protect single family home ownership by restricting large institutional investors. The bill seeks to curb corporate home grabbing by limiting investors who own 350 plus single family homes, requiring they sell newly built units to individuals within seven years or face fines.

Ian Robertson 
Oh ok, I was wondering how they were going to do that with existing inventory, which makes sense. But for them, they're motivated to. If you were a big corporation that bought 800 to, let's say you bought 1000 houses, you're holding on to them now is not making you money.

Beon DeNood 
Yeah, you're at the top of the curve.

Ian Robertson 
Yeah, you're at the top of the curve, so you'd sell now anyways. So I'm hoping they start dumping those on the market, because they're going to become a liability, because if they wait till the end of that a multi-year period, they might end up paying fines, because they're like, listen, we have them on the market. Nobody's buying them, so they're going to do it ahead of time. So I think that'll be a good thing, but I wish more people would look at the numbers when it comes to buying a house. So the affordability shift, according to realtor.com, it says monthly payments are finally dipping below 30% of median income. That's an important number to know, so you want to keep your house payment at least 30% or less than your monthly income, but that for years has not been the case. I don't think it's been the case since about 2020, maybe in 2020 I'd have to look at the exact numbers, but that means that the average American or Canadian can go buy a house now. The median house is dipping below 30% of your household income. Again, that makes a little bit tight, but that's a good thing. So when people look at those numbers, and then they look at maybe a housing increase from, you know, even corporate America dumping houses on the market, there's some good things to look forward to.

Beon DeNood 
Absolutely there is. Locally too, I know multifamily always comes up in my discussion, too, but I literally can't believe how much multifamily is popping up in our local area over here. So I mean, again, that's a good thing, because we have shortage in single family homes and in multifamily, that is ultimately going to be a good thing for the market in the longer term.

Ian Robertson 
And you also know what kind of interests me is the shift in real estate agents and real estate brokers, obviously, I really wonder where that's going to go. I don't have a solid prediction. I would have thought by now that there would be less of them but more activity. But instead, I'm seeing the reverse. I'm seeing more agents, but less activity. That one surprised me. So we've talked about that on the podcast a lot, and home inspectors are like, oh, I don't market to agents anymore. They're going away, they're dinosaurs. So first of all, there's still a great source of referrals. Don't think that. It's kind of like when people tell me, oh, SEO is dead, I'm like, literally, SEO turned into SEO/AEO, and it's become more important than it ever has. People have been saying 20 years that SEO is dead. It's the same thing with agents. Oh, you're not gonna have agents anymore, and yet here they are, 20 years later, just like SEO. But it is interesting. I know some brokers that have owned some relatively big brokerages. There's a good friend of mine who used to be a vice president at Merrill Lynch, and he started a pretty decent sized brokerage. I know guys that are in New York City doing, you know, couple of billion dollars a year. I know brokers in Jersey and California and other states. And it's just really interesting. They're all saying the same thing, and this is very anecdotal. They're like, we've never seen it this slow but so much activity be going on at the same time. What are your thoughts on that?

Beon DeNood 
I haven't thought about that at all. I was actually, when you started on this point, I was curious to see what your findings were, because, you know, about the time that the whole NAR lawsuit or settlement happened and everything, we all had our predictions. And like you said, there was like the end is nigh for all, like the buyer's agent is gonna disappear. But yeah, it seems a lot like business as usual, you know. And just from the point of view of personally, I haven't heard any news or stories that would indicate that the dynamic has changed very, very much, you know. But yeah, so I'm afraid very limited amount I'm able to contribute there besides not hearing a lot and not hearing a lot, is maybe the point.

Ian Robertson 
Yeah, and that is the point. It's not a matter of there being any data to really analyze. So you can look at the data, and I can show you data that says the exact opposite of the data you have. It's really this weird ghost in the room. You can't put a form or figure on it. It's just a general weirdness. So I'll give you one. One of the brokers was telling me that things are selling, but all the brokers and agents are like, at half or a third of their typical sales. And he's like, the math doesn't add up. He goes, we can keep track of all the agents. We know who all the agents are. It's on the government's website. Their particular state posts it all. I can see their sales. It has to be publicly displayed where he is. And he's just like, I don't get it. How is so much more inventory moving? And I'm wondering, are more people selling without an agent? But there can't be that many. I'm not seeing a lot of FSBOs kicking around, for sale by owner. It's just a weird market.

Beon DeNood 
So are these transactions that are maybe being done off of MLS, but still involving the agents?

Ian Robertson 
I almost wonder if there's people privately buying the homes, and not just big corporations. You know what I mean?

Beon DeNood 
Like individuals.

Ian Robertson 
Yeah, like individuals just buying up a lot of homes. Because we have done inspections. Now that I'm thinking about it, we have done some inspections for some people, where they just hire us, and they keep hiring us. We do three, four or five home inspections for them, and all of a sudden it's like, oh, what are you doing with all these houses? And I wish I could put words on it, and I realized that's hard for me to say. I don't have words to put it in, but it's the weirdest I've ever seen things for real estate agents. For home inspectors, we're doing great. Numbers are up for the most part, while modestly, they're up for just about every segment of the home inspection industry. This summer, I predict is going to be a good summer, like a six out of 10. Is it going to be a nine out of 10? No, it's going to be a six out of 10. Yeah, enjoy it. Get your work. Have some fun inspecting. Save a little bit for this winter. But just know that I'm going to be watching that over the next year. What in the world is going on with agents and brokers. And I know what everybody's thinking right now, Ian, it's got to be AI, but there's no solid AI tools out there that are available for the masses. So they have AI systems that you schedule the showing that it does the background check has cameras on you, identifies your face, watches you in the house, and every corner. You view it, you leave, you put in your offer electronically, you consult your AI agent. Yeah, but those things are not available to the masses and anything real at the moment, and people still don't trust AI because it hallucinates and how you're going to trust AI to sell your house like that. When it tells you, you know, add strawberries to your blueberry pie, it does stupid things. I asked an AI model about its own pricing two days ago, and it says that's not available. We don't do that. Then I looked on its own website, and I'm like, it says, you do it right here, and here's the pricing. I could have just looked it up, but I wanted to ask you, because you were right here. And it literally stopped and said, I cannot comment anything that's on our help articles, you'll have to contact a live person, but we don't have a live person for you to contact. And I'm like, and this is supposed to take our jobs?

Beon DeNood 
It's a work in progress.

Ian Robertson 
It is, or a failed experiment. I don't know.

Beon DeNood 
Yeah, I think it is interesting. So there have been two homes that have sold recently in my immediate neighborhood. And so, you know, I'm curious to see, you know, what did they sell for? I knew what they were asking. And I look them up on Zillow, look them up on realtor.com and there's no transaction data, nothing. It shows that they were removed, the listing was removed, but there's no transaction data for them. So that's what makes me think that these deals are happening off MLS, and maybe this is the new thing that's happening since the NAR settlement, that there's more of a kind of boutique local listings that are off MLS transactions are happening with. So all our visibility before, we relied on MLS data to be able to get visibility stats and everything. But that's missing from there now, so I wonder if that's maybe a trend that we're seeing happening.

Ian Robertson 
I would say yes, except a lot of areas of the US, I don't know about Canada, but a lot of the areas of the US, transfer of real property is a public declaration.

Beon DeNood 
So you may see it in like county records or something like that.

Ian Robertson 
Exactly, so you have to be able to see the actual transfer of real property. Those are some of the US's oldest laws, even like some fall under surveyor laws and all that stuff. So that could be happening, we'd have to check the county records to see if there was actually a transfer. I do know there are more houses going off the market and then BOMK, back on market, than there were even just a year or two ago, which is actually good for us, because if it goes off market and comes back on, hypothetically, that actually creates more inspections. So it creates more inspections, like, did it fail inspection and go BOMK, or did it go off market because it didn't sell and now it needs to get sold cheaper. If that house gets sold cheaper, then it'll have a different buyer space that wants a home inspection. So statistically speaking, it slightly increases our chance of more inspections. You know what segment I've noticed is hot right now, is not the first home buyer segment, it's the 500 to $900,000 home segment, just hovering under a million dollars. That segment is really hot right now. So if there was a takeaway from this that I would tell people is target that segment this year. So a lot of us like to target the first time home buyers, because that is, I mean, for most of my career, that's been what you target, it's where the money's at, first time homebuyers. Try targeting that upper market a little bit. So that happens very subtly. That market happens a little bit more with the agent than it does a search online. So that requires a little bit better agent relations. Try changing some of the wording on your website, maybe to be a little bit higher end, but not really high end. Even a $900,000 house is not considered really high end anymore. Going to be on the higher end of the mid range, maybe lower end of the top range. But either way, try to target that audience a little bit more. Maybe get some new business cards printed so when you hand them out, it's just the higher end feel, because I think that's the part of the market that's going to move the most this year. That segment is less concerned about the interest rate. They're usually not going to have any PMI, so they're not worried about putting a big chunk of money down. I also noticed it's one of the highest cash buyer market. So a lot of guys that'll buy a $700,000 house, a lot of them will pay cash higher percentage than people who buy a $300,000 house, because a $300,000 house, if you're paying cash, you might as well put us down as a down payment for a million dollar home. So I really do think that's the segment that we should be targeting this year, because I think it's the hottest one.

Beon DeNood 
Interesting. Okay, and that represents, like, what upper percentage of your market? I mean, is that, like, the 80 to 90 percentile worth of value in your market? Because, I mean, obviously the cost of a house is pretty relative, depending on the market.

Ian Robertson 
Some markets, I mean, like, if you're in Southern California, I mean, that's just the average house on your street, you know, eight, 900k but if you're in like Indiana, that's probably going to be a pretty nice house. If you're in my area, that's going to be a nice house. So it does change depending on your market, but that is going to be the upper range. You're going to be targeting the upper 30% of people. Because I think they're just the ones that are. I mean, what price range is that? What does a person have to make, is it like 300 grand a year to buy a eight, $900,000 house?

Beon DeNood 
Well, if it's representing, like the 30% you know that you mentioned, if they're doing mortgage or anything like that, yes.

Ian Robertson 
I mean to be a 1% individual earner is like, 500 grand a year, a little over that. Household earning has to be a little over 600 grand. So it's definitely not 1%. The 1% are usually buying, you know, one two and $3 million homes.

Beon DeNood 
Yeah, that's an interesting shift in dynamic. It's always amazing to me how this market is. It's such a living thing, right? And there's so many different things that influence it, and sometimes there's some real surprises. But that's why I love this segment, because I feel, for any inspector listening, you get very interesting insights that you wouldn't think about usually. I mean, I would never have thought about that, but even that slight shift can make the difference between, you know, you're, you're making what you've set up as your quotas this year, and having a good year, as opposed to beating down an old path that's not going to lead to the same result as it did in years past. You know?

Ian Robertson 
Yeah, and that's why we do quarterly updates, because from one quarter to the next, I mean, even in between our quarterly updates, the market changes so much, like we were saying, part of Q1 was amazing and part of Q1 was terrible. But if I were to kind of sum up what my prediction is, I think it's going to be a great spring. We're in April right now, April, May, June. I think it's going to be good. I think we're going to have a slightly above average summer. Think we're going to have a good fall. I think 2027 is going to be even better than this year. But don't expect these meteoric rises. We actually don't want a meteoric rise. We want exactly what's happening right now. Things leveling out. For a change, breathe and let the market catch up to where it needs to be. Housing affordability is finally catching up with people's wages, inventories going up, house prices are steadying, only going up 1 to 3% so yeah, it's definitely a good thing happening right now.

Beon DeNood 
Awesome. That's some valuable information.

Ian Robertson 
So do you have anything else to add to that? Do you disagree or agree with my assessment?

Beon DeNood 
No, yeah, I'm going with agree. Like I said, I haven't taken a super deep dive into all the stats like you have, but even just looking at what I'm seeing around me, I would concur. It makes perfect sense to me.

Ian Robertson 
Awesome. Well, Beon, thank you for being on, and always that's a funny pun in my head, but never when I say it out loud. But appreciate it and everybody, listen in next time to Inspector Toolbelt Talk and have a great day!
