Selling your home in the spring market can be challenging—especially in a buyer’s market like the Mississippi Gulf Coast, where inventory is high and multiple offers are rare. In this episode, we discuss the top 10 things you need to know when selecting a real estate agent and how to maximize your home’s sale potential in a competitive market.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

✅ How to identify an agent with experience in the Mississippi Gulf Coast market
✅ Why pricing strategy is more important than ever in a buyer’s market
✅ How negotiation skills make a difference when multiple offers are rare
✅ The role of marketing—including professional photography, social media, and networking
✅ Staging expectations—why lower-priced homes are often left vacant, while high-end homes may benefit from staging
✅ Why switching agents may not help if the core issue is pricing or market conditions
✅ Seller incentives that can help attract buyers, including closing cost assistance and interest rate buydowns
✅ Understanding commission structures and contract terms before signing with an agent

Key Takeaways:

🔹 Not all agents are created equal—look for experience, marketing expertise, and negotiation skills
🔹 Multiple offers are not common—but a smart pricing and marketing strategy can still get your home sold fast
🔹 Staging is a function of price—homes below the median price are rarely staged, while higher-end homes may be
🔹 Switching agents won’t magically sell your home—if your current agent is using all the right tools, reassess price and strategy
🔹 Seller incentives can make a big difference in a buyer’s market

Many Babyboomers and successful Gen Xers are concerned that their adult children will not be prepared for retirement.  The last thing that they want is for their adult children to receive a large inheritance and squander it.

This podcast explores creating a living trust that will become a retirement program for your adult children after you pass.  Rather than all of your assets being distributed at your passing, they are held in a trust until your children are of retirement age.

Years ago, actually generations ago, workers knew one thing to be true.  Their retirement was secure.  They received either a pension (defined benefit plan), Social Security, or both.   

We discuss how plans have changed and evolved or devolved depending on your perspective on the plans we have today.  How important it is for people today to manage their own retirement.  In the past, their employer made sure that there were funds available and that the contribution was 100% from the employer.

That only exists in a few places today which we discuss.  Bill Anderson and Dick Anderson who have much experience with retirement plans discuss their own experiences.

In this eye-opening episode of the RetireCoast Podcast, we explore the lucrative opportunities in jobs that pay big dollars without requiring a college degree or the burden of student debt. From elevator repairers to commercial divers and wind turbine technicians, these careers offer high earning potential, job security, and minimal education costs.

We’ll discuss how parents can rethink the traditional "college-first" mindset, especially when it risks saddling their children with mountains of debt and uncertain career prospects. Instead, we’ll highlight practical paths to success, focusing on hands-on careers that promise stability and are less likely to be replaced by AI in the future.

Join us as we talk about the best options for long-term, high-paying careers that don't demand a diploma but do demand a strong work ethic. If you're a parent, a young adult, or just looking for a career pivot, this episode is packed with insights to help you make smart financial and career decisions.

Highlights:

• Why traditional college isn't the only path to a successful career.
• Real examples of jobs paying $100,000+ with little to no college education.
• The role of apprenticeships and vocational training in creating long-term stability.
• How these jobs are resistant to automation and AI displacement.
• A new perspective for parents guiding their children into adulthood without debt.

Tune in to learn why "dirty jobs" are now some of the smartest choices for a bright financial future.

Don't buy a condo before listening to this podcast.  If you buy that perfect condo without diving into reserve study and assessments, you could find yourself in big trouble.  Many people have walked away from their condos because very large assessments have been required to complete deferred maintenance on their properties. 

The large condo complex that collapsed in Florida is a great example of a building that was falling apart and the HOA did not manage the property by accruing funds every month for eventual maintenance.  The result, the building was destroyed and people died.

Learn more about what you should do before you sign up to buy your condo.

Do you like paying less to the federal government in taxes?  If you answered yes then you better get to planning now.  Effective at the end of this year those great lower tax rates and high standard deductions will become a thing of the past.

Congress has not reauthorized the tax benefits and with the election this year, they may not get to it.  Listen as we discuss how much those reductions have benefited you and what you can do right now to take advantage before the end of the year.
