Real Estate Called Out
You've heard the press releases. You've seen the headlines. You've watched the industry smile for the camera and tell you everything is fine.
It's not always fine. And somebody needs to say so.
Real Estate Called Out is the evolution of The Real Estate Replay, reborn with one mission: to tell consumers the truth about what's actually happening in real estate, every single week, without corporate sponsors, without soft-pedaling, and without pretending the PR spin is the whole story.
Hosted by Wendy Gilch, a real estate industry veteran who has spent years watching the same playbook run on the same people, this show exists for buyers, sellers, and anyone who has ever signed something and wondered if they got the full picture. Spoiler: you probably didn't.
Every episode is 20 minutes. One topic. One thing the industry was hoping would float right past you. We dig into the latest news, the mortgage gimmicks, the fine print, and the corporate moves that look great in a headline and tell a very different story underneath it.
No fluff. No favors. No "on the other hand, they make some good points."
The PR machine is loud, but we're louder.
These are my personal opinions, formed after years of watching the real estate industry from the inside. They do not reflect the views of my real jobs, the Consumer Policy Center, or any organization I work with. I wear a lot of hats, this podcast is just where I take them all off."

The billion dollar lawsuits that can change how (and how much) agents get paid
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Three anti-trust lawsuits are making their way through the court systems that could potentially change how (and how much) agents get paid when buying or selling a home.
While these billion-dollar cases are some of the biggest lawsuits ever hitting the National Association of Realtors, you likely haven't heard much about them.
But why?
To help dissect these cases, we asked our friend Rob Hahn to join this particular episode. Rob is the co-founder of Decentre Property Exchange. He is also the managing partner of 7DS Associates, which advises brokerages big and small in real estate to make impactful changes. Rob also graduated from NYU School of Law, focusing on corporate law and international bankruptcy. Although he is a self-proclaimed "retired lawyer," you can see why we thought he would be the perfect person to explain what is going on with these three cases.
