Episode 168: Why Most Realtors (and Lenders) Cost Clients More Than They Save
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Most people hire a realtor or lender based on price, rate, or commission.
That decision can quietly cost them years of financial progress.
In this episode, we expose the uncomfortable truth about experience in real estate and mortgage lending and why transparency matters more than ever.
We cover:
- The shocking breakdown of agent productivity
- Why cheap commission often leads to worse outcomes
- How inexperienced lenders create massive long-term risk
- The power of holistic mortgage planning
- A real story that proves liquidity beats low payments
If you’re buying, selling, or advising clients — this episode is a must-listen.
