In this episode of Coffee & Closings, Ethan sits down with Cara Gibbons, Managing Attorney at Sterling Law, to discuss her journey into real estate law, why she calls it "happy law," and the lessons she's learned from more than 15 years at the closing table. 

They dive into due diligence, earnest money, AI in real estate, the biggest mistakes agents make, and some of the wildest closing stories Cara has experienced—including title issues, pet monkeys, and buyers who changed their minds at the closing table. It's an entertaining conversation packed with practical advice for agents, buyers, and sellers alike.
