Discomfortable

In this episode we touch on the mortgage and real estate markets as it relates to buyer and seller emotion today. We talk about building a culture within your community and, we make reference to international affairs and geopolitical happenings.
The majority of the episode is dedicated to personal reflection. When you know what to do, in any aspect of your life, but are not doing it. Is it lack of discipline and general laziness? Is it lack of purpose or meaning? Or is it this sneaky thing we call ego that wants to keep you safe and the desire for the outcomes is simply less powerful than the desire for safety?

Join Matt Hudson and guest, Patrick Laurienti for this lively, entertaining, thoughtful and deeply informative conversation tailored specifically to real estate professionals helping sellers in this market.
Matt and Patrick discuss truth, setting expectations, communuication, humility, the concept of attachment, pricing homes, property preparation and real marketing and the idea that you, the professional, can have freedom and release the emotion of your clients by being dedicated to a process, versus worrying about whether or not you are "doing enough."
Ultimately, Matt and Patrick make the arguement that your clients are better served and your business grows through referrals because of your dedication to these concepts.
The listener will be an experienced real estate professional dedicated to excellence and the evolution of their craft. This episode is not for the part time agent or the sales guy in our indsutry who doesn't have the time or inclination to work hard and be a great steward of professionalsim for consumers.

Welcome to Discomfortable with Matt and Adam, episode one. We introduce ourselves, a bit of our passion for why we are now launching a podcast, and start our journey together talking some real estate and mortgage industry specifics.
Most episodes will not go this deep, or for this long on or about real estate, but it is valuable for industry professionals to understand some of the conclusions at which we arrive at in this episode. These will help you communicate more effectively with your clients about the changes that are occurring in our market and what they mean for the short and long term predictions.
In particular, we help professionals understand the specific conclusion that while interest rates are high and demand is low, market conditions do not show signs of a crash. We explain the analysis leading to these conclusions and hope it helps you in your practice of serving consumers exceptionally.
