Shifting Market: What to Expect & How to Handle It | The Reality of Real Estate Podcast | EP 36

Aired on June 7, 2025 Welcome to another episode of The Reality of Real Estate Podcast! In this episode, we break down the major shift happening in today’s real estate market and what it means for both buyers and sellers moving forward. One eye-opening statistic says it all: buyers today need to earn roughly 70% more than they did just six years ago to afford a home. That reality has reshaped affordability, buyer behavior, and—most importantly—pricing strategy. So in a market like this, why would a seller overprice a home? The truth is, overpricing in a shifting market can cost you time, money, and leverage. As conditions soften, buyers adjust quickly, while sellers often lag behind. The market is no longer rewarding unrealistic price expectations, and homes priced correctly from day one are the ones getting attention. We also talk about why the days of automatic multiple-offer situations are fading—and how smart strategy, not hope, wins in today’s market. Don’t Hire the Wrong Agent in a Shifting Market Choosing the right real estate agent has never been more important. Most consumers don’t know how to properly interview agents or what questions truly matter. In this episode, we explain what separates experienced professionals from part-time or inexperienced agents—and why that difference can make or break your outcome. We cover essential questions every buyer or seller should ask, including: ➡️Were you active during past market cycles like 2005 and the 2008 recession? ➡️Are you a full-time agent with deep market involvement? ➡️How many homes have you sold, and in what price ranges? ➡️Can you clearly explain today’s major industry changes, including real estate class action lawsuits? ➡️What is your value proposition, and how strong are your negotiation skills? ➡️What certifications and ongoing education do you have? In a shifting market, experience, data, and strategy matter more than ever. When you hire the right agent—and listen to their advice—you gain clarity, protection, and a real advantage. Whether you’re buying, selling, or simply trying to understand what’s next, this episode gives you the insight you need to navigate today’s changing real estate landscape with confidence. 🎧 Tune in and get prepared. #RealEstatePodcast #ShiftingMarket #HousingMarketUpdate #HomeBuyingTips #HomeSellingAdvice #RealEstateEducation #VirginiaRealEstate #MarketShift #RealtorAdvice 🔗FindHomesUSA.com 📞434-337-3216 (Text or Call) 📖 Check out our Blog @ FindHomesUSA.com/blog.php 👉 Follow us on Facebook "Find Homes Realty" 👉 Follow us on Instagram @findhomesrealty 👉 Listen to our Weekly Podcast "The Reality of Real Estate" - http://www.findhomesrealty.com/podcast 👉 Subscribe to our YouTube Channel @FindHomesRealty #FindHomesRealty #RealEstate
