Real Estate Radio USA Episode 62
Barry Johnson…
We opened today’s episode by talking about price discovery and how we can overcome the failing economy more quickly. By facing the foreclosure crisis head on and allowing market forces to happen naturally instead of stalling them through programs and proposed legislation, we could realize a more stable market and future. Or we could just let the talking heads blame anyone and everyone for letting this happen… That sounds like more fun.
Barry C and I had the distinct pleasure of interviewing Glenn Kelman, CEO of Redfin.com today. We talked about a range of topics from Redfin expansion plans, core business principles, marketing, to fun things like Glenn’s 60 Minutes interview. For someone at the helm of a muti-million dollar real estate firm, being a pioneer in a new form of real estate business, to me he was surprisingly down to earth and easy to talk to. We enjoyed having him on the program and will continue to follow Redfin.com’s progress in the market.
We spent the last part of the episode talking about Barry C’s new blog post titled, “Why Do Realtors Hate Spam But Love Spamming?”. I think Barry C made the point quite effective that while real estate agents hate being marketed to, especially in electronic form, they have no problem filling my mailbox with postcards with their big mugs on them.
