Quarterly Roundtable Discussion on Current Market Trends

Triangle Real Estate Podcast

On our quarterly roundtable, we cut straight to the chase on the Triangle's real estate heartbeat. We're peeling back the layers on market trends with sharp insights and on-the-ground analysis

I'm joined by a panel of industry experts including John Wood, Jim Spaeth, Jacob Sagi, Roberto Quercia and Eric Maribojoc, each bringing a wealth of knowledge from their extensive experience in real estate finance and housing policy at UNC.
We tear into the ripple effects of changes in buyer agent commissions and how they rattle the market from top to bottom. We also talk about the undercurrents that hit the pockets of veterans and first-time buyers the hardest, the big picture of housing availability and affordability, and the pesky issue of mortgage rates playing jump rope with your budget.
Don't miss our insightful analyses and expert forecasts that can help
you make informed decisions.
Specifically, this episode highlights the following themes:

• The recent overhaul in buyer agent commissions and its potential ripple effects
• Housing affordability and its impact on marginalized buyers
• The conundrum facing homeowners with North Carolina's insurance market
