Summary
In this episode of the RE Real Estate Podcast, hosts Ben Harang and Clint Galliano discuss the complexities of timing the real estate market and emphasize the importance of making decisions based on personal life events rather than market fluctuations. They explore various market signals, such as interest rates and inventory, and how these factors can mislead buyers and sellers. The conversation encourages listeners to focus on their individual circumstances and needs when buying or selling a home, rather than trying to predict market trends.
Takeaways
· It's essential to make real estate decisions based on your life events.
· Trying to time the market perfectly is often unrealistic.
· Interest rates and inventory are important but not the only factors to consider.

· Don't let external market conditions control your choices.
· The sooner you buy, the more comfortable you'll be.
· Work with a trusted real estate team to guide your decisions.
