Cheap Fees and Over-Valuing - Ep. 2538

About this episode

Gareth Overton discusses the implications of cheap fees and overvaluing in the real estate industry.

Cheap fees, overvaluing and a race to the bottom, are agents undermining their own worth? Gareth Overton shares a candid take on prioritising listings over profit, the power of evidence based valuations, and why raising fees, building confidence, and walking away can strengthen long term success.
