This week’s episode of The Real Word starts with Byron Lazine and Nicole White weighing in on the Keller Williams cold call class action lawsuit—and their $40 million settlement.
Next up was a MarketWatch article on what economists have to say about home price cuts jumping from 7.1% in December to 13.6% this year. Asking the question, “Is now the time to buy before the spring rush hits?” led to a stack of insights and predictions for 2023.
Finally, for the “Left, Middle, Right” segment, Byron and Nicole discussed a CNN report: “China records first population decline in 60 years,” touching on the importance of population stability to the economy (and, by extension, the housing market) and long-term projections for China.
