Summary

Some agents may feel today’s podcast guest is trying to take their job away. And we discuss that. But the way I see it, Jarred Kessler is an innovating entrepreneur pushing our industry forward.   And you can learn from his example.   As the founder of EasyKnock, a company that allows people to convert their home equity to cash without going through a bank, Jarred is helping not only homeowners but agents as well.   This week, I spoke with Jarred about what it’s like to be the CEO of a real estate startup, the pivots to make during a recession, and his vision of the future.   If you’ve ever been interested in founding a startup or just want to understand the changing real estate landscape, make sure to watch or listen to this episode, right here.
