I'm Nicole Lapin, the only financial expert you don't need a dictionary to understand.

It's time for some money rehab. Right around this time last year I spoke to John Grommon, real estate agent

slash star of buying Beverly Hills on Netflix. We talked about the state of the housing market and

opportunities for both buyers and sellers. Fast forward to the present and

it's time to check in and see how these opportunities have changed. So John is

back to give us his outlook for 2024. John is my favorite of all the TV

real estate agents because he's an expert on screen and off. But you should also totally watch

him on season 2 of buying Beverly Hills, which comes out on March 22nd on Netflix.

Today we talk about how the interest rate drop could affect home prices, tips for finding your dream home,

and for the cherry on top, the truth about squatters rates.

John Grommon.

Hi.

Welcome to Money Rehab again.

Yeah, thanks for having me back.

You were here almost a year ago. Crazy town USA. Yeah. What is time?

When you were here last inventory was in the pooper. Interest rates were climbing.

Uh-huh. also prices were high.

Uh-huh.

So let's cut to present day.

Fill us in.

What has happened since the last time you were here?

It might as well still just be a year ago. I don't know that much has really changed, frankly.
