Welcome to the REAL Trending podcast where your host, Steve Murray, founder of REAL Trends Consulting and a senior advisor to HousingWire, offers insight and analysis on three trending real estate issues. Steve\u2019s 30+ years in the industry allows him to give you a deeper understanding of today\u2019s real estate business happenings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In Episode 93, Steve discusses:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mortgage Forbearance Impacts<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

“These mortgages that are in forbearance, obviously simply are either going to get worked out or these homes are going to be put on the market and sold. As I said earlier, the good news for the housing market is any number, even a large number of those homes, those 2.7 million homes, where the mortgages are in forbearance<\/a>.”<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Work From Home and Impacts on Office Space<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

“If we see tens of millions of office workers no longer going to an office routinely, there will be a similar downward spiral of the use of commercial office buildings of all kinds. Whether it’s a 6,000 square foot building or a 600,000 square foot building, there will be tremendous downward pressure on the use of office space if these reports and research trends continue.”<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Brokerage and Agent Segmentation<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

“The market is now segmenting and agents are moving one direction or another and trying different models to find which one fits for them.”<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
