- 0:09Speaker 1: I don't know. I guess everybody's back in town because
- 0:13Speaker 1: the phone started ringing. We were so busy last weekend
- 0:18Speaker 1: and this past week. I'm like, man, I felt like
- 0:21Speaker 1: I was kind of on hiatus for about three weeks
- 0:23Speaker 1: and then all of a sudden, it's like, all right,
- 0:25Speaker 1: we're back in the swing of things. What's up. Brad
- 0:27Speaker 1: Smith with Cross Country Mortgage bradsmithlons dot com. What's up, dude?
- 0:31Speaker 2: Man, it's going good. Man. We're just just middle of
- 0:34Speaker 2: the summer. Yeah, and just rocking and rolling.
- 0:37Speaker 1: Football for real estate mortgages.
- 0:41Speaker 2: Yes, life, yes, but there's life in there. Uh extra,
- 0:47Speaker 2: But no, man, it's it's been going good. Yeah, it's
- 0:49Speaker 2: been busy. I don't you know this whole summer, even
- 0:53Speaker 2: though we've talked about like as far as like the
- 0:55Speaker 2: phone ringing and like, yeah, it's picked up a little bit,
- 0:57Speaker 2: but not necessarily, like it hasn't been just on fire
- 1:01Speaker 2: all summer just to cross all markets, you know.
- 1:04Speaker 1: Has it?
- 1:05Speaker 2: And you know, I noticed, like I feel like this summer,
- 1:07Speaker 2: like the traffic never let up. This summer. You know,
- 1:10Speaker 2: like a lot of times, you feel like, you know,
- 1:11Speaker 2: you can tell its summertime. You can tell schools out.
- 1:13Speaker 1: You don't think as many people went out of town.
- 1:16Speaker 2: The whole summer.
- 1:17Speaker 1: I think I feel like people did check out, though
- 1:19Speaker 1: they did check out, even some of our agents.
- 1:22Speaker 2: I mean, well, I watched the TV every day. I
- 1:25Speaker 2: think a lot of folks have checked out. But man,
- 1:27Speaker 2: but but I mean, so it's just been kind of
- 1:30Speaker 2: a weird summer. And I don't know, you know, I think,
- 1:32Speaker 2: but the gas prices and some of that stuff, I
- 1:35Speaker 2: mean that's huge. I mean we're not talking about a
- 1:37Speaker 2: little bit, and we're talking about, you know, forty increase
- 1:41Speaker 2: since January.
- 1:42Speaker 1: You know, I got I got a big old tundra
- 1:44Speaker 1: my my call it my monster truck, and I think
- 1:47Speaker 1: holds like thirty three gallons. And I literally had to
- 1:51Speaker 1: go get gas at two different places because they put
- 1:55Speaker 1: a limit, a limit, a seventy five dollars limit. I'm
- 1:57Speaker 1: like seventy five like that even give me half a tank,
- 2:02Speaker 1: like come on? So all it was pissed me off.
- 2:06Speaker 1: I bet so that was that map co on two eighty.
- 2:10Speaker 1: So then so I had to make it. So I
- 2:13Speaker 1: had an appointment, you know, there, and then later on
- 2:17Speaker 1: in the afternoon, I was in Helena, so and I
- 2:20Speaker 1: had a little bit of time. I was like, well, heck,
- 2:22Speaker 1: I need to go ahead and get gas. So I
- 2:23Speaker 1: had I filled up in Helena. But it's so aggravating,
- 2:26Speaker 1: and I'm like, come on, just y'all should know that
- 2:29Speaker 1: it like gases and this is you know, I'm on
- 2:32Speaker 1: the on those tundras, I can put in the regular unleaded,
- 2:34Speaker 1: so I can put in the eighty seven, so it's
- 2:36Speaker 1: not as crazy like in my old Cayenne where I
- 2:39Speaker 1: had to put in like the super premium eight.
- 2:44Speaker 2: But so I do I mean, I think all of
- 2:46Speaker 2: that has played a role in just kind of the
- 2:49Speaker 2: you know, the hearts and minds as you as you will,
- 2:52Speaker 2: and so I mean, I think there's a lot to that.
- 2:54Speaker 1: I'm gonna talk about a success story in our next
- 2:56Speaker 1: segment about the house in Crestwood that we had last
- 3:00Speaker 1: week that we held open as well some we'll talk
- 3:03Speaker 1: about the results on that. And you know, we've had
- 3:07Speaker 1: multiple situations, I mean, we've put multiple homes under contract
- 3:11Speaker 1: this past week off market, and situations where somebody's relocating
- 3:16Speaker 1: out of the area and just didn't want to go
- 3:18Speaker 1: to market, and so we got them hooked up with somebody,
- 3:22Speaker 1: and one of our investors I thought, came in with
- 3:24Speaker 1: a very fair offer, and then had somebody else in
- 3:28Speaker 1: the and that heme is in the clear area. Then
- 3:31Speaker 1: it got one in the pension area. And those folks
- 3:35Speaker 1: they had roommates, they had pets, and the pets seemingly
- 3:41Speaker 1: didn't like to go outside. They liked to stay inside.
- 3:45Speaker 1: And so there was a lot of cosmetic updates that
- 3:48Speaker 1: were needed in this house. And so they knew that
- 3:51Speaker 1: they were going to have to write a pretty sizable
- 3:54Speaker 1: check to get it to where it needed to be
- 3:56Speaker 1: on the market. And so are came in. I had
- 4:01Speaker 1: multiple investors come in, and one came in with an
- 4:06Speaker 1: offer that I thought was more than fair, and I said, hey,
- 4:08Speaker 1: like it was me and this is my house, Like
- 4:10Speaker 1: I'd take it right. They jumped on it, and they're
- 4:13Speaker 1: writing a check at closing. You know, like there's some
- 4:15Speaker 1: people that you know, unfortunately, based on condition or when
- 4:20Speaker 1: they bought the house, you know, they have not seen appreciation,
- 4:23Speaker 1: even though we can show statistics that we've had a
- 4:26Speaker 1: market that has appreciated, but it's not all the areas
- 4:30Speaker 1: have right, So that's why you've got to call the
- 4:34Speaker 1: experts at the Gusty Gulist Group two O five five
- 4:36Speaker 1: four to two, nineteen ninety six or Gustygoulisgroup dot com.

- 8:37Speaker 2: Five percent down?
- 8:38Speaker 3: So it's got to be more than the last one
- 8:39Speaker 3: because it put twenty down on the last one. And
- 8:41Speaker 3: it's also a higher price. So uh, I'm going to
- 8:47Speaker 3: say nineteen hundred dollars. Wait, I like to do a year,
- 8:53Speaker 3: nineteen eighty five dollars. That didn't help it.
- 8:59Speaker 2: Well, just was laughing like that's a big jump just
- 9:01Speaker 2: to find a year, That's all I was really saying. Yeah,
- 9:05Speaker 2: I mean, I'm just thinking if you were thinking nineteen hundred,
- 9:08Speaker 2: I'd probably have thought of something cool with nineteen o
- 9:10Speaker 2: nine or nineteen twenty two or nineteen thirty four.
- 9:14Speaker 1: Well, I was thinking, that's the seventeen seventy seven back's
- 9:19Speaker 1: going to go.
- 9:19Speaker 2: They're at Yellowstone eighteen eighty something.
- 9:21Speaker 1: Or probably though, what did you say, five percent down, five.
- 9:25Speaker 2: Percent down, three hundred t nineteen, I don't know, nineteen
- 9:28Speaker 2: hundred and eighty five, nineteen eighty five four.
- 9:30Speaker 1: I said, I'm thinking it's going to be a little
- 9:33Speaker 1: bit lower, not very much, but I'm gonna go with
- 9:36Speaker 1: nineteen twenty.
- 9:37Speaker 2: One, nineteen twenty one. The actual payment was eighteen fifty four,
- 9:42Speaker 2: eighteen fifty four. Gusty gets round two.
- 9:45Speaker 1: But what happened that year? You tell me, I don't
- 9:50Speaker 1: think anything.
- 9:50Speaker 2: I'm sure something. I'm I'm scared to look it up.
- 9:52Speaker 1: I think my dad was born. I think my dad
- 9:54Speaker 1: was born in nineteen twenty three.
- 9:56Speaker 3: I think Texas might have become a state in eighteen
- 9:58Speaker 3: eighty fifty or so.
- 10:00Speaker 2: Yeah. Anyways, I wouldn't trying to lean you one way.
- 10:03Speaker 2: I just thought it was a big jump in the
- 10:07Speaker 2: wrong direction.
- 10:09Speaker 1: You know, I've got football calendars that that have gone out,
- 10:14Speaker 1: and uh, I guess I'm gonna have to come get

- 15:59Speaker 1: star reviews come in and each and every week. All right, y'all,
- 16:03Speaker 1: stay tuned. We're gonna talk about what we some of
- 16:05Speaker 1: the the results from our Crestwood open house. Uh, and
- 16:09Speaker 1: we're gonna talk a little bit about mortgage rates right
- 16:11Speaker 1: here on Botburn and Sold. Stay tuned, all right, Welcome
- 16:18Speaker 1: back to bob Burn and Sold. Thank you again for
- 16:20Speaker 1: joining us each and every week, and we want to
- 16:24Speaker 1: talk about what's going on, what we're seeing in the
- 16:26Speaker 1: real estate market we're seeing in the mortgage market. We
- 16:29Speaker 1: got Brad Smith with Cross Country Mortgage hanging out with us,
- 16:32Speaker 1: and but I wanted to touch base because earlier in
- 16:35Speaker 1: the show I was talking about, you know, we like
- 16:38Speaker 1: to talk, you know, talk about our open houses and
- 16:40Speaker 1: stuff like that, and so, you know, I find it
- 16:43Speaker 1: always interesting, like how many people are going to show
- 16:45Speaker 1: up at an open house and you know what kind
- 16:47Speaker 1: of you know, from a marketing standpoint, what kind of
- 16:50Speaker 1: feedback we get. But we last week, we had talked
- 16:52Speaker 1: about a home in Crestwood on fifty fourth Street we
- 16:56Speaker 1: had brought to market, and I'll kind of you a
- 17:00Speaker 1: little bit of backstory. I had some folks and I
- 17:03Speaker 1: was looking at the comparables, and my folks wanted to
- 17:09Speaker 1: list the house for a little bit more than I
- 17:12Speaker 1: wanted to. And so a lot of times what I
- 17:16Speaker 1: like to do is I like to look at price
- 17:17Speaker 1: points and try to price something where I know that
- 17:21Speaker 1: there's a good many buyers that are, you know, looking
- 17:24Speaker 1: at at an area and try to drum up enough
- 17:27Speaker 1: traffic so that a we can you know, get as
- 17:31Speaker 1: many showings as possible. B try to get as many
- 17:34Speaker 1: offers as possible and then see what that typically will
- 17:38Speaker 1: do is create a market where the market tells us
- 17:41Speaker 1: the value property. So I really pushed for a list
- 17:47Speaker 1: price of three point fifty, knowing we would get a
- 17:49Speaker 1: ton of traffic and let the market really set the
- 17:53Speaker 1: tone and set the price. And so we had sixteen
- 18:00Speaker 1: showings day one. I can't tell you the last house
- 18:04Speaker 1: we've had sixteen showings on the first day of the market. Okay,
- 18:10Speaker 1: it's probably been like since COVID.
- 18:11Speaker 2: I mean, that's amazing.
- 18:13Speaker 1: And those were all virtual tours, right or face mask
- 18:17Speaker 1: induced tours.
- 18:18Speaker 2: They were all six feet apart, yeah.
- 18:20Speaker 1: Right, sixteen people. Actually I think it was more because
- 18:25Speaker 1: there was one that I didn't even schedule a showing,
- 18:27Speaker 1: so I think it was actually seventeen showings. We had
- 18:31Speaker 1: ended up with five offers on the property. We had
- 18:33Speaker 1: other people that wanted to offer, and I literally was
- 18:35Speaker 1: telling people like, hey, if you don't bring your a game, like,
- 18:38Speaker 1: if you're just going to offer list price, like, I
- 18:40Speaker 1: don't want to waste your time. So we ended up
- 18:43Speaker 1: and it went for tens of thousands over list price.
- 18:45Speaker 2: Nice.
- 18:45Speaker 1: And so what I shared with my client, I said, look,
- 18:50Speaker 1: if we start a little bit lower. I think what
- 18:52Speaker 1: we'll end up doing is we'll actually net you more
- 18:54Speaker 1: money than us starting higher and then trying to find
- 18:57Speaker 1: out where the market is right. And so you know,
- 19:01Speaker 1: I pushed and I pushed and I fought back on
- 19:03Speaker 1: that price, and he finally was was cool enough to say,
- 19:06Speaker 1: all right, you do your thing. I'm trust you. You
- 19:10Speaker 1: do your thing, and it worked right. So we ended
- 19:14Speaker 1: up with an offer that had no inspection contingency because
- 19:17Speaker 1: they did a pre offer inspection. They did have financing,
- 19:21Speaker 1: so you know, when you're doing that, you're gonna go
- 19:23Speaker 1: up against typically some cash offers. Well, really smart on
- 19:27Speaker 1: their part, they put in an appraisal gap, so they
- 19:31Speaker 1: said if if for some reason the appraisal comes in lower,
- 19:35Speaker 1: they will pay the difference. So that helped us, you know,
- 19:39Speaker 1: as a competing you know, against the cash offers. So anyways,
- 19:43Speaker 1: you know, I was keeping my clients abreast of all
- 19:46Speaker 1: the offers coming in, and you know, they were like
- 19:49Speaker 1: every time an offer came in, like they would get
- 19:51Speaker 1: excited and then more excited, and then even more excited.
- 19:57Speaker 1: And so it's always fun when those kind of things happened.
- 20:00Speaker 1: And so anyways, at the end of it. He was like,
- 20:03Speaker 1: you know what, I'm I'm so glad you kind of
- 20:06Speaker 1: what you do.
- 20:07Speaker 2: That's why you do it for a living. Yes, that's
- 20:09Speaker 2: why we don't. So that's what I was going to
- 20:12Speaker 2: ask you, and not to be exact, get exact numbers,
- 20:14Speaker 2: but did it? Did it? Did you get it under
- 20:16Speaker 2: contract for more than he probably wanted to live originally?
- 20:19Speaker 1: Yes?
- 20:20Speaker 2: Yeah, so there you go. That's that's that's even cooler.
- 20:22Speaker 1: Yeah, you know what I mean for sure? Yeah, yeah, yes,
- 20:28Speaker 1: that's awesome.
- 20:29Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I know. Yeah, that's that's all I needed
- 20:32Speaker 2: to know. A good deal.
- 20:33Speaker 1: That's so that was fun. And then, by the way,
- 20:35Speaker 1: at open house, so we ended up putting it under
- 20:39Speaker 1: contract before open house, okay, and but we wanted to
- 20:43Speaker 1: keep the open house. By the way, we've got a
- 20:45Speaker 1: backup contract on it.
- 20:46Speaker 2: Ye.
- 20:46Speaker 1: Yeah, so that was pretty cool that we got that
- 20:49Speaker 1: that lined up, But we wanted to continue to have
- 20:52Speaker 1: the open house because we we worked with other people
- 20:54Speaker 1: in the neighborhood and there might be some other things,
- 20:56Speaker 1: but I bet I bet you probably another fifteen groups
- 21:01Speaker 1: came into an open house. So what that tells me is, hey, like,
- 21:05Speaker 1: if you've got a if you've got a home in Crestwood. Hey,
- 21:09Speaker 1: that's people want to be there. It's a great thing.
- 21:12Speaker 1: And then b if you want to sell it, you
- 21:14Speaker 1: need to call us at the Gusty Google's group because
- 21:17Speaker 1: we know of about thirty people looking.
- 21:20Speaker 2: You got third year right now.
- 21:22Speaker 1: So we can have a little bit of fun. We've
- 21:23Speaker 1: got multiple homes that are for selling under contract in Crestwood.
- 21:27Speaker 1: So and I lived in Crestwood, you know, over a
- 21:30Speaker 1: decade ago and loved it, and I've sold I don't
- 21:34Speaker 1: know how many houses. That's one of my favorite neighborhoods.
- 21:38Speaker 1: A lot of people that when they're relocating to town,
- 21:42Speaker 1: they like to be in in the Crestwood area. So,
- 21:45Speaker 1: but it was fun to have that success story. Sure.
- 21:47Speaker 1: And yeah, so anyways, uh, before we go, I know,
- 21:51Speaker 1: we need to get a little bit of an update
- 21:52Speaker 1: on mortgage rates. I know it's probably not the fun
- 21:55Speaker 1: news we like to hear.
- 21:57Speaker 2: I mean, I would say the good news this past
- 21:59Speaker 2: week is the fed it and move rates.
- 22:00Speaker 1: Up on the that would have hurt well if if.
- 22:04Speaker 2: That would not have been good. Yeah, I mean it's
- 22:06Speaker 2: just been it's just been telling of what they think.
- 22:08Speaker 2: So it just meant they're they want to wait and
- 22:10Speaker 2: see a little longer. Again, we're they're getting mixed numbers
- 22:13Speaker 2: because of the of the fuel cost stuff and everything
- 22:15Speaker 2: that's been built into it. But it is inflationary, so yeah,
- 22:18Speaker 2: it's they're not loving what it does with inflation. And
- 22:21Speaker 2: so there was there was some heavy talks where I
- 22:24Speaker 2: was nervous that they may bump it up a quarter
- 22:26Speaker 2: and so they didn't, and so that means they want
- 22:28Speaker 2: to get some more trailing data of where we're going
- 22:31Speaker 2: and what's going to happen. So that that was good.
- 22:35Speaker 2: Everything moved kind of latterly from there. Uh, the ten
- 22:38Speaker 2: years come down a little bit, the bonds are trading
- 22:41Speaker 2: a little better, but for the most part, it's just
- 22:44Speaker 2: been another flat week of nothing as far as mortgage
- 22:47Speaker 2: rates go. So when we're still in the upper sixes,
- 22:49Speaker 2: the two year yields are coming down a little bit,
- 22:51Speaker 2: which is which, which is which kind of gives us
- 22:53Speaker 2: a little bit of a tail sign of what the
- 22:54Speaker 2: other rate of what the fetch you do. So as
- 22:57Speaker 2: it been a little closer to to daily rates than
- 23:00Speaker 2: ten years, so we're starting to watch the two year
- 23:01Speaker 2: more as it being more short term and kind of
- 23:04Speaker 2: trying to dictate where and what the Fed's gonna do
- 23:06Speaker 2: with it. So that's kind of what we've been watching
- 23:08Speaker 2: and looking. But again, I still think we're gonna get
- 23:12Speaker 2: some relief. Uh. I just think that we've just got
- 23:15Speaker 2: to get some of this dad in and just kind
- 23:17Speaker 2: of what the market's doing. But but again, rates are
- 23:20Speaker 2: just kind of what you are, what they are, but
- 23:21Speaker 2: it's not it's not keeping people from moving forward by.
- 23:23Speaker 1: Analogis yeah, yeah, yeah, for sure.
- 23:25Speaker 2: So I mean it's still still we're still under I
- 23:27Speaker 2: mean it's still big thirty year fixed money.
