Most clients come to us with the obvious questions well prepared – what’s my property worth, where should I buy, which agent should I use.
But some of the most consequential questions are the ones that never get asked.
In this episode, Jarrod walks through the questions and actions that buyers and sellers routinely overlook – and explains why the answers can make a material difference to the outcome.
- How time limits on buying services can reveal whether your agent’s motivations are aligned with yours

- Why spending your full budget isn’t always the smartest move.
