The whole mortgage part hit me hard-like, you can’t just ‘take someone off the loan’?! Who knew?!
Yes I am glad it was helpful!
I love how you broke this down. Any tips for having these tough conversations with a friend before buying?
It can be tough but it really is about being honest and sitting down with each other and talking it through. Come into the conversation with no judgements, just hearing each other out. Hope this helps!
I had no clue the way you take title could make such a difference. What’s the best way to protect yourself in this situation?
Yes it's so important the way you take title because it can come back and bite you later if something happens.
Anyone looking for a friend to buy a house with 👀
Another great one!
Thank you!
Thanks for this one Laurel
You're welcome!
I needed this when I was going through my divorce. Still on the credit repair journey 😪
You got this!
Helpful every video! Thanks Laurel for sharing this!!
You're so welcome!
Great stuff!
Thanks!
Thank you for this breakdown!
Of course! Glad it can help 😇
So helpful!
This was so in depth, thank you for breaking it down!
I wanted to give digestible steps for divorcees navigating homeownership after divorce. Glad it was helpful!
i sold my own home. there was no stress. it was easy.
Why did I not think of this!!!
Yes! CDREs are trained to handle divorce cases and will help you navigate the process so much smoother!
Never considered this
Now you know!
Great one Laurel!
Thanks!
You’re kinda cute. I’ll give you an Oklahoma five. 👍🏻
Such a great program and the after learning is amazing. Thanks Laurel !
We want to make sure our agents always continue to keep learning and stay up to date!
Thanks for breaking down the whole process!
You're very welcome! It's definitely a process, but a worthwhile one for sure.
Thank god I saw this because we are about to start the process of selling our home and I learned so much from this video. Thank you!
You're welcome and good luck!
This is such a great tool for buyers and sellers because sometimes we wouldn't know what to look for in some agents.
Choosing an agent is such an important decision so knowing what you should look for beforehand is crutial!
Such a valuable information! Thanks

Laurel I think you are providing the content we all have been wanting. Thank you!
More is coming!
Laurel coming in with all the tips! This is so helpful.
Just want to provide value where I can 😇
Great content
Thank you!
Cry me a river!! You are trying so hard to justify “they can’t afford the house”!!!! If they can’t afford it, it is not My role To make it possible to buy more house than they can pay for! Bottom line is realtors make way too much for what they do. Theo commission should be a set fee, and for what they actually do, even 1.5% is a stretch!! YMMV!!
The higher it goes...the bigger the CRASH!
Companies buying homes to rent , the American people are doomed
Real estate prices need to come down somewhat to pre-Covid levels. They are too high, too inflated right now.
House pimps will soon be history
No income verification loans and LTV's more than 100%- you could get several mortgages on a residence. Pure madness.
Depression please
your comparing post 2008 crash data to pre crash 2024 data. if prices corrected 20percent how many would be under water.
For those who listed their homes during the holidays, did you face challenges with fewer showings? I want to know!
Has anyone else dealt with these challenges? What worked for you?
Yes. I have dealt with this situation a few times already. I have had to talk to both parties and make them understand that my job is to sell the property and I would not side with anyone. Made them understand that selling the property thats in default would avoid a foreclosure on their record.
Can you make a follow-up video on how to manage buyer confidence when a transaction is delayed by conflict?
Great idea and absolutely! That's always tricky.... but with the right approach, can be done! :) Stay tuned
I needed this as an agent who wants to get into divorce listings, these were great things to hear.
Glad to hear it. This can be a rewarding niche, so long as we are forever students of it!
