Some of our favorite quotes from the show:
“One of the things that’s going to cause confidence to return, is when interest rates start falling, and that keeps getting pushed further and further out, doesn’t it?” – Michael Yardney
“We’ve just got to remember what happened after COVID, when people suddenly realised life was going to move on. Buyer sentiment turns before seller sentiment does. So, all of a sudden more buyers come into the market.” – Michael Yardney
“Pay attention to those who you work with, who work for you, and if they don’t add anything to your life or your business, but in particular if they cause cars and problems, don’t excuse it, don’t excuse their behavior.” – Michael Yardney
