Welcome to the show! Today’s guest is Casey Powers, Broker and Property Manager at Strawberry Realty Property Management in Las Vegas, Nevada. Casey is here to chat with us about the new iBuyer phenomena that has hit the real estate industry, what iBuyer means and how agents can compete. Casey breaks down how she believes traditional real estate agents can fight back in this market and how having the means to make cash offers on homes allows agents to keep a level playing field. She also talks about why these new convenience based companies are making property managers nervous and what it means for the rental market down the road.  Listen in as this conversation brings to light what is happening with Amazon and Zillow, the pros and cons to the iBuyer concept and the choices that consumers now have to make between convenience and knowledge.
