Bobbie Wasserman
In this podcast, we discuss real estate commission changes in residential real estate, with sought after real estate expert Nicole Christopherson.
Nicole has earned a stellar reputation which has been recognized with industry awards and over 55 five-star reviews on Zillow. She started her real estate career in Orange County, CA and now brings her passion and business acumen to the Texas Hill Country suburbs and up-and-coming regions outside of central Austin. Nicole currently serves on several real estate boards and committees, giving her invaluable insights and awareness of today’s ever-changing society, culture, and market.
Key Takeaways:
- Interview several real estate agents and ask them hard questions. Remember you want a trusted advisor, not just a salesperson.
- Real estate commissions changes impact both sellers and buyers. Commissions have always been negotiable; the transparency of that reality will now be apparent.
- We are only at the beginning of changes in the real estate industry – which is being disrupted on several fronts. In 5-7 years, the industry will most likely operate completely differently.

The post Foundation Repair Secrets Every Homeowner Should Know appeared first on Single Lady Estates.
As we wrap-up the third season of the Single Lady Estates podcast, Bobbie looks back at the stellar list of experts who joined her to talk about advocacy in its many forms.
From advocating for your own space and well-being to taking on local and federal governmental agencies about homeownership issues. We heard courageous stories from our guests about their advocacy journey and were inspired by their steadfast determination.
Legal MattersWhen advocating for yourself, having a great attorney in your corner is key. So, Bobbie spoke with municipal law and family law attorneys to gain insight into municipal, code compliance, and family law issues. Their knowledge and expertise (while not legal advice) did shed light on what women can do to protect themselves and their assets before, during, and after marriage.
Real Estate InvestingWhether looking to add rental income properties or build a real estate portfolio, Bobbie provided key insights from experts in the field. From getting started with your first real estate investment to a deep dive into the manufactured and mobile home sector.

Bobbie is joined by Emily Grosvenor, author of Finding Yourself at Home: A Conscious Approach to Shaping Your Space and Your Life .
A Fulbright scholar turned magazine editor, Emily realized traditional design books were missing the mark. She craved “a new way to think about the home space” beyond current practices.
Her book guides readers through five to tailor spaces around their needs and values.
Emily says the modern day practice of multipurpose rooms leads to unclear cues which can be stressful. She suggests crafting purposeful spaces like the Victorians did – a proper place for everything.
Want to refresh a space? Consider rotating art to explore your changing sense of self. Emily also shares feng shui tips for design and manifesting goals.
Key Takeaways:* Carve out separate zones for activities * Be open to discovering your design style with textures, colors, and shapes * Make design choices aligned with your values

When it comes to the smooth operation of your home, there is nothing better than having them all operate seamlessly. However, what happens when plumbing gets backed up or you discover a water leak? Summertime temps can reach triple-digits and having cool temps inside makes for a more comfortable experience. In today’s modern world, everything we use for work and home requires electricity. So who do you turn to when your home’s systems break down?
In today’s episode we hear from Robin Wurzel from 1st Home and Commercial Services in Austin, TX.
Robin shares how her 28-year former career as an international flight attendant with American Airlines gave her an appreciation for a diversity of mindsets and an ability to really listen. Skillsets which has both grown the business and enhanced the customer experience.
She shares inexpensive DIY tips for home systems and the types of repairs which are best left to the experts. Robin also has a great tip for new homes in the midst of construction.
Robin’s DIY Tips: Your HVAC (heating, ventilation, and air conditionin*g) unit is like the lungs of your home. So to ensure it can breath properly be sure to change out the air filter often. * When looking at a future home purchase, check electrical outlets for burn marks. This could be a sign of an electrical issue which should be addressed. * A home systems maintenance plan can extend the life of your HVAC systems and spot minor issues before they become major problems.

Dr. Regina Lark is a board certified professional organizer. She is also a frequent speaker and educator on topics ranging from women’s leadership, emotional labor, time management, productivity, hoarding, and ADHD. (full bio)
In this episode Regina shares the non-linear path which put her on the road to a career as a professional organizer. She offers insight into the roots of clutter and the invisible mental load many women face alone. Regina provides us with simple and actionable steps we can take to begin the process of decluttering our homes. And it all starts with the kitchen junk drawer.
Regina’s Step-by-Step Junk Drawer Decluttering Tips:1. Schedule decluttering on your calendar. 2. Write down how long you think it will take to clear out the junk drawer. Maybe 20 minutes or so. 3. Clear the counter above the junk drawer. 4. Lay down an old sheet or towel on the counter. 5. Put a warm soapy bowl on the counter next to the sheet/towel. 6. Put one recycle bin and one trash bin on the either side of you on the floor. 7. Set a timer for 20 minutes. 8. Pull out the drawer and dump it all on the sheet/towel. 9. During the 20 minutes of sorting DO NOT LEAVE YOUR STATION. * Sort: + Trash goes in the trash + Recycle items (plastic, paper, etc) goes into recycle bin + Keys and coins go straight into the soapy water 10. Once 20 minute time is finished see how far you got. Did you finish? Do you need more time? Write down your results. This is the information you’ll need to know when you schedule time for your next declutter session.

We think the Single Lady Estates community will appreciate this informative and hard-hitting episode on structural safety and home inspections.

Joe has extensive experience in Real Estate Due Diligence and Forensic Engineering and was featured in National News Coverage of the Surfside Condo collapse in Florida in 2021, where he was sought out as a national expert in discussing that structural disaster.
Joe’s home inspection advice:1. Understand the cost savings vs the risk. 2. Going with the lowest home inspection bid may wind up being a costly decision. 3. Pay attention to the recommendations made by your home inspector. 4. Do your due diligence. Structural issues are better discovered BEFORE a home purchase.

This episode is the first of a two-part condominium building structural safety series. In the wake of the Surfside condominium collapse in Florida, this series is meant to give the Single Lady Estate community information to consider when purchasing a condo along the East, West, or Gulf Coasts.
Josh Thompson is CEO and Founder of Thompson Exterior Services which is a full-service exterior building service company servicing the Northeast.
Josh joins us to talk about how potential and current coastal condominium homeowners can take a proactive approach towards understanding their building’s structural maintenance plans.
The importance of condo building maintenance and structural integrity was brought into sharp focus after the collapse of the Champlain Towers South, a 12-story beachfront condominium in the Miami suburb of Surfside, Florida on June 24, 2021.
Bobbie and Josh discuss how the Surfside condominium collapse has already changed building recertification laws. He also touches on the differences between building recertification in New York City (every 5 years) and Florida (every 40 years at the time of the collapse).
NOTE: May 2022, Florida passed the Condominium and Structural Safety Law: “Recertification will be required after 30 years, or 25 years if the building is within 3 miles (5 kilometers) of the coast, and every 10 years thereafter. The Champlain Towers South was 40 years old and was going through the 40-year-recertification process required by Miami-Dade County when it collapsed last June”. – U.S. News
Here are a few tips Josh recommends when considering a beachside condominium purchase:
- Find out what the HOA and building management is doing about preventative maintenance.
- Know what systems are in place to monitor, forecast, and execute building maintenance.
- Know the most recent inspection and the frequency of required building recertification in your local area.
- Be aware of the financial oversight to ensure residents are not surprised by an unexpected but critical building maintenance expense.
- Find out if the building has an emergency alert system (text/app) in place to alert residents.

Sarah Williams shares the home buying trends of her New York City, Miami, and overseas high-end clientele before, during, and post-pandemic. She also gets candid on being a successful millennial woman in real estate.
Societe Real Estate is a privately-owned, bespoke Real Estate Agency in New York City, South Florida and London servicing a wide range of domestic and overseas clientele from New York City to Miami Beach and from the UK to the South of France.
Sarah’s Realtor Tips…FOR BUYERS:
“If you are a buyer and you’re looking for the right real estate agent, I highly recommend you hire somebody you like a lot. Because you’re likely going to be spending a lot of time with that person…”
FOR SELLERS:
“When you’re a seller. Hire somebody you trust. That person is in your home without you being there. Are they respectful of your shoe requirements? Are they going to respect your showing schedule? So I think a lot of the sell side has to do with trust and respect.

Bryce Fuller is a real estate agent servicing the Chicagoland area with The Fuller Force at Baird Warner Real Estate. As a part of a family of real estate agents, Bryce details the value of working with a team of real estate specialists.
Bryce focuses on the keys to finding the right home for Chicagoland area homebuyers. For single women homeowners, Bryce spoke about a recent client home buying experience for a single mom and her two teenage daughters. A few factors of importance were:
- Safety
- Access to public transportation
- Close proximity to city conveniences Bryce discusses how rising interest rates and the seasonal cooling of the real estate market have brought about a shift for both buyers and sellers.
…higher interest rates, coupled with inflation, coupled with people who are very unsure about the economy is causing sellers to become incredibly challenged at this moment in time. Yes, they want what their neighbor got and they’re not going to get it right now…
The Chicagoland area encompasses hi-rise city living and rural housing amongst the corn fields. Which offers home buyers housing location options depending on whether access to city-wide amenities or space to spread out are the driving factors of a home purchase decision.
For anyone who has recently moved to Chicagoland from warmer climates, Bobbie and Bryce share winter success tips. Hint: You’ll need a good selection of durable winter clothes and an understanding of the best options for inner city travel during the winter months.
