Owners heading into the holidays are far more open to solutions than they were 60 days ago.Then the national data dropped.Realtor.com is predicting double-digit growth in home sales for 2026, a 4% rise in prices, and zero expectation of price declines nationwide.That’s the national market finally echoing the trend Louisville has been showing all year.

I am curious to uncover how all the rest of the investors (and agents and brokers) here feel about real estate agents and real estate agent fees in today's digital age where we have so much information that we can dig up on our owns from: county records, mortgage/liens, previous purchase prices, land values, tax histories, rent price history and the advent of online listing services and other sources of real estate wholesale listings and auction agencies online.

Treat it like your “digital business card,” not your deal marketplace.

I hate that some people don't even try editing so it doesn't have the weird fonts and bold headlines.

And it’s why Louisville continues to be what it has always been: steady, durable, and consistently consistent.Here's the twist:The more national office distress you see,the more capital rotates into industrial, logistics, retail, and mixed-use redevelopment.And Kentucky is positioned right in that slipstream.Investors love stability.Companies love access.Workforces love affordability.And right as NAR is projecting double-digit home sales growth in 2026 and a 4% bump in prices, Kentucky is stacking real economic foundations, not headlines.
