In today’s podcast, NAR’s Dr. Jessica Lautz shares important messages that members can use to educate neighbors, friends and clients about issues like local mortgage interest rate trends, foreclosures and the need for more home building.

Dr. Lautz, deputy chief economist and vice president of research at the National Association of REALTORS®, shared her ideas last week during the Illinois REALTORS® 2024 Fall Business Meetings at the Hilton Oak Brook Hills Resort in Oak Brook. By sharing accurate and useful information with others, she says,  REALTORS® can minimize the negative effects of misinformation.
