We’re back and better than ever! In this freshly revamped episode of Shut the FRONT Door, Johnny and Scott return to the studio (finally with a producer — shoutout to Mason!) and jump straight into the real talk about real estate.

This episode breaks down the importance of keeping it simple — both in life and when preparing your home for sale. From managing seller expectations to decoding the feedback frenzy, the guys explain why obsessing over every flower arrangement and scented candle might not actually move the needle.

You’ll hear:

• Why the market—not your throw pillows—determines your home’s value
• Why buyers decide in 30 seconds (and how that changes everything)
• How agents can add massive value without always being front and center
• Real-life analogies, tech nerdery, and plenty of good laughs

Whether you're a seasoned seller or just curious about real estate, this episode is packed with relatable insight, candid truths, and the kind of hard-earned wisdom that only comes from showing thousands of homes.

In this April Fools (but seriously though) edition of Shut the FRONT Door, Scott and Johnny pull back the curtain on one of the most misunderstood corners of real estate: foreclosures.

From Johnny's legendary April pranks gone suspiciously quiet this year and then to the myth of snagging a “killer deal,” the guys break down why buying a foreclosure isn’t always the goldmine it’s hyped up to be. You'll hear real stories, brutal truths, and those frustrating, faceless asset managers in Utah who really don’t care about your leaking roof.

We’re talking:

• Why “foreclosure” doesn’t always equal “deal”
• How banks and government loans complicate everything
• Common first-time buyer mistakes
• Why experienced investors don’t chase the F-word (FORECSLOSURE... Get your minds out of the gutter)
• And yep… ChatGPT gets called out.

Whether you’re an investor, a curious first-timer, or just here for the banter, this episode is loaded with insight, laughs, and some hard-earned real estate wisdom.

🎧 Tune in and learn why your best deal might not be a foreclosure—and what to look for instead.
