Ep #66: What's New in Real Estate for 2026 & Current Outlook with Elizabeth Nunan, CEO of Houlihan Lawrence

Ep #68: ChatGPT Has Answers. Your Local Agent Has Insight.

Can AI help you buy or sell a home more effectively? In this episode, I explore that question by putting ChatGPT to the test. As artificial intelligence becomes a bigger part of everyday life, many buyers and sellers are using it to research neighborhoods, understand financing, compare homes, and even prepare for negotiations. While AI can be a powerful tool, I wanted to examine where it adds value and where local expertise still makes all the difference. With the help of Byram Hills student Tyler Kravitz, I interview ChatGPT using common questions that buyers and sellers ask throughout the real estate process. We cover everything from affordability and pre-approvals to bidding wars, pricing strategies, renovations, and timing the market. Along the way, I share my perspective on which answers are helpful, where important context is missing, and why hyper-local knowledge cannot be replicated by algorithms alone.
