Kelly explains why HomeServices of America is emerging from the background after years as the industry's quiet giant. He shares how Berkshire Hathaway's long-term approach influences the way the company makes decisions and why he believes profitability deserves more attention across the industry. He touches on why waiting for the market to improve is not a business strategy. The conversation moves through affordability, AI, private listings, the future of MLSs, and the role of the National Association of Realtors as the industry continues to evolve. The episode closes with the NOISE vs. SIGNAL segment, where Kelly weighs in on private listing networks, AI replacing agents, attorneys leading brokerages, and whether today's MLSs are positioned for the next generation of real estate.
