The Truth About Buying & Borrowing – No BS Real Estate Talk | The Closing Table | Ep. 1 Pilot 🎙️ Welcome to the very first episode of The Closing Table with Jeff & Javier!
In this debut episode, two seasoned real estate pros with nearly 40 years of combined experience pull back the curtain on the industry — from wild showing stories to how they survived (and thrived) through the 2008 crash and the post-pandemic housing shifts.

The truth about today’s real estate and mortgage markets
How buyers are winning with cash-backed offers
NAF Cash explained (turn your pre-approval into a cash offer)
What’s really going on with agent commissions and the NAR settlement
Why local lenders still matter
The emotional side of homeownership (and why tech can’t replace it)
And some hilarious real estate Q&A — yes, Chewbacca, and spreadsheets are involved 🧾👣
