About this listen
End-of-year escrows can get complicated — especially once the holiday closures begin.
In this episode of the Kern County Real Estate Review, Laurie sits down with returning guest Cecile Shanklin of Ticor Title to break down exactly how the holiday season affects escrow timelines — from recorder’s office closures and shortened work weeks to bank delays, year-end tax pushes, and those last-minute surprises that can throw a closing off track. Whether you’re a buyer, seller, or agent, Cecile shares what you should be planning for right now to avoid delays and keep your transaction on schedule.
This week’s news segment dives into a major industry headline: Zillow’s new ChatGPT app and why it’s raising questions across the real estate world about data control, IDX rules, and the future of AI-driven home search.
And to wrap up, Laurie shares an Equity Boosting Tip focused on creating an entertainer’s kitchen before the holidays — with simple, affordable upgrades that add comfort now and value later.
Tune in for expert insight, practical guidance, and everything you need to navigate the year-end real estate season with confidence.
