Organic Opinions | Guest – Dave Jones


In this episode of the “Real Estate Coffee Shop Podcast”, our guest is Dave Jones who is the Owner/Operator at Windermere Abode in Tacoma, Washington.

I’ve done hundreds of interviews on a wide range of topics with a diverse group of people over the years. I firmly believe that the chat with Dave is one of the most enlightening and important conversations I’ve ever had.

Dave and I believe that the public knowing where you stand on the smallest and/or largest issues, as an individual and as a business, will ultimately have a positive impact on you, your “tribe”, and your community. Sharing a “well-read” opinion, as Dave says, isn’t always easy. Perhaps it’s because we focus on the potential adverse outcomes instead of the power that comes from giving a voice to those that don’t have one or are too reluctant to speak to an issue. His mindset, on sometimes divisive issues, of “both, and” instead of “either, or” is something we need to do much more of.

Here are the links to the articles we discussed in this week’s podcast.

This week’s news story … “There’s a Strong Bull Case for Metaverse Real Estate, Even as Crypto Plunges” and Dave’s article … “It’s Time We Pull Back the Racist Curtain in Real Estate”.

The interviews, masterminds and chats over coffee I’ve had with some of the brightest minds in the real estate industry have had a huge impact on my 29-year real estate career. In this Podcast, I invite you to pull up a chair and join my guests and me as we discuss a wide range of real estate topics.
