In Good Company with Lisa Evans

24/09/2025

David Kaity - Property Selling Consultant will join me on the show In Good Company with Lisa Evans 89 7FM Perth.

We will be chatting about Decoding real estate agent marketing spin

Spring has sprung, and in the property market it’s traditionally the most active season, as buyers and sellers emerge from their winter hibernation.
For sellers, choosing an agent often comes down to who’s most visible on billboards, bus shelters, and for sale signs in their local area.
Agent ads will often claim they’re an area’s top-selling agent, but should you choose an agent to sell your property based on that claim to fame?
Not in my view. Industry awards reward agents with the highest number of sales and not the highest sale prices, and those agents usually prioritise quicker turnover rather than achieving the highest sale prices.
Engaging an award-winning top-selling agent is no guarantee you’ll get the best possible price for your property; in fact, the opposite may be true.
So, what criteria should you use when choosing an agent to sell your home?

On the show tomorrow Thursday 25 September , i will be chatitng with Dr Marjorie Collins about the critical issue of head knocks in contact sports.

AFL player Adam Hunter’s posthumous diagnosis of Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy (CTE) adds to the growing need to protect players from long term brain injury caused by repeated knocks to the head.

While CTE can only be definitively diagnosed after death, there are symptoms well before death, including mood disturbances, personality changes, impulsivity, memory loss, and cognitive decline.
Hunter suspected he had CTE before he died, and his family reported changes in his behaviour and mental health which aligned with CTE. Hunter’s case highlights the importance of refining safety protocols in contact sports to more adequately protect players from suffering long term effects of repeated head knocks.

Wearing helmets when playing footy and other contact sports isn’t the answer, as research shows helmets do not protect the brain from moving inside the skull, and it’s this impact against the skull that causes CTE.
