The Golfi Real Estate Show

What happens when real estate rules, professional responsibility, and client trust all get tested in real time during home showings?
Rob Golfi takes a deeper dive into the realities of how properties are shown in today’s market and why the way agents handle access matters more than most people realize. The conversation goes beyond a single incident and opens up a broader discussion about showing practices, lockbox security, and the expectations clients should be able to have when they list their home.
Rob also talks through the responsibilities that come with being a Realtor, especially when it comes to protecting a seller’s property and maintaining clear professional standards. When those standards aren’t followed, things can quickly become complicated, not just for the agents involved, but for the clients who are trusting them with one of their biggest assets.
