In this episode, we dive into the unique side of real estate that most agents never experience—selling investment-grade and distressed properties without the glossy photos, staged furniture, or traditional property tours. Lissette and Lucian share how they’ve built a system of transparency, efficiency, and risk management that allows them to close dozens of deals a year without ever setting foot in many of the homes they sell. From navigating disclosures and liability to creating customized sellers’ addendums that level the playing field, they explain why upfront honesty and clear expectations are key when working with buyers’ agents who aren’t used to distressed property deals. They also talk about the importance of separating retail from investment language, why representing the company (not buyers) keeps risk low, and how they’ve learned to protect both themselves and their business through every contract. This conversation is packed with real-world insight into building trust, minimizing liability, and keeping control on the sales side of distressed real estate.
