Crazy Sh*t In Real Estate with Leigh Brown - Episode #64 with Pauline Relkey

Back in the day, when dealings for a home went down in person,
you’d experience the joy, firsthand, from sellers and buyers
alike, when they finally closed that deal. Pauline Relkey was
able to share in the joy of a first-time homebuyer as they closed
a deal in-person with the seller. However, everyone in that room
got a little bit more than they bargained. In this episode, Leigh
welcomes Pauline Relkey who has been in real estate for 26 years
and is from Regina, Saskatchewan, Canada.
