“I used to be the largest dairy consumer on the planet. I used to eat so much dairy and meat. The more that I looked into the dairy industry, the more that I saw that it was the singular, most inhumane industry on the planet, that we've all been lied to, including myself, for years. I always believed that the picture on the milk carton, the cow standing next to her calf in the green field with the red barn in the back was true. It’s certainly the complete opposite.” – Richard (Kudo) Couto Richard (Kudo) Couto is the founder of Animal Recovery Mission (ARM), an organization solely dedicated to investigating extreme animal cruelty cases. ARM has led high-risk undercover operations that have resulted in the shutdown of illegal slaughterhouses, animal fighting rings, and horse meat trafficking networks. Recently, they released a damning investigation into two industrial dairy farms outside of Phoenix, Arizona supplying milk to Coca-Cola’s Fairlife brand. What they uncovered was systemic animal abuse, environmental violations, and a devastating betrayal of consumer trust. While Fairlife markets its products as being sourced "humanely," ARM’s footage tells a very different story—one of suffering, abuse, and corporate complicity. Despite the evidence, this story has been largely ignored by mainstream media—likely due to Coca-Cola’s massive influence and advertising dollars.…

In this episode of The Ken Jones Real Estate Show, Ken analyzes the conflict between the cost of housing and the relatively low level of resale housing inventory as it relates to the importance of selecting the presidential candidate whose policies and credibility are most likely to improve our economy and our housing market.

Should Sellers Pay Buyer Agents? This is one of the most hotly debated and controversial issues in the residential real estate brokerage business and has serious legal and financial implications for home sellers, homebuyers, and real estate agents. In this episode, Ken explains the substance of the lawsuits, judgments, and settlement agreements against the National Association of REALTORS®, as well as the historic changes to the way real estate agents must now deal with sellers and buyers. He also discusses the fact that many agents and major national brokerage firms are making a concerted effort to circumvent the new commission sharing rules by coercing sellers into paying buyer agents. If you're a homeowner, a homebuyer, or a real estate agent, this is one episode of The Ken Jones Real Estate Show that you do not want to miss. 0000007F 00000069 000019E8 00001468 00005B6D 00005B6D 00005C35 0000528F 00002F24 00002F24…
If you're a real estate agent, you know the residential real estate business has just undergone some historically radical changes. Now that all the big changes from the National Association of REALTORS® lawsuit settlement agreement have gone into effect, now what? How is this going to impact your business? Are you going to make less money? Are you going to have work harder just to survive? Are you going to encounter more competition? I discuss all these issues, and more, in this episode of The Ken Jones Real Estate Show. This is a "don't miss" episode for serious real estate agents. 000000B1 0000008F 000019E8 00001468 00005B6D 00005B6D 00006BF2 00005D24 000A76C6 000A76C6…
Buyer agents are now legally required to have a home buyer sign a buyer-agency contract outlining a variety of things, including how long the contract will be and how much the buyer may have to pay them before the agent is even allowed to show that buyer a house; a house the buyer may not even like. In this very short DO-NOT-MISS episode of The Ken Jones Real Estate Show, Ken discusses this overburdensome regulation that puts the buyer agent in a very difficult, no-win situation. 000000DF 000000B6 000020FC 00001906 00049B97 00049B97 00005C34 00005290 00002F24 00002F24…
There's a historically chronic problem in the real estate brokerage industry, specifically in the residential real estate brokerage industry. A problem that is going to have very serious consequences on that sector of the real estate brokerage industry unless something major is done to correct it. That problem is the virtual absence of professional training of residential real estate agents, especially regarding their understanding, or the absence thereof, of their legal responsibilities. In this episode of The Ken Jones Real Estate Show, I address this issue headon to shine a spotlight on this critically important subject. 000000BB 00000097 00002139 00001934 0003619C 0003619C 00005C34 00005290 00002F24 00002F24…

Are all these lawsuits against NAR and the major real estate brokerage firms providing a valuable service to the general public? Did the Biden Administration play a part in generating or promoting these lawsuits? If not, why did the Department of Justice (DOJ) get involved in them? Why is it only the residential real estate brokerage sector of the greater real estate brokerage industry being singled out in these lawsuits? Is it all part of a greater plan to destroy the residential real estate brokerage industry? If these issues concern you, listen to this episode of The Ken Jones Real Estate Show to hear Ken's examination of these issues and his opinions. 0000014A 00000103 000031CD 000025C7 00029B58 00029B58 00007EF0 00006DE0 0007E1F5 0007E1F5…

In this episode of The Ken Jones Real Estate Show, I identify many of these unusual events, my analyses of them, and what leads me to question if the federal government, through the use of the U.S. Department of Justice, is intentionally trying to bankrupt the NAR and these major brokerage firms with the goal to destroy the residential real estate brokerage business. I look forward to your thoughts and opinions on this topic. 000000D9 000000AE 000029A9 00001FCB 00004ACB 00004ACB 000076FF 00006BD2 0000137D 00001E82…

A lot of real estate agents and brokers are unaware of what branding is and what it's not. They also interchangably use the terms "marketing" and "advertising," as if they were the same thing (which they definitely are NOT). In this episode of The Ken Jones Real Estate Show I define each of these terms, explain their proper use, and give practical examples of each so they can be easily remembered. 000000B5 00000092 000019BC 0000133D 0000490F 0000753E 000060A9 000053A2 0000490F 000048F5…

CHANGE is the only constant that continually occurs throughout the entireties of both our personal and business lives; it is an inevitable and unavoidable fact of life. As for the changes that occur in our businesses, they're generally easier to predict and to prepare to overcome.
