October Research, LLC debuted its new “Keys to Real Estate” podcast, hosted by Chief Knowledge Officer Mary Schuster, on May 16. Industry professionals can now hear from some of the most knowledgeable thought leaders on topics impacting the real estate transaction while on the go, delivered weekly on Thursdays via various podcast platforms and YouTube.
The Keys to Real Estate podcast complements October Research’s extensive roster of educational publications The Title Report, The Legal Description, RESPA News, Dodd Frank Update and Valuation Review, as well as special reports, webinars and blog, covering the latest developments affecting compliance experts, title agents, settlement services providers, attorneys, mortgage lenders and appraisers. The company also produces the National Settlement Services Summit (NS3) and the Women’s Leadership Summit.
“We’re excited to add Keys to Real Estate as another trusted independent source in our portfolio of market intelligence offerings,” October Research CEO and Publisher Erica Meyer said. “We know that free resources are especially sought after in the current environment, and we’re thrilled to offer information that complements the articles and interviews in our family of publications.”
Schuster brings over 25 years of title industry experience to each engaging conversation with some of the most preeminent industry veterans and insightful minds in the rapidly changing real estate landscape. Prior to joining October Research, she held vice president and branch manager positions in title and settlement and most recently was chief product officer at RamQuest.
“In this critical time when the marketplace is rapidly changing, I find that having multiple trusted sources of information is more important now than ever,” she said. “Our guests are some of the best in the business, and we’re pleased to offer a new avenue and opportunity to let listeners focus in on the hot topics shaping business today.”
Anyone attending the 2024 NS3, May 21-23, in Naples, Fla., will have the opportunity to watch a live recording of a Keys to Real Estate episode featuring former Federal Housing Finance Agency Director Mark Calabria, who currently is a senior advisor to the Cato Institute.
You can listen to the first installment of the Keys to Real Estate podcast with industry legend and retired Mayer Brown Partner Phillip Schulman in an episode aptly titled, “The Power of Humor in Business.” This long-form conversation delves into the types of insights one can only glean from someone who lived and breathed regulatory compliance for more than four decades.
“I’m a big fan of October Research,” Schulman told Schuster at the beginning of the episode. “October Research has allowed me really to help build my practice. … I probably spoke at every NS3 conference from the very first one until just before I retired.”
Keys to Real Estate is available via Apple Podcasts, Spotify and on the October Research YouTube channel. By subscribing, interested professionals will automatically receive each new episode delivered directly into their feed.
“October Research continues to invest in the products and offerings our subscribers need to thrive in their real estate-related careers,” Meyer added. “We believe that ‘Knowledge is The Competitive Advantage,’ and are committed to helping our audience remain tooled for success.”
