Pretty amazing video below. Incredible LIVE art acting as the backdrop for a musical journey that on any given night is rivaled by absolutely none.....

It looked incredible in person, creating an atmosphere that made you feel as if you were a part of something special or rare happening right then in that moment. As if by the end of the songs the universe would somehow reach out to you and hand you all the answers to life's mysteries. "Like a cloud dropping rain, you discard all thought" as the lights would rise and fall and ebb and flow with the "story" (the setlist) of that night's show; Which, oh by the way, is completely different every single night. Eddie Vedder is like the train conductor using voice, storytelling and raw power to keep the train on the tracks while making sure to stop at every emotional "station" along the journey. All aboard indeed. And I havent even mentioned the Mike McCready solos....Its the kind of thing where he finishes playing and youre left standing there trying to comprehend what actually just happened. He absolutely evicerates living matter, or Dark Matter in this case, (if u get that joke then good on ya) itself starting from the very atoms within only to put it all back together and land you back safely. If you were at all broken in any way before the night began, you are, if only for a brief, magical few hours, made to be whole.

Look, I get it. Im aware it Sounds "dramatic"....except its simply not! Lol It is just truth. I promise to you....this band is a whole different thing live. For me, I've seen them something close to 40 times live. But "this behavior's not unique" and there are fans from all over our great planet who have seen 100s of shows and will travel anywhere in the world to see our guys. There is a reason for this. If you've never had the opportunity to go see Pearl Jam live, PLEASE go do it. No questions or hesitation. You can thank me when we see each other there!

End of random rant....but it needs to be said sometimes!

Your agent should be your local area expert.

Your "Zestimate" isn't just wrong. It's expensive.

Here's what that free Zillow estimate really costs you:

You see $750k on your screen. You get attached to that number. It becomes YOUR number. You tell friends that number. You make plans based on that number. You NEED that number.

But the market doesn't care about your screen addiction.

The market sees:

Your neighbor's identical house that sold for $675k
The three active listings at $680k sitting for 45 days
The buyer pool that disappears above $700k
The appraisal comps that scream $675k

You list at $750k anyway.
Because Zillow said so.

Week 1: "Testing the market"
Week 4: "Where are the showings?"
Week 8: First price reduction to $725k
Week 12: Desperation drop to $699k
Week 16: Sold for $650k to a wholesaler who smelled blood

The math Zillow won't show you:

Lost carrying costs: $12,000 (4 months)
Lost appreciation: $8,000 (market went up while you went stale)
Lost negotiating power: $5,000 (desperate sellers pay for everything)
Actual loss from overpricing: $25,000 GONE

The cruelest part?
If you'd listed at $675k:

Multiple offers in week one
Bid up to $690k
Closed in 30 days
Moved on with your life

But that would require trusting a professional over an algorithm designed to keep you scrolling, not sell your house.

Your agent tried to tell you. They showed you the comps. The absorption rates. The buyer psychology. The pricing strategy that creates competition instead of crickets.

You showed them your phone.

Here's what Zillow is ACTUALLY good for:

Entertainment
Dreaming
Stalking your ex's house
Wasting time at work

Here's what it's NOT good for:

Pricing your largest asset
Making financial decisions
Replacing 20 years of market expertise
Anything involving actual money

That app isn't free. It's the most expensive app on your phone.

The difference between Zillow and a real agent isn't information. It's interpretation. It's strategy. It's knowing that pricing isn't what you want.

But sure, keep trusting the algorithm that makes money from your clicks, not your success.

Just remember this post when you're on day 127, taking any offer you can get.
