Spring offer season is here and it is melting everyone's brains.

Nick and Seth open on the whiplash of happy new-client calls and festering problem calls, then dig into a condo market drowning in inventory, a starter-buyer pool that is frozen in place, and the real math of renting versus owning. Plus a run of genuinely unhinged bad-deal stories.

In this episode:

• Condo inventory exploding while two-beds get passed over for three-beds at the same price
• Rent versus own, run live: a $420k East Boston condo against $2,700 rent
• The buyer pie chart for a $750k Winthrop single family
• Why the entry-level buyer is now closer to 40 than 27, and why so many sit stuck in lease-renewal limbo
• Listing edge: golden-hour photos, fewer clickbait images, and lockbox versus accompanied showings
• Bad deals: the agent who ghosts at closing, the agent who sold the wrong house, and a divorce that triggered a refi rescission
• An ex-wife's attorney dropping a lien on the property at the closing table
• Marry the house and date the rate, plus Nick's Aqua Bounty stock run and a safe full of "$18 million" in nickels
