Jeff sat down with Judd Hoffman on Fargo Talks to talk about how AI is reshaping real estate. Here's what actually gets lost in that conversation.
In this clip, Judd breaks down the sheer number of roles a real estate agent quietly juggles in a single day, far beyond just showing houses. It's a side of the job most clients never see.
Judd Hoffman spent 25 years in real estate and title, including as president of the direct division at First American Title, before co-founding Ethica AI, a voice-AI platform now offered as a free member benefit through the California Association of Realtors.

Q: Why do real estate agents charge a 1-3% commission?
Beyond marketing and negotiating a sale, agents often act as a de facto contract reviewer, project manager, and advisor for the entire transaction. That work extends well past the sale itself.
Q: What does a real estate agent actually do besides show homes?
Agents handle prospecting, marketing, contract compliance, scheduling, and client support. That often means filling roles closer to a lawyer, accountant, or personal assistant.
