27. The Intersection of Real Estate and Divorce With Bridget Potterton

For a long time, Bridget Potterton was afraid of being labeled a “divorce real estate agent.” She thought people would see her as an ambulance chaser—taking advantage of people. Now, she isn’t so afraid of the label. She realizes she is more of a surgeon than anything—she has the deep education and experience needed to truly help people.

In this episode, Bridget tells us about how she first ended up getting referrals from a family law firm. Then she outlines what she did in terms of building up her education, and what family law education programs are available for real estate agents today. Bridget then tells us her secret sauce: She provides a Continuing Education course for family law attorneys on how real estate works during divorce.

Bridget also gives us tips on handling real estate deals that involve divorce: Knowing how to be third party neutral, not disclosing familial status to buyers or agents, and holding space for stressed out clients.

This episode is packed with helpful information that every real estate agent should know. Bridget is an amazing educational resource for our community!
